Announcement
‘sup kids. This blog is dead, that’s really all.
I will not be updating this blog anymore, even though I did say I was going to. I’ve lost all interest in this blog and I feel incompetent in fulfilling whatever I wanted to on this blog. The ask box is closed.
I’ll keep this blog open for the sake of people, for some ungodly reason, enjoying whatever the fuck’s on this blog. Maybe, if I ever feel like I’m capable of living up to what I wanted to do, I’ll come back, but probably not.
A PSA
Rules are written by the muns for a reason. It does not take long to click on it. We make it as simple as we can for you so you don’t have to sift through the blog. We know that seeing your favorite blogger can get you excited or that you want to ask us something as quickly as possible but please:
Read our rules
We take our own time out to write them so that you don’t have to worry about topics we are uncomfortable with.
Remember, we are people too. Please be considerate.
Ask Open! | rules + about
Ask box is officially open!
[ Hiiiiii.... I’m not.. completely dead? Someone here (eyes @ask-mr-luxembourg) is sort of getting me back into Hetalia. Anyway. I’ll maybe be able to post more now that my studies abroad have abruptly come to a halt. I’ll be travelling back from Denmark to the Netherlands tomorrow, so maybe I’ll still be able to draw some when I’m on the plane or whatever.
Please stay safe, everyone! My heart goes out to all of you in these dire times and I hope everyone is well. Stay inside if you can and don’t take this shit lightly, please. I’m only travelling back because my government requested that, if possible, students abroad should come back. When I get back, I’m gonna quarantine myself so I don’t risk infecting people or getting infected. ]
Denmark ! , What is like having a Dutch boyfriend ( ^∀^)

The Netherlands is/was Holland. It is the same thing...... Technically since they are the same regional area and have only switched names, and government
((I’m pretty sure that you think your point of view is factual and that my extensive research and being a native Dutch person is not enough to provide real information on this topic <3
But let me assure you that The Netherlands is not and never was ‘Holland’. The County of Holland was first and foremost a state at the beginning when it was under the Holy Roman Empire’s rule. It later on in 1581 [when the Low Countries started their rebellion against Spain in the 80 years war and declared themselves independent] became one of the 8 7 provinces of “The 7 United Provinces of The Netherlands”. In 1840 it has been split into Noord-Holland and Zuid-Holland as it became too dominant of a province for The Netherlands.
The Netherlands itself used to be for a long time called The Low Countries, consisting of modern day Belgium, Luxembourg, The Netherlands, a small part of Northern France and a small part of Western Germany. It has gotten its current name [The Netherlands] after Belgium had split off from it in 1815 and consisted roughly of the area it covers today, meaning it covered Holland as well as many, many other provinces and regions.
Confusion may have occurred to you when you’ve read about the Kingdom of Holland, which was a brief period of only four years where The Netherlands had this name. It was only named this because of Napoleon Bonaparte’s brother, Louis Bonaparte, tried to make it easier to control The Netherlands this way as it lead to more less confusion.
Or perhaps confusion occurred when you’ve read about the VOC company operated from the province of Holland that acted as a sovereign state with its own governmental rights to establish monopolies in trade in the 17th century. As they were mostly people from this province, and people in provinces felt very patriotic and proud of their roots, they would call themselves Hollanders instead of Nederlanders. Provinces in The Netherlands can be seen as the states in for example Germany, where each had their own little governments and leaders and would even wage war against each other at times.
Of course our old trusty friend Wikipedia will always clear up misunderstandings:
In the national anthem of The Netherlands in the 10th stanza, which was written in the 16th century, it speaks of Neerland which was old-fashioned Dutch for The Netherlands.
Therefore, long story short:Holland is merely a region of The Netherlands and has never been the entirety of the country nor vice versa.
I hope this has cleared up any confusion you’ve had about Holland and The Netherlands, because if not I recommend you watching this video that I’ve shared here before and has a bit more information:
I’ve just crammed a year’s worth of education on The Netherlands from my blog into a small post and I’m just thrilled to know that you’ve never read any of it, it really makes my day.
But thankfully I’m always up for talking and giving out information about my country and I’m pretty well educated in it so it didn’t take me too long to wrap this up for you. Have a nice day! <3))
Just a little something to make it visual for you that ‘Holland’ does not in fact cover the entire country <3
Mister Netherlands I love you
“Dankje though, I guess.”
Serious talk
// Ok guys. Im a little worked up over something silly that was said on a forum. But I need to say.
I'm a adult. If you have a problem with people who are over 18, If you think people over 18 are dangerous perse don't follow this blog. I mean it. Im over 30. If that scares you, click that little unfollow button right now.
If you think I'm looking to get dirty with minors. Man I can't even go to the toilet without a kid hanging on my legs. The last thing I'm looking for is sex, tbh. Truth be told I haven't any for months, not even a kiss, and that's fine. You know what Im graving? To simply sit be myself reading a book with a single prosecco. That's it! Sex that's the teens domain. Have fun with it. Im done. My body is a battlefield after childbirth. My hormones are crazy and im still breastfeeding. At least one person still likes them tiddies XD.
For someone who got hate for my age in this fandom I feel a little worked up over this. As if the time you hit 18 you are suddenly a possible predator. And if you are over 25 and have friends who are 15 its getting suspicious. Ofcourse there are pedo's grooming minors. But teens have some responsibility of their own. And dont you dare mistake minors are not capable of forcing other minors into doing things that they are not comfortable with. As if it is something exclusive for older people. Minor girls get other minor girls into prostitution by acting their besties on schoolgrounds. Yes thats a thing. Im sorry for getting a little emotional here but Im so fucking done with getting hate over my age. If you got a problem with me or anybody else take some responsibility and BLOCK that person. Ive literally been stalked for years as a kid and being called a pedo is SO absolutely disgusting and hurtfull to me. Its great if people are carefull YOU SHOULD but if you have a problem with older people just because they are old you need to talk to a professional. If my presence on tumblr here is offending you. Block me. Have a nice day.

[ I tried so hard and got so far, but in the end it doesn’t even matter, because my arse is super biased when it comes to this specific Denmark account. I tried to tone it down a little so it’d definitely be more answered by Ned than mun. So to explain the ratings, please take a seat and welcome to my TED talk;
Ned isn’t particularly very keen on romantic relationships, I suppose. Not the type of person to easily fall in love or develop crushes. He’s not aromantic, but more demiromantic and doesn’t experience romantic interest often. He’s more at home with appreciating the beauty in something or someone as well as how sexually appealing they’d be to him; romance does not equal sex.
To him, Denmark is like an Adonis; tall, muscular and built like a warrior. He appreciates that both aesthetically as well as sexually. I’ll explain more about sexual attraction under a cut because NSFW lmao.
As for sensual attraction; my muse doesn’t necessarily hate physical contact, but he also isn’t a fan of things such as PDA and therefore any unnecessary contact in public is pretty much a big no for him. Only in the privacy of his own home would he consider cuddling, but more so because Denmark would want to do that. ]Under the cut the sexual part of this bullshit

Please read rules/guidelines/FAQs on ask blogs
I cannot stress this enough.
I've noticed that some of my buddies have been getting asks that have drained their motivation and energy to reply to asks simply because people don't read.
We do not put up rules/guidelines/FAQs for nothing. They are there so that we, as content creators, are also able to enjoy doing what we do and still be able to provide for our followers. We want this to be enjoyable for both sides and it'd be really helpful to all parties if everyone read rules/guidelines/FAQs.
So please read them before you send asks, it's so disrespectful when you don't and then do exactly what the creator asked not to be asked about.
He drink wayyyyyy too much coffee for his own good
