My headcanon name for Ancient Greece is "Helene," both for Helen of Troy and as a reference to the fact that the actual name for Greece is "Hellas."

  The two OCs on either side of Mama Greece and Baby Greece are Byzantine Empire (left) and the Exarchate of Ravenna (right). These two are Ancient Greece's kids with Rome. I know there's a suggestion that Ancient Greece became the Byzantine Empire, but that just never sat right with me as the two were very culturally distinct and it makes more thematic sense for Byzantium to be Ancient Greece's son with Rome. Byzantine Empire (Human name: Constantius Valerius Theodorus): He was one of Rome's bastard children whom Rome officially acknowledged. When Rome split the empire, he took charge of the east while Rome's firstborn, legitimate son Ramnes (the father of the Italy brothers) took the west. Byzantium took the lead in the empire, gradually overshadowing his brother thanks to the influence of Ancient Greece, who was playing the long game to basically usurp the empire from Rome in revenge for Rome having made her his concubine. When the west fell to the Germanic invaders and Ramnes was killed, Byzantium proclaimed himself the rightful heir of Rome and declared that any nation seeking to claim his title was a pretender. Of course, due to his adherence to Eastern Orthodoxy, Byzantium had become a major foe of the Pope, resulting in the Papal States/Vatican City/Holy See to recognize the Holy Roman Empire as the true successor to Rome despite him being German. Byzantium continued trying to reclaim his western "birthright" from what he saw as usurpers. Byzantium would later be killed by Turkey, who seized his lands to rise as the Ottoman Empire. Exarchate of Ravenna/Romagna (Human name: Gaia Valeria Helena): Byzantium's twin sister and another of Rome's recognized bastard children. Initially, she represented the city of Ravenna, a prosperous port city that even took Rome's place as the capital of the empire for a time. Ravenna became the last holdout of Byzantine Empire in Italy as the Exarchate of Ravenna, following the overthrow of the Ostrogoths. She came to deeply hate the Germanic kingdoms and especially Charlemagne, as he stole vast numbers of treasures from her city with the pope's approval. Likewise, she also despised Vatican City and warred with him constantly, even after she was forced to become part of the Papal States. She managed to hold on for a long time by clinging to her city and its people; however, she was ultimately killed in the late 1700s by France. Artist Note: The thing that took up most of the time I spent on this was the background. Right above the heads of the characters, you can see a bit of Byzantine propaganda. Young Byzantium is shown receiving a laurel wreath from Rome while Ancient Greece and Ravenna look on, signifying that Byzantium was Rome's chosen successor and lawful heir. The little gold sparkles all over the place are supposed to be gold mosaic tiles (Byzantines loved their gold and purple).

Sorry for putting Hetalia on your dashboard in 2024, but this has been vaguely on my mind for, like, five years.

ITALIANS LOVE TO PLAY WITH BLONDE PEOPLE

Ancient Rome belongs to Hidekaz Himaruya. My human name for him is Gaius Valerius Romanus. OCs from my Hetalia fic "World Histories Collection": www.fanfiction.net/s/13451091/… Latium (Human name: Lavinia Valeria Silva): Ancient Rome's mother. She was a highly-respected kingdom of ancient Italy, but her son was often treated with contempt and disdain by other Italic peoples when he was a child. 

Etruria (Human name: Tarchon): Ancient Rome's father. He and Latium had a fling that resulted in Rome, but Etruria, himself, never acknowledged Rome as his son. Sabine (Human name: Clodia Aemilia Sabina): Rome's wife. He abducted her when she and her people visited his city for a festival. Despite basically being forced into marrying him, Sabine has grown to love her husband and his constant infidelity causes her a lot of pain. She is the daughter of Umbria and Osca, neither of whom like Rome. Sabine and Rome had three children together, the three original Romulean tribes. Ramnes (Human name: Lucius Valerius Romanillus): The first of the three Romulean tribes, comprised of the Latins. He eventually came to represent the Western Roman Empire after it was split. He is the father of many Italian city-states, as well as both Northern and Southern Italy. He was always Rome's favorite child, though the two of them did have a major fight when Rome hooked up with Ancient Egypt. He was married twice; first to Magna Graecia, whom he divorced, and later to Adriatic Veneti. He was killed during one of the sackings of Rome. Tities (Human name: Titus Valerius Sabinus): The second of the Romulean tribes, representing the Sabine population in Rome. Due to how the Sabines became largely integrated with the general Roman populace, he struggled to find a new group to attach his existence to. Ultimately, his lack of identity and his resentment of his older brother led Tities and Ramnes to lead rival factions in every Roman civil war until the assassination of Julius Caesar. Tities was one of the assassins and died shortly after Brutus and Cassius were defeated. Luceres (Human name: Gaia Valeria Lasa): The third Romulean tribe, she initially represented the Etruscans in Rome (possibly, it is unclear). Like Tities, her people largely blended into the Roman populace, but she was able to last by attaching her identity to the Vestal Virgins. Due to being a nation, and unable to die, she would substitute herself for any Vestals falsely accused of sexual immorality and be buried alive in their place; she would then dig herself out and return to the temple. She eventually faded away after the College of Vestals was dissolved in the 380s.
