Iceland: Alright, what pizza toppings should we order?

Vinland: Anchovies and pineapple.

Helluland: I like beets!

Markland: Have you guys ever had a cheese-less pizza?

Iceland: I’m disowning all of you.

You had a Vinland OC, right? Can I request E1 with Vinland?

Who would be America and. Canada biological dad or mom

I don’t think America or Canada have a biological parent. Greece and Egypt are the only countries I can think of who have canon biological “moms,” but they don’t have a dad because chibi nations seem to spring out of the Earth fully formed and are not born the same way human beings are. The Italy brothers have a grandfather, and Germania is Prussia and Germany’s grandfather, but there are no mentions of fathers or mothers for the Italy or German siblings.

America and Canada seem to have been formed by European colonization in modern-day America and Canada, and America and Canada inherited some physical traits of all the European countries around them at the time, but not in a literal biological sense. French influence is why America and Canada don’t have the Iggy-brows and probably why Canada was given longer, wavier hair than America (to reflect stronger French influence). America’s face strongly resembles Finland’s, and Finland points this out in a strip with young America.

I’ve gotten an ask regarding Vinland as a possible bio ancestor for the NA bros, but I don’t know if Vinlanders had enough of a national identity to merit a Hetalia personification. I do know that a generalized “Native America” OC being portrayed as America and Canada’s mother is wildly inaccurate and offensive. Native Americans come from a variety of different nations with different cultures and languages, and the pre-European contact relations between different Native American nations were just as complex as the relationships between different European nations. Individual Native American nations could theoretically be personified in Hetalia (like a Cherokee or a Navajo OC), but I don’t think they would be biologically related to America or Canada. Since America and Canada were literally formed by European colonization, it would probably be offensive to depict a Native American character as their parent. This is not to say that Alfred and Matthew, as characters, would not care about their Native American people or possibly have some positive interactions with personified OCs of individual nations, however. (For example, I could see America and a Navajo OC working together to develop codes for secret messages during World War II.)

America’s adoptive father was England, and Canada’s adoptive fathers were France and England, who both had a role in raising him at different times. They had parents, but not biological ones.

The blonde child glared at the tree line, something was there and he was happy with it staring at his brother and himself. He pulled his younger brother closer by his dress and the boy toddled over and held onto the blonde. The former Viking child glared and slowly made his move to stand up keeping his younger brother close.

I see America and Canada went with the cross whereas the Vinlands decided to go be a disgrace with Greenland.

[ask-the-arctic]

Do you talk to any of the nations much?

Here are some people I've talked with lately!

(Nyo Spain belongs to @ask-the-aph-reinassance ).

[cryptophasia-nabros]

Not the first time I've seen the Nordics as their parents in Cardverse, or in general.

Sweden, circa 1870: how did you find America?

Norway: turned left at Greenland.

[simple-persica]

Hey look, she's not alone anymore! Now we have an official design for Vinland and Greenland! These are "snapshots" of them, if you will, from around 1000-1100 AD, which is why Greenland is dressed like that.

Edit: I forgot to mention! These are rough sketches, I’m going to go back and refined them/clean them up. Also there’ll be a third addition to the party in the final post👀

Some info about them under the cut

Vinland

She's around 10 years old, very tall for her age (roughly 144 cm)

She wears a large cloak to cover her whole body, she's just more comfortable that way

There are design reasons for it: The large cloak and crazy hair are supposed to help sell the idea that we can never really see the full picture of "Vinland" as a settlement. Underneath the cloak is a very ornate outfit, even by the standards of the time, that shows the rich history the settlement most likely had but we will never see

Her brooch has two bits of jasper on it, as jasper was found in the walls of the church found in the area where Vinland was most likely located

She has braids EVERYWHERE in her hair. But it's so thick, that you'd only see a couple at a time

Personality-wise, she's very shy and always has this worried look about her

Whenever she's missing her family, the Scandinavian trio, and also Iceland ig, there is always a convenient gust of wind to add to her wistful look. Greenland is confused and kinda jealous about this

Greenland

He's around 14 here, clocking in at about 157 cm in height

The hair curl represents the fjords all over the east coast and is also a reference to the migration of people from Canada

His parka has strips of wool adhered to it that have been dyed blue. This represents how the island of Greenland was shared with the Norsemen by the native Inuit people. It's also a call to how Vikings would adopt aspects of local cultures into their own culture

Greenland is a very intense guy and takes everything you say seriously. Almost to a fault

One time, he parted his hair down the middle because he noticed how common it was amongst the men. When an older woman noticed and complimented him on it, basically calling him a "Handsom little guy." he never changed his hairstyle

He wants to grow his hair out longer and is kinda jealous that Vinland has such long and flowy hair (He gets there once he's older, don't worry)

It's hard to see due to his thick clothing, but he was actually very thin here. At the time, Scandinavian settlers were having difficulty with their crops and the land was slowly becoming harder and harder to cultivate due to their interference

Both of them

The two of them get along fine, but they never had much time to hang out before Vinland disappeared

Greenland would occasionally go over to her place to visit and spend some time on the mainland (in this case, North America)

There's not much to say. They didn't have enough time

[ask-the-aph-nordics]

Yes

[ask-hetalia-jones-family]

Do the other nations know the states exist? If so, how did they find out about the states?

“In short,” Alfred started.

“Only Gilbert knows anyone beside Alfred exists and a personification in the US” Jeffery finished.

“BUT,” Jonathan declared, “a few are on the dead republics’ case! It’s pretty sad how none of them have realized the grave yard still leek around expesially since they are right in their face most the time when they are in the US”

[thatsamericano]

Is vinland like America and canada parent?

If Vinland counts as a nation for Hetalia purposes, then maybe. A lot of Hetalia nations don’t necessarily have parents. For example, the Italy brothers refer to Ancient Rome as their grandfather, and they don’t indicate that they had a mother or father. Other nations have no parental figure or grandparent for all.

America and Canada both appear to be very young in the strips where England and France find them. England and France aren’t their biological parents, but England is probably the closest thing America has to a parent, and England and France were both parental figures to Canada.

[linkinaboxx]

Vinland kept his focus on Canada but he made sure to keep an eye out for those around them. All the while Canada floated around within the bounds of his brother’s magic. But Vinland stayed on edge however he didn’t let Canada know a thing about the state of his conscious.
