we could have an entire post on how fucked up countries are about love
America's way younger than Denmark but I figure he's had a fairly active sex life? Granted, "active" for him is basically "once a decade" but like you said, the countries have better things to do and worry about. Unless they're France. Wtf France must carry every STD, even ones that are extinct. Anyway, personal headcanon says that America has only ever been like three people in the history of forever that he's actually looked at and had to have a trillion cold showers, and two of those were Marylin Monroe and Gypsy Rose Lee. So. Yeah, nothing happened there.
I haven't given much thought on exactly how connected and circular countries are with their thoughts and emotions in relation to their people, but yeah I think on some level they do feed off one another. It might depend on the country and ~individualism~ but still yeah.
The widely accepted truth that "yeah there's personified countries out there" is one of the reasons I think that the Hetalia characters look at naysayers in Discedo and think they're retarded. Further on that, I think it's such a widely accepted truth that... it really hasn't had a significant impact on history? They go with people to the battlefield, they hang out at the mall, they're basically just looked upon in the historical context as society or even just average people, not godly figures that will solve all problems.
Interestingly, I wonder how often the countries are bugged by historians. I KNOW I'D BUG THEM.
