How The Alliances Came To Be

One day, America joined a cool club house called ATLANTIS. It had all the other cool kids in it, and was the envy of all those smelly kids from the European side of town. They weren't allowed in because they sound different and funny, and were sometimes different colors, while we Americans fear differences in others who are also foreign. We know it, and accept it, and are kind of okay with it. ANYWAY.

The European kids decided to form their own clubhouse, only they got it all wrong, and called it PEACE so they could go around Waring all over everyone.

Sweden decided it wanted Germany, and attacked. Germany had a weak stomach though, and barfed all over ATLANTIS. Thus, ATLANTIS was no more. Who wants to be covered in sticky goo?

And so the good kids from the right side of the European tracks renamed their clubhouse EDEN after PEACE's War burned it down. The next clubhouse was gonna be -PERFECT-.

Well, we kinda screwed that up, but we got it better than PEACE did, and America decided to be special BFF's with just Canada,... and maybe Australia later...


Oh yeah, mandatory hot girl to break up the tl;dr.

In PEACE was important nations like France, and Russia, and especially Indonesia, which used to be awesome back then and not just a lil' corn nubblet with a loud loud voice like it is mostly now, though it can -still get caught in your throat and make your eyes water and make you cough. -.-

But England hadn't yet joined, who was still pretending to be friends with Canada and America so he could steal their Pokemon cards when they weren't looking.

Until one day he saw they had a charizard holographic still inside a plastic they'd gotten together with Christmas money to buy!

They went =o , and had to have it. Forsaking their friendship, he stole it and fled to the only other clubhouse in town, PEACE, who let him in only because none of -them- had a Charizard yet. At least, not a holographic one in mint condition.

Though, it must be said, EDEN and ATLANTIS were not as blameless as we may claim, back then. With the testosterone of youth coursing through us and the knowledge that we were the football players on the block, it was easy for us to strut our stuff. Romania liked to chase Russia around with a stick. Also Indonesia. Plus Russia again.

And so PEACE was somewhat formed of necessity, as they -did- need somewhere to flee. Thus the nature of the alliance is revealed, PEACE and FIST were where they ran when they were crying, even though the clubhouse was in Hungary's backyard, and he was a bit of a dick, and made everyone do things his way or go home without a snack.

While ATLANTIS was where friends went to share stories of how fun it is to pelt Mexico with rocks, or why Brazil was just -asking- for that smack in the mouth for shoving South Africa in the mud, when she wasn't doing -ANYTHING- to -ANYONE-, except wearing the expensive earrings her father got her on their last Christmas together.

But some people have /no/ scruples.

But those were older times.

As PEACE matured, they realized Romania had painted their sign in rainbow colors, and they really -did- look pretty gay. While they were, they had not yet come out to their families and friends let alone themselves, and so were both outraged and afraid.

Our name must be changed! They said. What's the coolest animal we can think of?! Hmmm. And thus, PHOENIX was born from the ashes of their very effeminate sign, symbolically burned.

Also, Hungary, like England, had a habit of going through his friends things, though he was bold enough to do it infront of them. Shortly thereafter he would mention the thieving England roving about and claim it would be safer if -he- held on to the trinket, "just for a while."

A while, it would later be discovered, seems to be Hungarian for "forever".



Though at the time, this was unknown, and later caused France to throw many a hissy fit.

Oh, also, Canada and America named their BFF-ship the Brolliance, forever symbolizing their Brotherhood, should any particular incidents occur at a later date in a malt shop.

Hmmm... I feel like it should also be noted that Greece and Turkey lived just across the tracks from one another and were constantly shoveling shit over each other's fences, which was an extreme nuisance to all despite being entirely fruitless for both.

America and Canada did get their Charizard card back, after the big guy Poland kicked down England's front door. Even though England opened the package, and locked himself in the bathroom before Poland could properly smack him around for his transgressions. Never again did they let him in their clubhouse again.



Thus was the evolution of the alliances.
