To Fans of Nyo!Belarus...
To any of you who named him “Arlovskaya”, do you know how surnames work in Russian-speaking countries? Also, did you read the kitawiki? It never said “Arlovskaya”, it said “Arlofsky” or “Arlovski”. Although, Arlovski is a real person, and I’m pretty sure Natasha’s surname isn’t Arlofskaya with an f.
Can any Russians and Belarusians confirm if Natalya/Natallia is still relevant? Is it an outdated name or still going? I feel most of the characters have old people name.
Update: Wikipedia said the Belarusian spelling is feminine “Арлоўская” (Arlouskaya, Arloŭskaja, Arlowskaya) or masculine “Арлоўскі” (Arloŭski, Arlowski) but I know every Belarusians will write however they think is correct, because we all think differently according to the language we understand. You know that internet meme what language do bilinguals/polyglots think in? The better question is what language rules do they think in? Example, came across a name on a social media handle “Bitl” and I thought “wait, I thought your name is Zhuk?” Turns out, Zhuk means beatle. (Edit: I mispelt beetle)
PS. Why did people name Romania “Vlad” after Vlad Tepes then proceeded to name him “Vladimir” when that’s a Russian name and Vlad Tepes the Impaler’s full name is right there, “Vladislav”. How did we fail that one?????
PPS. I forgot when I wrote this. This sat in my drafts forever.

So, what are the Male Nyotalia counterparts supposed to be like?
I'm aware that canonically, the Nyotalia counterparts are pretty much irrelevant to the series and were probably made for fun, but this has been bugging me for a while.
So, canonically, the female Nyos have personalities that are separate from their male counterparts. For example, Nyo!England is a "Kuudere" instead of a "Tsundere", Nyo!Russia is "emotionally unstable" instead of "childishly cruel", Nyo!France is more argumentative and protective of Canada, and Nyo!China is supposedly more difficult to read emotionally than China.
Female Nyos are also "stronger than their male counterparts." Nyo!Italy, Nyo!Romano, Nyo!America and Nyo!Germany are all total badasses and, according to Hima, "Hetalia with female Italy would not exist because she would keep beating everyone up."
We have all this info about the girls, but...what about the guys?
All we have are the canon designs, but no info on their personalities.
So I've been theorizing a bit. Let's say that the Nyos, regardless of gender, are meant to be stronger than their counterparts. With that in mind, would that make Nyo!Wy less of a Tsundere, or make Nyo!Belgium less insecure about his looks? With the way Hima writes his female characters, who are generally meant to be stronger than his male characters, this wouldn't make much sense.
I think a more likely theory is that the male Nyos are actually weaker and/or more soft-spoken in comparison to their female counterparts. I like to imagine that their personalities are like that of the first drafts of the original female characters (which would make sense in Nyo!Hungary's case since Hungary was originally going to be male and a pervert). But outside of that, perhaps Nyo!Belgium is all happy-go-lucky to compensate for low self-esteem? Is Nyo!Wy is a bit more aggressive and headstrong but secretly lonely (kinda like Ladonia)? Maybe Nyo!Belarus is more of a shy, mild-mannered Tsundere who mutters under his breath like how Belarus was originally meant to.
With that idea in mind, what do you guys think the Nyo!Guys' personalities would be like? I'm more than happy to hear your ideas, so please feel free to share(^-^)
Update: I forgot to include Nyo!Monaco, turns out he actually has a personality (against all odds😅).
"He's said to be strong, a gourmet, and enjoy driving, but he's rather bad at gambling despite the prevalence of casinos in Monaco. He owns a Japanese-style garden and has a weird, but good relationship with France, despite the one fight that they had (two days after the fight he said "It’s no good without big brother France" and they seem to have made up.) Oddly enough, the France he was depicted with, and as having an odd relationship with, was male France.
He was originally under Spain's protection, eventually wound up with France, then Italy, and then finally gained his independence with France's help, though he leans toward France nowadays." -Hetalia Archives
We can see here that Nyo!Monaco, while being considered "pretty strong", is still a lot more meek and soft-spoken compared to his female counterpart. Versus Monaco herself, who makes it abundantly clear from the moment you meet her that she bends backward for no one.
Thanks for further supporting my theory, HetaArchives.
This is also proof that the Nyos canonically coexist with their counterparts (other than Hima not specifying whether it was Canada or his Nyo that Nyo!France is protective of).

Thinking about nyo!belarus and how he’s just the most dashing looking guy. I personally headcanon him with long straight hair and the most hypnotic 1,000 yard stare to his deep blue- violet eyes. He’s the mysterious ice prince of Europe, but so elusive to all the women who fancy him.
He’s assumed to have no interest in romance. After all, what man could turn down such eligible suitors? He’s also had his fair share of males come to him thinking that they could steal his heart when women could not. But not one had such luck.
But his staff and close confidants know he is not immune to dreams. In times where things are quiet, and he isn’t working, he has this distant look. He dreams of ash blonde hair, almost white, like his own. It’s longer than his, but even softer. A girl whom he knows to be so strong, an anchor in his everlasting life. Someone who knows the cold as well as he does, and feels at home under snowy skies. He dreams of sparkling purple eyes.
The prince yearns for the princess.

Mini Profiles: Belarus (NYO)
Yandere type: Obsessive, Possessive
Traits: Clingy, Controlling, Manipulative, Smothering, Stalker, Violent
Is it Instant love or one that grow over time:
It depends it could take one instant of his darling doing something or it could be from knowing them over time.
Delusional level (0-10):
10, however it is hard to tell if he just doesn't care or he really is very delusional. Probably a mix of both.
How will do they hide their yandere side:
It's either due to his delusions or his non-caringness, but he doesn't hide it at all.
Danger level (0-10):
10, again because of either or both of those things it doesn't matter who it is he is getting his darling one way or another.

Nyo Ukraine and Nyo Belarus?
Nyo Belarus
1. I don't think I'd portray him the same as how regular Belarus is obsessed with marrying her brother. Although I tend to downplay this in my own stuff for regular Belarus
2. I think the nyo Lietbel dynamic would be funny because Nyo Belarus just looks like someone who if someone had a crush on them he'd just be like "the fuck do you want bitch?" Nyo liet swoons meanwhile everyone else why?
3. That piece of hair though! 🤣
4. He is in his own world i guess
5. He looks like a pissed off cat
Nyo Ukraine
1. In my google search some of the fanart makes him look like a Ukrainian Luke Skywalker
2. He looks so much like regular Russia and therefore he looks gay
