My entire high school French class has started calling Quebecois people Quebeckers

“That sounds like someone my family would do. Please, PLEASE don’t give them ideas—“

“HA. Quebeckers! You’re so screwed- just wait until Matthew hears about this one, you won’t live it down!”

“No- the chanting. I can hear it already—“

[thank you @ask-the-pearloftheorient for the question <3 i'll give you a short version here and reblog this with a longer version <3

It all started during the French revolution, when France had became pretty isolated from other European countries, Algeria, back then the Regency of Algiers (Naval kingdom of Algiers) had helped him with grains and other goods, through the Bacri-Busnach association,

France owed Algeria 7 Million Frs Or (golden Franc, = 2 billion Frs in 1955) and for 30 years he slacked off from paying them, they amounted to 24 Million latter but Algeria allowed let them be turned back to 7M , after a quick return of a monarchy in France, the king Louis XVIII wanted to solve the problem and sent some money to Algiers (that never reached it bcz the Consul Duval took the money for himself) another sum was versed but was devided between french officials and the association mentioned above. The Algerians were growing frustrated, so the Dey asked the consul in 1827 (who was desperate for a rupture between the two countries to hide his thieft) about the matter, Duval was disrespectful and angered the Dey, who ushered with his fan for the consul to leave (may or may not have hit him in the face while doing so.)

France considered this a great insult, he asked Algeria for disproportionate compensations that touched to Algeria's sovereignty, Algeria obviousely refused, he then prepared to attack him. Now Algiers had a famous naval army (he was a Barbary corsair) but his Armada had been destroyed during the battle of Navarino and thus it didn't take long to invade him and make the Dey surrounder.

Now it's important to explain why the Fan accident (explained above) was only a mere exuse for the invasion and consequent brutal colonization of Algeria. First of all, Algiers had a reputation, this was not the first Consul he insulted and France had done nothing about it before (he throw one out from a canon toward nearby french ships). Then France didn't mainly use this exuse for the invasion, another reason he gave was to bring civilization toward the...less civilized indigenous, to abolish slavery, to deliver Algerians from the mean Ottoman rule etc (none of this actually happened) The real reasons France invaded Algeria was to hide the corruption of the governement and burry the debts affair, give credibility for the monarchy by making a new win in a foreign land (inspired from other European powers "accomplishements") and because Algeria was wealthy (there's proof that the idea of occupying Algeria started from Napoleaon.) and because of his strategic location as the gate to Africa. (what happened up from there is really not pretty though)

don't hesitate to ask me anything ]

Sethre: Hello~ Pleases to meet you all

> Who are the Etruscans?

Sethre: Well.... We are an ancient italic people in Northern-Central Italy (-with some territories in southern Italy)

Oh and don't worry it won't be just me! Here is some of my siblings

(in order: Tarchna/Tarquinia (She/Her), Velathri/Volterra (They/Them) Caere (She/He) 🌻)

We are called in many ways: Thyrrenoi by Greeks, Etrusci or Tusci by Romans

But in our language it would be "Rasenna or Rasna" ("our people)

> Why are you here? How are you here?

Sethre: When I was traveling your world, I came accross this device I heard it's called "phone"? (it even had a picture of Ruma!)

As I was trying to understand it's function I also came accross this letter thingy that allows people to ask and answer queries

//sorry for the repetition I did not notice also yeah that is my actual phone that I actually lost irl xD

Sethre: So I thought...

Sethre: The afterlife has been quite monotonous so why not try something new?

i am obsessed with the idea of konrad, gilbert, and fritz getting up to all sorts of debauchery and trouble at dresden after frederick william hit the hay

equally obsessed with the idea that gilbert and konrad both stole their dresses from ilse

I can only imagine the internal screaming from Ludwig rn....

Ludwig: "This wasn't exactly the reunion I had in mind... But I can't deny it's nice to see you again."

Oskar: "I'm sorry for causing you such an inconvience, but I didn't know who else to turn to. Then again, our meeting here was completely coincidental."

Ludwig: "Somehow I have my doubts about that.... Anyway, let's get you a change of clothes. Something that attracts less attention. And doesn't stink."

Oskar: ".... Is it that bad?"

Ludwig: "Yes."

They certainly have a lot to catch up on.

[ask-heta-dzayer]

And how do you feel about your former occupants? I see you're still pissed at France lol

Chibi Dzayer: " I'm an amazigh (free man) Hear me roar!"

[Short answer: He hates and fights anyone who comes in 1 m raduis from his land, longer answer:]

[1st Panel, After killing Juba the first, Numidia (Ancient Algeria) fell under the Roman empire and his son Juba the second (who's next to Algeria) was imprisoned and became under the Roman guardianship, he was later put in the head of Mauretania Caesariensis (Western Algeria) and later Tangitana too (Eastern Morocco), Algeria as a whole became known as Caesarea is some books. I inspire Algeria from that era a lot from Juba, someone who hated the Romans because they killed his father and wanted to give him another identity, but he was too weak to do anything, Juba 2 even stopped a local insurrection and was thus considered a traitor (which is what i'm illustrating) but at times he and Algeria relate to each other.

2nd & 3rd Panels The vandals and Byzantines, i'm sorry i didn't have ref to draw the two so it's a bit half-assed. After the Roman empire lost its influence on some of its north African provinces other emerging empires started to take over, these two were pretty violent and repressive, although the Byzantines weren't as bad as they were remored to be, the locals had fought them all the same, like they regularly tried with the Romans, and suceeded to push them away. This is just natural to not want to be under someone control]

[4th Panel; mister Ummayah is younger Syria in here, he's speaking too fast though because resistence didn't stop after Dihya (Amazigh queen, head on Algeria's hands, better known as Al Kahina) was defeated, Amazigh went in regular uprisings against the Ummayah, until they were separated from him (In Algeria's case, there's the Banu Ifran (Ifranid dynasty) and Maghrawa confederation in the west then the Rustumid in the east). But Ummayah was more accepted than the Abbasid in general which came later.

5th Panel is especially related the poor Ziyyanid dynasty (btw all dynasties and tribes have their own representation, but to simplify i only drew Dzayer) who was attacked from everywhere by Spain, Portugal, Tunisia, Morocco etc, he fought fiercly but ended up occupied by Spain until he had to call the Ottomans for help...

6th Panel, the Ottomans came for help, but also for something more; but The regencey of Algiers was also a very troublesome youngster ugh.

Now for France:]

[The two panels are during the occupation, i tried to make their clothes militarish but don't quote me on these, i have a long post about these two relations lurking somewhere hmm; in sum , Dzayer does show more disdain toward his ex-colonizer simply because his wounds are pretty recent and not healed yet and France does nothing to help, if not emplifiying the impact and triggering the Algerian in many ways.]

[Old illustration, I don't think any of those occupations can be summarized in one post or the man's feelings towards them (he talks with these people and most of the past is kept in memory or long forgotten, with exceptions) especially not the last, but i tried to make it brief.

In conclusion; because of his geographical position, North Africa, middle of the Maghreb, Dzayer had people coming from everywhere claiming his land, which he refused to give, so he had been beat up and around a lot trying to keep it. The guy just wanted to be left alone lol. Today though, it's more peaceful times, and because or thanks to his terrible Amnesia, he doesn't mind that past much, except the most recent direct one. ]

Do you ever wonder if Texas went to the world meetings a long time ago when he was a country? I wonder what Spain currently thinks of him now.

Tex prolly doesn’t bat an eye about Spain, nor cares. But I feel like Spain might be like “holy shit your alive?!” XD

Lmaoo I definitely think Spain would react like that too, and that would be some other nations reactions to the states as well XD

I don’t really know about the world meetings since I don’t really know when I’d have world meetings start being a regular thing in my AU. Probably as the world actually began to come together and communicate, so maybe the early 20th century

I also think Texas would have just went off on his own and not particularly cared for other nations when he was one XD with a Sealand-type attitude of “I’m my own person damnit!” only to reluctantly join the US

What is the stupidest thing you've ever seen Rome do

// Etru-Ro My unbeloathed,,,,,,also mucho texto I am sorry, they are not really intended to be brothers here (that's the popular hc) but Idm that interpretation

Sethre: i have a few stories let's see, maybe when he screamed at a girl in front of everyone to ask her out (we were young though)

Or when he forgot to stop drinking and ended up blurting personal things... But he was drunk, idk if that's his fault

Hm, maybe when he got beaten for being with a married woman by her husband, who also had made love to him days before

Sethre: oh and when he challenged himself on how long he could hold his breath, he almost drowned and then tried to bring me down with him

He has always been impulsive and reckless, I couldn't choose one single stupidest thing he is done (but it's always fun to humiliate him)

// notes v

> okayyy so they do not have a huge age gap like I see usually, because I not only usually make Rome a bit older than the founding date, I also think that with the founding date the age gap should be lower PERSONALLY bcs it kinds of icks me to make it huge and not make it as huge with other civilizations like Greece or Egypt that are a lot older than both of them?? It screws my time-line a bit

> i do need to read more about Rome's founding so if you have anything good to read tell me!!!

> i also have this hc that they spend their childhood like normal and start feeling the effects of immortality as teens so in the first panels they are both teens

> in order, first panel should be during archaic/monarchic Rome, second panel somewhere around late monarchy/early republic and third late republic/early empire, last panel should also be early republic

OP How has Umer been as of recent? We send our sincerest regards of concerns to you both.

He has become a firm believer of sleeping your problems off. "Everything's fine", he says as he laughs a little too hard. Domestic Pakistani politics have been a joke recently =_= and it doesn't help that climate change has begun to rear its ugly head in Pakistan :( , This last year has been particularly tough and unkind to Pakistanis. Inflation in particular, has me seeing tears :') I've gotten plenty of asks in the last few months asking if Umer and Mun were okay and I'm fine! Thank you so much for asking! To all the people who dropped by to check up on how i was doing, i appreciate your concerns a lot and you've got no idea how touched i was while reading those. <3

[FUNFACT]: "Khes" is the name of the thin cotton blanket that's wrapped around Umer. It's a piece of textile that derives its origin from Rural Punjab :D
