Diana Kirkland

Among the four sisters, this one has the demeanor of a true lady. (Abigail is too reserved, Charity is too dusty, and Alice is too crazy)

She doesn't often stay at home, but often wanders in the forest.

Her nickname is Diana the Dragon's Bride. The spirits rumored that she was betrothed to a dragon.

I tag all my art with #FrUK, because in the default setting of all the worlds in my fanart, France and England is always a pair.

Pfft

Looking at history and Hetalia, (hws) Norway has probably had s-x with all UK siblings except Sealand (obviously) at least once, and you're all just too coward to admit it. x'D

Could anyone deny that Bradley James in his role of king Arthur looks the closest to a real life version of aph England we could possibly get? I mean, look at him. He's literally Arthur.

Spring 1775

This is from a scene in a fiction piece I’m writing called “To Prevent Consequence.” Anyways this scene occurs in 1775, basically Jennie/ New York State is being more or less threatened by Arthur due to the rebellious activities her relatives like Elise/ New Jersey and Will/ Albany, NY, and neighbors like Henry/ Massachusetts and his cousin, Alfred.

Now at this point in time Jennie DID NOT want to partake in what was becoming the revolution (they were not quite here yet). She was still perceived as too Dutch (and Sephardi) by her peers as she used to be a Dutch colony so she didn’t really receive all that much respect from them other than her business expertise. Jennie didn’t want to rock the boat too much and risk her businesses, and she saw these rebellious activities especially from Henry & Alfred as just another inter-English conflict.

The 13 colonies were becoming difficult to govern following the French & Indian War (North American theatre of the Seven Years War) because this was the first time Arthur would’ve actually had a chance to properly govern them hence why the operated under salutary neglect. It’s not that he didn’t care to govern them, but other than his first colony Rich/Virginia, he never got a chance to spend much time with any of them because he was either in his own civil war or he was in non-stop European wars (which also dragged his 13 colonies in as well). He also began to show up because Rich had forced his hand into the French & Indian war and he realized it was time to like get these colonies under control. Initially, he tried to be like maybe a stern uncle, or teacher when he first got a chance to properly meet all of them. However he had let them all essentially do their own thing for so long that they all had separate cultures and ideas*, and he knew he had to start ruling them with heavier hand hence why he started taxing them more, and made some attempts at state religion. Simply put, the colonies were not fond of this, especially the New Englanders like Henry/Massachusetts & Alfred who saw this as another attempt to suppress their “rights to be new Englanders.”

ANYWAYS her younger sister, Elise & cousin, Will on the other hand saw the brewing conflict as a chance to assert their Dutch-ness. A lot of American ideas about plurality of religion and ethnicity can be traced back to the plurality seen in the New Netherland colony (which was mostly New York & New Jersey- Pennsylvania also had these ideas but that’s cause of the Quakers lol). Meanwhile, her long-time neighbor, and frenemy Henry/Massachusetts & Alfred were starting shit with Arthur mostly cause they just didn’t want to be ruled so heavily by him. Henry & Jennie have a complicated relationship, but one thing you can count on is that Jennie annoys / enrages the ever the fuck out of Henry for just being there; and she gleefully antagonizes him enough that sometimes he just stops. Arthur generally likes Jennie, but he still wasn’t the biggest fan that she was still rather Dutch despite being a colony of his for a little over 100 years at this point.

Arthur was hoping by threatening Jennie with like y’know harming her relatives that Jennie could placate both her relatives and Henry and Alfred somehow. And this worked for a time at making Jennie even more hesitant to partake in the Revolution. Jennie does also have a good poker face normally, but like lol her boss is threatening her in this scene so.

I’ll save this for another post, but Jennie does of course eventually participate and she goes hard for these assholes. She starts off as an “outsider” amongst these English colonies and quickly becomes a vital player and honestly a trusted confidant of Alfred’s.

Little tidbits

- Alfred IS NOT Arthur’s son in this AU. Actually they don’t develop a meaningful relationship until much later on. I do see their relationship that of like an uncle/teacher nephew/student. But this post isn’t about him lol. I will say that, I see his early character growth being really developed by his interactions with states and cities and indigenous nations rather than with European nations

- I heavily rely folkways a lot to inform my Nor’Easter verse lore because I really enjoy US history, but I personally don’t like:

1) shoving everything into one character (Alfred) hence why I make use of states and cities (they’re not all related to him nor are they all necessarily friends with him).

2) I like US history, and I really love the social and regional discourses within it. So having states and cities represent perhaps “outsider” groups (ex not WASPs) allows me to do that whilst also explaining the history of that state / city in relation to US history.

- *SO these colonies DID DEVELOP DIFFERENTLY. I’m using the regions put forth by Albion’s Seed to inform the more “English” areas of the nation- so basically the “root” culture of these regions are

17th century East England = New England

17th century English/Scottish borderlands = Appalachia

17th century southwestern English gentry = tidewater south

Quakers are deadass their own thing + 17th Century English Midlands

Everything is regional in my understanding of the world. Modern English national culture was being created and also being enforced in the colonies, and these colonies had developed from different regional English cultures and wanted to continue their traditions within those so to a certain extent the American Revolution was sort of an English civil war and these colonies wanted to assert their right to be English (or whatever else) in their own way.

I look at other cultures, but this is all a case by case thing, my main focus is New York, which is uniquely Dutch.

also the headcanon of Arthur being such a doting, enabling father for Alfred is fantastic in a historical sense because the British were objectively terrible at getting much of a profit from the American colonies or governing them directly. the thirteen colonies were not only unprofitable, they were a complete and total money sink for the English crown. not because they couldn't be profitable, mind you, but because the English were just operating on an incompatible economic theory.

like, under early mercantilism, the point of a colony is to provide the mother country with resources and export markets. the thirteen colonies are shit at this - their main resources are lumber, fur, and cotton, all of which are resources present in other British colonies (by the time of independence anyway). and the colonists themselves are incredibly uppity. they're too distant to effectively govern and their greatest passion in life is making money, and so if left to their own devices they'll do anti-mercantilist things like trade with other countries and occasionally accidentally start a war.

now what the British would eventually figure out with Canada and Australia is that the thirteen colonies could have been incredibly profitable under different economic rules. the greatest American passions in life are making money and being left the fuck alone, and the thirteen colonies had not only a substantial population- which in itself is very valuable- but they had a substantial literate population. that's so fucking useful. just watch that development and industrialization go, babey! I mean, just look at the US immediately after independence- they wasted no time becoming a relatively prosperous country and eventually became an enormously wealthy country. you could've had that, Britain! you could've had a huge population with the same majority religious and linguistic customs (the importance of which cannot be underestimated. compare: India and Egypt under British rule) who were actually quite loyalist and gungho about the whole empire thing, had little to no political power over either the crown or parliament, loved generating profit, and even governed themselves shockingly well! that's just so massively useful to an empire! a population that has all the benefits of your domestic population (ie same culture, religion, cultural identity, general level of development, etc) and few of the disadvantages (eg the expectation of a functioning government and willingness to start beheading kings if this expectation is not met) and is economically and politically self-sustaining? that's a fucking goldmine for any state. but noooooo. just had to function under mercantilism.

Point being: Arthur being an enabling father and spoiling Alfred rotten but being generally incompetent at like, actually parenting, is great because the English were historically terrible at accomplishing anything with the thirteen colonies except wasting a lot of money.

what hetalia characters would be like if i served them in a pub

(based on my experience in a pub in Waterloo right near the station)

england is that asshole regular who is always in at the same time, has way too many opinions, is pretty decent to the older staff but ruthlessly grills the new ones and gets scathing if they don't know his regular order or they don't use the right glass. he lives nearby. he goes to the pub and has like 5 or 6 pints there then on his way home he goes by the 24/7 offie and picks up a 4 pack of Stella (or two if it's been a really hard week) and then goes home and drinks them on his own watching old british tv. usually drinks the exact same thing for the first few rounds (pint of house bitter, has to be in a glass with a handle) and then tries some of the guest beers. likes a pale ale or a porter, nothing too far on either side of that.

ivan as a customer, i'd see him once or twice a month because he usually has people to dinner at his and has to travel a lot for work even though he hates travelling, so whenever i see him he's like. exhausted and either very irritated and liable to start an argument, or very sociable and will buy drinks for the bar staff. there's been a night where we think we'll have to call the police because he refuses to leave at closing time and starts smashing glasses but the manager kind of talks him round and takes him outside for a cigarette, and the next few nights everyone's steeling for the worst thinking he'll come back and we'll end up having to bar him (which like, no one wants to do because he's generally a nice guy and he drops a lot of cash when he visits) and then he finally turns up like 3 weeks later with gifts for the bar staff and full of apologies for how he acted last time and he's super repentant for the next few months (until he starts getting comfy and starting arguments again).

france - i would love him as a customer tbh. he would be lovely and charming, he would give tips even though he doesnt have to. he'll buy red wine by the bottle, even if he doesn't drink the whole thing, he'll take the rest home with him. he comes to the pub because it's near his (beautiful very expensive victorian terrace) house but he likes to also pretend its beneath him. mainly because arthur is the other local regular and he loves to piss him off. the caveat to him being super generous is he is also very exacting, so everything has to be perfect. he will complain if the glass has a smudge on it. he can see smudges that are not visible to the normal human eye. he also turns up with different women all the time and the staff say nothing.

Big Brother

I know most people hc Scotland as the oldest of the UK-siblings, and I’m in the minority with considering Wales as the oldest, but just give me a moment of your time and consider how hilarious it’d be:

Wales as the oldest, England as the youngest (except for Sealand, if you consider him brother instead of Eng’s son). All of the rest siblings with the “I’m telling mum!” energy, except to Wales. No one wants to be the one who ACTUALLY piss him off. 😂

“Wales, Scotland hit me!” “You started it!” “And I’m ENDING it!”

Basically, Wales as the tired mum-sibling everyone else tattles to. 😂 xD
