Beer was really unpopular with the Romans because they thought it to be a barbaric drink (unlike wine which was very 'civilised' and very 'Roman') so the thought of Rome bribing England with a pint so he'd stop being such a pain in the bum is pretty funny to me.
been rethinking the canon and thinking about how country personifications came to be and shit... more to come.. for now heres how Antonio and Francis met (and technically Rome)
just started school yesterday so expect less art but anyways!! not really historically accurate i just like to imagine mama greece and rome being friends sometimes :3 and lil heracles being protective of his mama and looking at rome like 🤨
Ok, so hetalia AU, but instead of rome being in heaven ig? he just wanders around as a ghost apposed to all of the other dead nations in heaven ig? And he just has all the time in the world to think about every mistake he's ever made and he watches the italys and cry's and he's actually so sad because he'll wander around the world for all eternity forever and he will most likely never be able to see his family and friends ever again and when the end of the world comes everyone will be together except for him so he's left floating in what was the world while everyones like "wheres rome?"alone, forever
Ancient Rome belongs to Hidekaz Himaruya. My human name for him is Gaius Valerius Romanus.
OCs from my Hetalia fic "World Histories Collection": www.fanfiction.net/s/13451091/…
Latium (Human name: Lavinia Valeria Silva): Ancient Rome's mother. She was a highly-respected kingdom of ancient Italy, but her son was often treated with contempt and disdain by other Italic peoples when he was a child.
Etruria (Human name: Tarchon): Ancient Rome's father. He and Latium had a fling that resulted in Rome, but Etruria, himself, never acknowledged Rome as his son.
Sabine (Human name: Clodia Aemilia Sabina): Rome's wife. He abducted her when she and her people visited his city for a festival. Despite basically being forced into marrying him, Sabine has grown to love her husband and his constant infidelity causes her a lot of pain. She is the daughter of Umbria and Osca, neither of whom like Rome. Sabine and Rome had three children together, the three original Romulean tribes.
Ramnes (Human name: Lucius Valerius Romanillus): The first of the three Romulean tribes, comprised of the Latins. He eventually came to represent the Western Roman Empire after it was split. He is the father of many Italian city-states, as well as both Northern and Southern Italy. He was always Rome's favorite child, though the two of them did have a major fight when Rome hooked up with Ancient Egypt. He was married twice; first to Magna Graecia, whom he divorced, and later to Adriatic Veneti. He was killed during one of the sackings of Rome.
Tities (Human name: Titus Valerius Sabinus): The second of the Romulean tribes, representing the Sabine population in Rome. Due to how the Sabines became largely integrated with the general Roman populace, he struggled to find a new group to attach his existence to. Ultimately, his lack of identity and his resentment of his older brother led Tities and Ramnes to lead rival factions in every Roman civil war until the assassination of Julius Caesar. Tities was one of the assassins and died shortly after Brutus and Cassius were defeated.
Luceres (Human name: Gaia Valeria Lasa): The third Romulean tribe, she initially represented the Etruscans in Rome (possibly, it is unclear). Like Tities, her people largely blended into the Roman populace, but she was able to last by attaching her identity to the Vestal Virgins. Due to being a nation, and unable to die, she would substitute herself for any Vestals falsely accused of sexual immorality and be buried alive in their place; she would then dig herself out and return to the temple. She eventually faded away after the College of Vestals was dissolved in the 380s.
