(oldish) character profile

posting this just for my reference since this is the one character profile I keep on losing.



■スペイン■
■Spain■

・空気は徹底的に読めない。読む気もない。
・He is completely unable to read situations. He doesn't even try.
・大らかで陽気な性格の元太陽が沈まない国。
・He is a country of everlasting sunshine which is the source of his big hearted, cheerful personality.
・本当にノリノリだったのは一時期だけでオランダやイギリスにぼこぼこにされ、
 追い打ちに新入りアメリカに叩きのめされ大国の座を引きずりおろされて、
 周りの大国に振り回されるかわいそうな歴史を歩んだ。
・He used to be in really high spirits but in a short time he was beaten down by England and Holland.
He has walked through a pitiful history of being knocked down from his seat of a major power by the newcomer America he was going after and showed of by the surrounding major powers.
・なぜか南イタリアだけは自分の財布が破産していても可愛がり続けた。
・For some reason only with South Italy he stays affectionate even when he's bankrupting his purse.

友達のスペイン人のおかげで関西弁になった可哀そうなキャラ。
He became this Kansai-ben speaking pitiful character thanks to a Spanish friend.
でも関西弁でよかったなと思う。あとハプスブルク家で結ばれた二国ですが
スペインの方が兄にあたるのには少し驚きました。兄の方が短命っていうのも切ないですね。
But I think it's good that he got Kansai-ben. Also, about the two countries linked by the Hapsburg-family, I was a little surprised that Spain got the older brother. It's also sad that the big brother's life was shorter.

I'm still a little unsure with how to read the bit about Austria/Hapsburg family. It was through my memory of this profile that I believe that Spain and Austria had a more brotherly relation then anything else. The arranged marriage is that of Philip I and Joanna of Castile, though fandom loves to say that Spain and Austria got married as well... Which wouldn't make sense, since that would mean that any marriage between royal families of Europe would mean that those countries got married as well. But then again, there is still the gay marriage strip in which Austria holds up a hand with a ring on it...

Unless otherwise stated, I'm still going with the assumption that Spain and Austria were NOT married and were brothers from another mother instead. :|b
