[Holy crap, Canada is even larger!] I didn't even realize that countries came in that kind of size. [A thoughtful pause.] Tevinter might have, back when it was a flourishing empire, but no country in Thedas has that kind of size these days.
[Then she notices Russia the USSR. And she just stares.]
She's even further away. Your time period must have some amazing sorts of transportation and technology, if you can communicate with countries so far away from you.
Totally. He knows he's going to go through an increadibly tough time when Russia goes down
Well he went to North Korea for a while over here.
[Also tiny]
But yeah he tends to leave most of the fighting to the smaller of us. He and Russia have been fighting wars in other countries against each other for a while now. Only they don't say they're really at war. Just "helping" people. Or in America's case just being an ass and lieing about it.
You know he's still trying to kill my boss?
Leliana would totally help if she could. :( She likes her not!husband.
So... America and Russia do not get along at all, then? But they fight this battle in lands other than their own... [Seems pretty cowardly, really.]
Is he? You would think that he would learn to give up after awhile. What good would a political assassination be for him? [Well, unless you live in Antiva. But that county is a special case, and neither Cuba nor America seem at all similar to the place.]
Hate each others guts. Thing is they both have really powerful weapons. They use them, the entire world could be destroyed. So they can't risk directly fighting each other. They hide behind fake wars.
Yeah. That bastard. Oh he's just pissed he didn't get rid of my government the first time. Now he just wants to get rid of my boss because we made them look like idiots.
I see. [Oh, politics. They really aren't much different no matter where you go, it seems.]
I hope he is not successful. It's a petty reason to want someone to die. [She would know. She used to make a living off of petty reasons for people to die.]
Most of his plans have been crap so far so we're not really worried. Luckily thanks to that whole mess with the missales we got an offical agreement from that bastard not to invade us.
He tries anything obvious and the whole world finds out he doesn't keep his word. And since he likes to see himself as a "hero" who never does anything bad, that one would be hard to explain.
Forgive my ignorance here, but I don't know what a missile is, so I can't begin to imagine what 'that whole mess' could be. [There's so much WEIRD TECHNOLOGY here!]
I find it odd that he claims to be a hero while picking on countries smaller than himself.
Long story short. They're really powerful weapons. I let Russia put some in my country and that freaked America out. He put a blockade around my house and for a while we all thought there might be a real problem.
Luckily we all came up with an agrement and solved the mess before everyone died.
Yeah, he's a lying bastard. Ask Vietnam. We can't figure out how no one see's through him.
Well there's the Netherlands over here. He's...kinda weird but good friends with Canada. France is here, he's a pervert. Englands here, odd guy he raised America and Canada. Austraila's way over here. He comes up with nicknames for everyone. Taiwans over here, she likes to claim she's China but no one really believes her. Japan is over here, he's kinda quiet.
Uh oh...My friend Belgium is right here. She's Netherlands sister, I grew up with her and him because of Spain.
[And he has a bit of a crush on her.]
Speaking of which. All over here. Brazil, Mexico, Argentina...all the countries in this area. My family...sort of. They're not in the town though.
[There's no way she's going to remember all of that, but at least she's been informed and has something resembling a frame of reference.]
It seems like many of the people in town are from this continent here. [She points to Europe.] Is there any reason why that might be? I mean, you're the only person of your own family here, but there seem to be a lot of you.

[Then she notices
Russiathe USSR. And she just stares.]his version of modern is 1988
Oh yeah, That's Russia. He's my ally. Apparently he dissolves in the future though...not looking forward to that.
[Points out a few satalite states.]
That's Hungary. Those two over there are Russia's sisters, Ukraine and Belarus.
Duly noted! Not that it makes all that much difference to Leliana.
People have spoiled a lot of the future for him anyway.
[Points under China.]
That HAS to be weird for him.
Totally. He knows he's going to go through an increadibly tough time when Russia goes down
Anyway. Like I said. America tried to overthrow my government.
[Points and wow size difference should be noticed again. As in America you bully.]
He was also at war for a long time with Vietnam.
Sad times. :(
Does he only do this to countries that are so much smaller than he is?
Sad hungary times

Hooray he has a friend.

And where does your friend Vietnam live? In town, I mean.
no subject
Just two houses down on this street actually. She's usually at Russia's house though.
no subject
[That's just mean, Mayfield.]
I can't say that I blame her, if he's treated her even half as badly as he's treated you.
no subject
He actually went to war with her. Offically at war.
...some of the things that happened over there...it was disgusting to see.
no subject
I won't ask. War is ugly.
[There's a long pause.]
Thank you for showing me this. It really does... illuminate things.
no subject
[He shrugs.]
Not a problem. Anything else you want to know about on here?
[Indicating the map.]
no subject
You said there were several other countries in town. Maybe you could point a few of them out for me?

For some reason Mattie and I are the only ones from this side of the world here. ...not counting that bastard.
Guess they liked Europe for some reason.

I'm sure I will come up with more questions for you as the days pass, but I think this is plenty for now. Thank you again for showing me all of this.
