The only Sealand ships that are not terrible are the ones with other micronations that are around his physical age. Most of the ships on this list I don't get either, but I have read some good prucan fanfics. I actually like their dynamic as long as its still in character and Canada isn't written as a doormat.

[@breadcells640]

Okay FINALLY someone made the point of how annoying it is that people ship things JUST for them to be gay,,,,

[@ratontheinternet5611]

breadcells those people are ew :( I ship lots of gay ships, but I never do because they’re gay. I once saw this comment on a Twitter thread that said “I don’t care about the ship, just as long as it’s gay!!1!1!” And it’s just like, ugh,,, stop-

[@breadcells640]

cass- is-trash I made a point about this issue on twitter and got called a gatekeeper and homophobe. You have this ‘it’s gay that’s all that matters’ view at like 12-14 then you grow the fuck up at 15 or so and look back and the cycle repeats as you try to explain to kids that this view isn’t healthy and often leads to messed up things being romanticised and then get called an asshole.

[@ratontheinternet5611]

breadcells oof, harsh. I made a rant, but I never posted it ‘cause I have that fear. Some people are really that weird to call you homophobic because they’re the ones who’s fetishizing gay people. I’m actually in the age range that you mentioned, but I still know how ships work :/

[@breadcells640]

cass- is-trash I didn’t mean like, all kids. Sorry. I’m just so used to kids in that range literally excusing and fetishising r*pe, p*dophilia, peer relationships and abuse because it’s “gay and cute and precious pure love uwu” and like to be fair some people in my older age range actually excuse and encourage it. I’m just sick of watching everyone go through this cycle of damaged morals that they’re picking up in fandoms.

[@ratontheinternet5611]

breadcells you don’t need to apologize, it’s okay! But seriously, these yaoi fangirls are not okay. Especially the gacha community. I don’t watch them, but I usually watch cringe comps (for fun). There are so many stories that consist of those topics, and they’re made by like, 10 year olds. And that’s for more kids their age (and younger) to watch! That’s probably why they’re turning out to act like that in terms of ships. :(

[@trashrat279]

The reason why Russia is so high on the seme/uke scale is because he's tall. I'm not joking, people determine who tops based on height. That's why you might see people over exaggerate the height of characters. People will usually see someone who is tall as the "protector" in a relationship, and someone who is small would be see as "innocent,""weak,"and "slow." People don't care about personality, they prefer the heteronormative aesthetic. And as someone who actually ships something where the characters never interact in canon, the reasons can be anywhere from how they interact in a theoretical relationship to just aesthetic. Sometimes it could even be a crackship becoming a lot more than such. I hope this information was helpful.

[@gokbay3057]

Physicality is definitely a part of it

[@wannabehistorian371]

There’s probably also the fact that Russia as a country just invokes that kind of image.

[@HandsumeAJ]

No it's because of his long... strong...magical... pipe of pleasure...

[@arugulaplant9898]

I do believe height as something to do with shit like this. But I for example, think England is a top, even though he’s canonically shorter than most other countries. I also think America is a bottom(power bottom because he still would want some control) even though he’s on the taller side. In my opinion, I think Russia is usually a top, but has potential to be a bottom. I think of Russia as a sweet, gentle top tho. Idk why I think this, I just get a feeling about characters, and I know it’s not about height because it’s all over the place.

[@trashrat279]

To add on- People will sometimes change character heights to what they prefer, but it's not everyone. There are still people who prefer to write it differently, but a lot of people (especially americans, but not all, of course) like to rely on the height stereotype because they like it. Some people are uncomfortable with Russia being uke because it is unusual to them. Some people associate tall people as protectors, as they might have had that coded into their brain by their culture, society norms, and media. They might be trained to look down upon people assigned to be strong leaders wanting to be the innocent. Sorry for getting into that mess, but it's still relevant to finding out why people ship the way they do. That doesn't mean that someone simply liking a relationship where the taller is seme is doing it because their society encouraged it. Sometimes the one who tops simply happens to be tall. I personally don't like the whole seme/uke scale, and I don't like assigning roles to the characters, but it's unavoidable in most fiction. Again, I hope that was helpful, and not too repetitive.

[@kimikolee7313]

America and France are shipped because in real life they have good history. France was America’s first ally and is also his oldest ally. Yes there has been small squabbles, but overall the two nations have good blood between them (pun not intended) For instance, when Paris was attacked, America lit up some of their most marvelous monuments in the French flag (including the White House). We also published a newspaper that was titled “We Are All French” much like France published a newspaper after 9/11 that said “We Are All American” Personally, I see France as a parental figure to America. But the ship is low key adorable.

Fun fact, PruCan emerged because of Prussias blog, where he met Canada and they had pancakes together. Yep. That's all.

[@coralia.i]

I mean it's apretty big ass deal that he gave Canada of all people and "Awesomeness Award"

[@feonaarabellaparaiso1786]

PruCan came to be because of Prussia’s blog. Canada and Prussia interacted there, and Prussia said something about appreciating / liking maple syrup. Even though they don’t really interact in the comics, according to the blog, they apparently do message each other online. I don’t really read their fics, but I am pretty sure that was the catalyst of that ship.

[@alphaskibidifortnite]

so uh the reasoning behind prucan is that there is no reasoning its just cute and i have no idea where it cane from and why its popular is because they're well loved in the fandom i think

[@dibzybd9741]

For me, USUK was literally my introduction to Hetalia. I saw a video that said “USUK moments” around early 2018 and couldn’t exactly tell what the title meant. While still figuring out what Hetalia was about, I didn’t know that America was England’s adopted brother until much later, so I got kinda conflicted about the ship when I found out they were siblings/former siblings (I’m not sure what they are) because by then I had seen a bunch of fan stories of the ship. (Sometimes i check fanworks before checking the main source as a way to see what most of the fandom enjoys about a series.) Now I don’t really see the pair getting into a romantic relationship anymore and prefer stories of them having a more familial relationship as I find it interesting to see other people’s ideas about how their relationship developed after past conflict.

[@sabita9406]

“Belarus and Liechtenstein personalities are polar opposites” I thought that was the fun part about shipping? Honestly, my English is not good enough to explain myself correctly, but crashing personalities is what makes it interesting for me, shipping equals is not always boring, I definitely prefer it when the two are colliding tho, it gives you a lot more to play with. Learning to be softer for Belarus, learning to be more assertive for Liechtenstein, wanting to work and undertand eachother, a slowburn.

Probably because everyone just focuses on GerIta. But yeah, even though I don't really ship PruIta, I find it sad that it gets ignored so often. (Prussia wanted a dang date with Italy and even mentions in one of his songs that he loves him) Random: Personally I ship Prumano more because they not only had interaction but Hima even stated once that Prussia has the same feelings for Romano as he has for Italy. (and I think Prussia needs someone who isn't always nice and sweet but also gives him kind of a challenge without being cruel)

The UsUk thing for me made me conflicted at first because I didn't fully understand if they were blood related or not which when I first got into the fandom confused the heck out of me, after actually looking up a crap tone of stuff on wether it was actually incest(because I ship everything unless it's incest or like pedophile or anything illegal) or not which once I got a solid but not super solid answer on it I just went and was like, "as long as I don't see the toxic Fanart or read a fanfic where they make them actually related im good" and left it as is. Though I do like frUK more lol. That's just me though.

I mean I kinda like FrUk because despite some of their differences they actually are quite similar in character. They both try to be ‘gentlemen’ (both usually fail miserably but that just makes it better), England once tried to imitate France, they nearly got married, they both sort of hate America (though in different ways and for different reasons) and both have quite a short temper. The thing with Russia’s ‘love hate ships’ is that Russia is a dangerous nation that could literally take over the entire world in a heartbeat, whereas with France and England they never really get ‘seriously violent’. That’s just my opinion though.

[@Justamixofdepressionandcoffee]

@@classicfudge2939 I think there personifies are polar oppersate England is much more modest mature and gentlemanly when he is sober if course. They where never married because there is no canon romantic relationships in hetalia other then chibitaliaxhre, they fight all the time I gotta say a vast majority of the time they are together and constant physocal fighting causes a toxic relationship,

[@karenakemi7555]

I would never have shiped Romano and Germany, but when I was much younger, I read a germano fic where Romano was basically a big tsundere for cute and caring Germany, and my 13 year old heart freaking exploded, and I loved it and treasured this ship in a special warm place in my soul. Now, I don't think germano would work without really tweaking the characters, like, Romano REALLY hates the potato bastard, it would take more than love to fix this shit. So it bothers me that they are shiped, but for some reason I still like it????? a lot????? This ship is really high in my list and idk why??? Guess you can't run away from your old ships, they will haunt you, and you can't escape '-' (sorry for any mistakes in my english)

[@no.850]

[@belindat.9649]

I am not even into shipping but for the Prucan one, There was this interaction between the two in ore-sama's blog (Is that what it's called?) where Canada gave Prussia canadian maple syrup and he was so impressed that he said he wanted to give Canada an Ore-sama's award. And that's probably the only time they've talked lol it's kinda adorable ngl

[@nexen_stars]

A note on PruCan that tries to stay unbiased: First, we know they have interacted at some point. In one of his blog posts, Prussia mentions someone he doesn't recognise coming to his door and offering him maple syrup. It was April Fool's day though, and he was suspicious, but after being assured it was free, he did take it. Is that an incredibly far leap from shipping? You bet. But Prussia also is shown to enjoy pancakes. Not German pancakes, though, new world pancakes. This could be the same oversight as the Italy brother's being drawn with New York style pizza, but it is a main reason for the ship. And if you think about the characters, their personalities actually could work well together. Prussia wants attention. He's after the spotlight. He wants someone to talk to him. He's lonely, and afraid he'll be forgotten. When he is alone, he claims that being alone is awesome, even though he clearly doesn't like it. He's just trying to boost his ego, quite possibly because he thinks it's the only thing keeping him alive. Canada, on the other hand, while still pushed to the back burner, is mostly content to stay there. He does want people to talk to him and get to know him, and he does want more friends, but he doesn't tend to put much effort into that goal, as he probably believes it's doomed to failure. So what we have are two people who don't want to be forgotten, but have very different ways of acting due to that. One wants someone to listen to them, and the other wants someone to talk to them. If these characters actually manage to meet and become acquainted, I feel like they would become friends at least. One way would be through France, as he interacts with both rather frequently in modern day. Finally, I will explain why I, personally, ship PruCan. I almost immediately identified with both Lithuania and Canada in the show. Canada specifically because my parent's on-again off-again relationship affected my childhood in many ways, and much stronger than it did my siblings'. I don't tend to talk much outside of my house, have very few friends, and tend to take a passive role in everything. For a long time, I assumed my opinions didn't matter because no one ever listened to them or cared. When I was thirteen, I decided to play an MMO. It was an act of rebellion against my parents, because I wasn't supposed to do anything online that would let me come in contact with other people. But also, I was lonely. I wanted some sort of interaction. There, I met a player who took on a big brother type roll towards me, giving me better equipment and teaching me how to play. He had a friend/rival that... I was honestly scared of at first. He was loud, aggressive, and seemed to pay a little too much attention to me. Later, I learned that he just thought I was cute, and didn't know how to express that, so he picked on me. I also learned that he acted that way because he was afraid of people ignoring him, for reasons I won't disclose. It's not my story. I'm not sure how it happened, but after about a month things switched gears completely. He asked if we could start over as friends, and I agreed. Later, he asked if I would be entirely opposed to dating him. I was not. It's been four years since then. We have still never met. But we're still happy, and counting days. So, the main reason I ship PruCan is simply because it's a happy ending to the story I'm living. Sure, there are numerous differences, but two polar opposites, thousands of miles apart, who've never really met....... The forgotten child and the gaming wanna-be-badguy who's actually sweet..... It's just something special to me on a personal level. And that is why I ship PruCan.

I heavily agree with your USUK opinions. (Only I didn’t go on the internet during the shipping wars) America and Britain have a strong relationship, no denying that, but it’s a familial bond (very much so in America’s mind!). ((I think most of the people shipping this are just young and horny, America is young and Britain kinda acts socially immature so they connect with that in their own minds. They also won’t consider the fact that there are dynamic relationships that exist that don’t involve romance)) The angst is real but that’s once again extremely present in family dynamics. . I want to see more cannon stuff talking about colonization and how that works relationship wise to the countries.

[@Alexandra-xk3gu]

All of the ships included are ones I either don’t ship or feel uncomfortable with, but this still rubs me up the wrong way. The whole idea of “they have no canon interaction/there’s no historical basis” being a reason that it’s a bad ship makes no sense to me; if people want to ship something with no canon significance, why claim it’s wrong? It just seems like a way of making yourself feel like “the superior shipper”, and it leaves a bad taste in my mouth. I’m not calling her out, but I think this way of viewing people’s ships does nothing good and tends to make people feel invalid for no good reason.

[@Mica_T]

There's always a hierarchy for things, characters, ships... there's a reason why tier lists exist. But it is important to know that it's always subjective and a rationale based on canon doesnt always exist, like why the nordics are so beloved despite having so little screentime. If you somehow feel inferior/superior because you ship something, I think you need to ask yourself why you feel that way. Because most people in this fandom dont actually care what you ship and dont ship shame since ship wars had been unfortunate part of this fandom's history. Edit: after reading your other comment, yes. Hetafacts has a tendency to carry a condescending(?) tone in her videos. Probably should feedback. I try to ignore it and assume her intentions aren't negative.

@@aleabeckermann2100 America doesn't have a general federal rule like England does about incest. The states all have their own rules which are for the most part strikingly similar to England's rules. Here is the thing about incest. Your legalese doesn't matter. incest is not limited to blood. This is why I brought up the westermark effect. The westermark effect is a psychological phenomena which causes people who grew up together in a close relationship to not be attracted to each other and to further be repulsed by it. This happens with your blood relatives and it happens with your adoptive relatives. Using laws about blood to justify incest doesn't make it less incest. It just makes you look like a creep.

[@aleabeckermann2100]

Cursed Hetalia Edits ?? That’s... not how it works? Incest is a term created by human and the definition obviously can vary from country to country.

Me, a Polish person: *terrified like my greatest fears were coming true, wants to protect Feliks all of a sudden* Ps: I love the characters, and I know that countries are not their bosses, but it's still quite uncomfortable for me to imagine them together. Somehow RusPrus is more understable, since Prussia also stands for East Germany and their mutual history is longer, but it's problematic in its own way. Also, I don't see them (Germany and Russia) as even able to stand each other in the long run, their personalities are too different. I somehow can't see any Germanic nation being romantically involved with Russia, just all of them seem too odd together and not like they could relate to one another for the most part. That's just my take on it, in any case.

[@kamemochi2736]

I ship France and America mostly because they're choaitc energy together would drive England up the wall and honestly, i love that image. Like imagine France cooking food while America lounges on the counter while England is grumbling on the phone to a very confused japan.

[@Opsonium]

Honestly, what you said about America not fitting into the romantic settings is one of the reasons I headcannon him as a clueless aroace. He always seemed too out of tune in romantic pieces with him starring in.

[@Icedefender-bo6js]

Omg thank you! The same reason I don’t like USUK is the also the same reason I don’t like spainmano. I get that in the manga he proposed or something Idk? But Spain was a adult when Romano was a kid. I just see Spain as a fatherly figure to Romano.

[@PuppyLove2468]

Yeah that's my biggest issue with it, it's just icky when the parental figure dates the kid once their older

[@melisunstable6804]

Honestly, I think the relationship between them (Spain and Romano) is more brotherly than the relationship between America and England. For America and England is more of a father and son relation. But, I feel like as Spain and Romano kinda grew up a bit more their brotherly bond turned into more of a friendship kinda thing. Therefore leading to a somewhat possibility for them to be lovers. But that is merely my opinion.

[@mikai4738]

I don't ship USUSK either and I used to ship Spamano but then I realized that it really gives me more of a brotherly/family relationship than a romantic one. (and well, I'm also tired to see Romano always being portrayed as the total tsundere while Spain is the sweet sunshine dude who loves Romano sooo much)

[@fatcat1414]

Alright, separate comment just to explain some of the ships in the video that I personally enjoy: Germano is honestly just born of my love for enemies to lovers. Most of Romano's explicit hatred for Germany seems to take place in WW2, which is understandable considering the state of Italy at the time. He seems to view Germany solely based on stereotypes and government actions. I can imagine them starting to see eye to eye during the Cold War. Germany would start seeing how hard working Romano is given the right motives (rebuilding after WW2), and Romano would start to see a more human side to Germany as he copes with both the aftermath of the war and the separation between him and his brother (something Romano could relate too). It's not so much the canon interactions as it is the potential for character and relationship development. RusGer is appealing to me personally because they are similar in terms of personal histories and character. They both have rough, violent histories that affected how they act in wildly different ways, and they are both confirmed to be extremely lonely. Seeing how they interact with each other and overcome past disputes makes for an interesting pairing. Another reason is that the aesthetic of two threatening, misunderstood characters confiding in and being sweet with each other is just super cute. Honestly, I ship USUK just because I'm American and went into the fandom with limited knowledge of world history, so USUK was the easiest for me to grasp onto initially. Plus the way the relationship between the nations IRL has changed over time makes for a compelling way to show character growth and romantic development. I can understand anyone who feels icky about it though. I feel RusPrus would make a good couple in an AU where either they are not nations or the relationships between the characters as people were less hostile. It's an interesting "what if" scenario. Sometimes I ship it as portrayed in canon purely for the sake of angst. It can be through either the overcoming of grudges or through the depiction of a toxic or straight-up abusive relationship. I don't condone unhealthy relationships IRL, but seeing how a fictional character acts within one is super intriguing. I think pretty much every piece of RusPrus content is OOC, so you aren't alone there. The ship is damn good when done right though. TL;DR: I ship many of the pairings in this video based off their potential as an interesting couple, not solely on how their relationships are depicted in canon or historically. I really like writing and reading stuff with dramatic character studies, and these pairings sort of open up a road to that exploration.

[@MissFJONES]

As someone who was involved in the Yuri scene of the Hetalia fandom early on I can try to explain Belarus/Liechtenstein. Note that I haven’t been involved in the English fandom since 2012 so things I mention here have obviously changed now. In the early days, despite Hungary, Liechtenstein, Belarus, and Ukraine being the only ones who had gotten the most focus in the series, all of the female nations had their dedicated fans who would create fanworks for them, and they were looking for characters to ship them with. Those who liked Het were lucky as all the female nations have relationships with men, but with Yuri it was trickier as there were very few canon interactions between the women. So, fans began to create crack ships, pairing the characters based on shared characteristics, traits, or what they imagined would be adorable. This is reflected in their Japanese shipping tags. Hungary/Belarus - Maid daughters pair (they both wear maid outfits) Belgium/Ukraine - Katyusha daughters pair (they both wear headbands) Hungary/Taiwan - Flower maiden pair (they both have flowers in their hair) Taiwan/Seychelles - Island country daughters pair (both nations are islands) Of course, some people looked for ships with historic backing behind them, but mostly people were just shipping whatever looked cute and created their own headcanons. As for Belarus/Liechtenstein their shipping tag is "Younger sister pair", and their origin exactly what you stated--the fact that both of them are two sisters who like their brothers. People thought it was cute that both of them like their brothers, and the difference in how they express that was even funnier. There's a few pieces of fanart where people swap their personalities, just to show how funny the difference is. This difference in personality is a factor why people ship them, it could be a case of opposites attract. Not to mention some fans of Belarus really want a healthier shipping option for her, and believe Liechtenstein could be one. Somehow, Belarus/Liechtenstein really took off in the Yuri scene and it was the top Yuri ship next to Taiwan/Vietnam, a ship that later on ended up having sweet interactions in canon and could be seen as more “credible.” I don’t know how popular Belarus/Liechtenstein is nowadays--if fans have come up with different ways of shipping it or if any Yuri ships have surpassed it since--but that’s how it began, from what I know.

[@wannabehistorian371]

I seriously don’t understand why you’d ship something just because it’s yaoi or yuri. Can’t you just... ship based on chemistry, interactions, etc? I’ve seriously never understood this.

[@MissFJONES]

@@wannabehistorian371 I can't speak about Yaoi, but Yuri tends to be overshadowed by both Yaoi and Het. Unless it's a series with mostly female characters, Yuri tends to be the least shipped thing in most fandoms, so those who like Yuri has often had to go for obscure or crack ships to be able to ship the thing they like. It doesn't help that in some media female characters just rarely interact or have relationships, and this lead to Yuri fans having to ship things based of headcanons and "what ifs" instead of canon. In the last few years Yuri has gotten more attention and it's much more common than it used to be, but back then you just had to deal with it and ship crack.

[@wannabehistorian371]

I think you’d also be surprised how Gil’s place isn’t as assured in Pixiv lol. Not only does he always bottom to Tolys, but he’s the only one I could find a consistent amount of women-on-top smut for (Yes, Roddie legit bottoms less to Liza than Gil does). There was also lots of SpaPru. Also if you search for Ivan-on-bottom smut (右ヴァーニャ), the most common seme is Al, but you’d also find: A shocking amount of LietRus EngRus FraRus An EstRus fic A few ItaRus A shocking amount of JapRus And many more There’s also the LatRus Omegaverse fic I mentioned. Also there was one comic where the Baltic trio somehow set up Ivan to be tortured or raped or _something_ on camera and were watching it as Kiku got threatened with the same fate by Tolys. Though it probably shows how much of an uke the fandom sees Yao as with the fact that ChuRo is so rare though lol (two illustrations and one fanfic). I said to a friend once that if an Asian guy and white guy are shipped, the white guy will almost always top, which as a general rule is true though. Also, believe it or not, ItaGer exists. Feli can be anything from reluctant seme to naive seme to straight-up vibrator-up-the-ass for an entire meeting. One fic (or was it doujin? I forgot) even had Feli watch stoically as he let everyone else have a go at Lud. ...Yes, *I’ve seen sh-t.* Though honestly a bit disappointed by the fact that this fandom was probably as big as Touken Ranbu or Detective Conan or whatever else, but for some reason every single girl always bottoms in het with few exceptions (mostly a few scattered HunPru fics) while I’ve seen tons of femdom for straight girls for the above-mentioned fandoms in my Pixiv walks. Like I’m talking like pages and pages of ‘em. Or maybe it’s something particular to Touken Ranbu and Detective Conan, since a lot of the examples of this I found were from those fandoms.

I’m a multi shipper (I do not ship the incest ships sorry). I can explain prucan at least from MY view. BEFORE I SAY THIS I SHIP THEM BOTH ROMANTICALLY AND PLATONICALLY I FEEL IT COULD WORK EITHER WAY. Their opposite personalities can cause a lot of development and realization. Prussia has been seen encouraging quite a few people. (I.E Japan, Romano). He encouraged them both to break out of their shells and be less shy. I feel like he could possibly help Canada with that too. And with Canada, he is rather submissive but if you think about his history he is INCREDIBLY strong. Prussia likes strength but he also likes submission. While that isn’t the healthiest relationship thought let’s go back to how strong Canada actually is, he could easily beat Prussia. (Given how he’s not even a country anymore). So something that Prussia could possibly admire and seen as worthy of his attention. I feel as though they’re so opposite (personality wise) and so similar at the same time (strength wise). Because even the writer said that Prussia does indeed have a soft spot. Like I said. I could ship them both platonically or romantically. I do t really care. I feel like they’d be great friends but also a pretty solid relationship. Whatever you think though, I don’t mind! 🧡

[@помидорка-х2е]

Ok, let me tell you about russian shippers, because they can do some incredible things like write a RusPrus fic where non of them will be out of the character. There will be whole USSR, I mean all mentioned in anime republics. Headcanon about Prussia-Kaliningrad is also very popular, and there are some fics about 90s years of 20th century after Soviet collapse. Actually, there are a lot of works about 18th century and seven years' war. Maybe because all paragraphs in russian history books about these are written as fanfiction. Especially about Peter the Third. “Friedrich II, in desperation, tried to poison himself, then to abdicate. However, in the midst of the final stage of the war, the Empress Elizabeth died. And Peter the third, who came to the throne, hastened to stop hostilities and make peace with his idol.” - this is a quote. In this way, and during this period RusPrus doesn't look like something strange, right?

[@solitusutopia]

Honestly, PruCan is just one of those ships which both have little to no interaction with each other, but they prehaps would make an interesting dyanamic if they did meet in canon. We also have the whole blog thing so there's that. They're both lonely so if they did get together and become friends in canon, neither would have to worrry about the other getting distracted with someone else. Correct me if I'm wrong, but Prussia was one of those characters who never forgot about Canada. That's just why I ship this and there may be other points I missed on.

[@kassye1624]

I get you in Prucan. I'm a person that needs some positive interaction to even think about shipping them together. I did read somewhere (when I searched why is Prucan popular, lol) that they had interacted at least one time. I find it kind of silly that people started shipping it because Prussia likes Canada's maple syrup or whatever (that's what some people told me. Correct me if I'm wrong). Because of Prussia liking maple syrup, Prucan became popular? Like, England secretly likes McDonald's like America, and Prussia love beer like Germany...Sure, Prucan is not incest and debatable incest. I'm certain that people started shipping Prucan for other reasons; some people have said that Prussia didn't mistake Canada for America, which is nice. And some people found the fanart cute, and some of the points made in the video (Both are forgotten characters, but like it was said on the video, Prussia is not a forgotten character.) But, Prucan, it just doesn't make sense to me, and can't ship it at all. I'm sorry If I sounded like a dick.

As a usuk shipper i just want to give some reasons why i ship and enjoy usuk other then it simply being cute to me. America and England have had several episodes and in the manga where they are seen together quite a lot such as; In the halloween episode where America met up with England privately and stated that England was America's first follower which already shows some kind of connection between them. During world war two when America was eating burgers and was nearly incomprehencable in the manga people were able to translate what he was saying to England into "i want to put you in a carnival outfit and sway your hips provocatively at them" whilst blushing as he speaks. How when America made a plane that was supposed to "beat the holy hell" out of England, he wanted to show it off to him before doing anything with it. When America made friends with a whale, England thought he was lonely and offered to be his friend whilst seeming rather shy about it, which is unusual for England. In a post from Hima's blog it basically translates to "America would do anything to make England dress up with him and even if England hadn't been America's first follower, he would have found another reason to get him to" which we see in the halloween episode where he does just that. When England is sick, America barges in and tries to help him just as France starts being weird (and seemingly wanted to take advantage of England since he was more vulnerable) and even though he was really bad at looking after England, he still tried. America was upset that England didn't give him chocolate on valentines day (which is usually something that is reserved for lovers). Later England does actually get him a chocolate bar whilst blushing heavily and stuttering. In paint it white during the battle against the aliens England calls out for America rather then worrying about himself or anyone other then America. They often hang out with one another or simply just spend time together. France has said that England is useless to mostly anything unless it involves himself (England) or America. And in human ages England is only 4 years older then America (England being 23 and America 19) and they have no blood connection so it's not like it's pedophilla or incest (but with countries it is hard to tell most of the time though). Etc. You may not see these as usuk moments or romantic at all but they at least show that their is some kind of strong connection between them. These are just some of the moments and things that have influenced me to ship them but ship whatever you want as long as it doesn't hurt anyone else ^ ^

I saw Forbiden Video, but it didn't caught my attention, but then I saw Portugal on it, and here I am. Longa vida ao Bacalhau! Also, if you need help to end up with the "copyright" issue, I know a good place to hide the corpses. Just saying that if you need help, we have your back. Love from Portugal

[@birdpersondaniel185]

We ship everyone with anything in this community. Heck we already have Iceland x fridge as a thing. There's a hetalia shipping guide on the channel. But yeah, welcome to the Hetalia fandom.
