The national animal of Bay12 is the Penguin.

At least, until the next fad comes along.

I had always seen the USA as a country in the "troubled late teen" years where it isnt really sure what it wants to be when it grows up, and is prone to random emotional outbursts. Canada is the older brother or sister in its early 20's so desperatley trying to be a good example. Mexico is the random poor kid that keeps hanging around.

This of course places most of the EU in its early 60's or 70's, just on the harmless and humourous side of senility. France is a batty old lady. Italy is a creepy old man. The UK is a stereotypical old army major. Sweeden is your mates inexplicably fit older mum... and so on.

This reminds me of a historical cartoon a friend and I wanted to make, with countries represented by children who would pick on each other in parodies of war, politics, and diplomacy.

It was a joke back then, but as I think about it, it seems fairly accurate. If a mob has the mind of a five-year-old, how smart is an entire country of people?

Quote from: Hetalia - Wikipedia
Both positive and negative cultural stereotypes form part of each character's personality, though note some expectations differ since the series is based in Japanese cultural views of the world.

I don't want no Japanese viewpoints of the world! I want to indoctrinate the children with a wholesome American viewpoint of the world!

Goddamnit penguins everywhere.

I think I'll go get a leopard seal avatar to help cut down on the overpopulating penguins going on here.

I remember why I originally quit my current job in the first place.

Us Welsh clearly have the best animal. Even if it is mythical.
I'm not sure it beats the Scottish unicorn.

I hope not. I think it was shit like that (among other things, of course) that got VN obliterated.

I think my bedroom was designed by the architects of R'lyeh, or perhaps Room 1408. I lose things in this room alone and find them anywhere from hours to months later in places I can't remember them being anywhere near, the cracks in the ceiling look identical from most angles, and last night when I turned the light off I apparently moved a foot and a half to the left without moving my body.

One of the saner options available.
