Aph Greece - Blog Posts

So, I was doing some research on Greek tragedies, and I found out about this Tragedy called Oresteia (Ορέστεια). I managed to learn about something that happened in 1903. This event is called Ορεστειακά. To sum up, Greece had 2 official languages at the time Δημοτική ( the Greek we speak now) and Καθαρεύουσα(A weird mix of ancient and modern Greek), there was this one professor who translated this tragedy from ancient to Modern greek but The second one. So this caused a huge dilemma in Athens and so People fought one another causing two deaths. This also happened before but I’ll explain later. So now my head is thinking about how Greece would be affected by this. Like would he have a headache? Maybe just a paper cut idk.

Would nations get traits off of their rulers? Or maybe physical traits? Like when Trump was in charge, what traits did America get? If he got any tbh. Probably they are affected by what the political party believes? Like some nations would be more liberal, I guess, but other nations are uh not really. I know that sometimes nations do not even want those bosses (a head canon of mine). I think that France didn’t want Marie Antoinette and Louis XIV ruling. Or Greece hating the monarchy (it wasn't even Greek to begin with).

Names in Hetalia are weird.Like I’m fine with some like Matthew Williams(Canada),but some others I’m confused. Ex. Alfred F. Jones. WHAT THE FUCK DOES THE F STAND FOR??Also we know that certain nations are related to one another, so why don’t they have the same last name? Is it bc of the different cultures, or something else? Also some names and last names are spelt wrong, for example Greece’s last name shouldn’t be Karpousi it should be Karpouzis (Καρπούζης). The one that annoys me the most Lithuanias. is it fucking Tolys or Toris. Most likely Tolys but I want to hear people tell me why it may be Toris.

When and Where would nations be “born”? Like we know that Egypt was born in 3000bc and in Ancient Egypt. But I don’t think we know anyone else. I Head-canon that Greece was born during the Hellenistic period, due to all of the Greek lands uniting (Literally all except for Sparta) with the “help” of Phillip II and Alexander the Great.I feel like it would be ironic if he was born in Lacedaemonia (Sparta), even though he is more philosophical and a lover of history in Canon,but he would most likely be born in Athens bc of said reasons. Would France be born in Gaul or in the Franks? There are a lot more people I would want to question but idk history of a lot of nations

Japan’s and Greece’s friendship in Hetalia has always weirded me out, bc we don’t really care about one another in real life so I searched about the relations between these two. Japan’s national poet is a Greek guy. I AM NOT KIDDING. Leukadios Hearn (Greek-Irish) went to america to work as a journalist, he found out about Japan and liked it so much he moved there, married a japanese woman and had children. He was the man who brought the japanese mythology and a lot of other stuff to the west. So, maybe thats one thing. 

I want to continue my “rant” about weird deaths in hetalia. Greece has died from chemicals but in a weird way, there used to be a prince of Greece in WW1 that loved wearing colourful socks, back then they used certain chemicals that if they go in your bloodstream you will die. So he went to the zoo and a fucking monkey bit him on his ankle and the chemicals went in him and died. Now that I am talking about ww1 there used to be a syphillis(how tf do you write that?)pandemic, so the government of every nation thought if they should or shouldn’t give condoms to their soldiers. Most did bc they knew that the soldiers would have sex despite told not to but the British decided not to do that. Yeah well 27% of Canadian soldiers caught syphillis, not bc they wanted to leave the war(that’s why other people caught syphillis, just to escape)but bc they wanted to have sex. Canada definitely caught an STD in ww1 but has kept it a secret. Also just found out that 2 presidents of France have died from a stroke during sex. Goddamn it France.

Can someone please answer this bc I’m confused. During 1915-1917 there was a national dispute between the king and the Prime minister in Greece what tf would Greece do in this? Like would he be in the side of king bc highest power or be with the PM since he has most of the people with him?

One thing I would like to see in Hetalia would be the raisin dispute between France and Greece. Back in the mid 1800s both countries made lots of raisins. However, France got hit with a fucking blight in the crops and couldn’t grow any, so they couldn’t sell it.So the Greeks decided to DESTROY EVERY OTHER TREE AND PLANTS THEY HAD TO PUT PLANTS TO MAKE RAISINS TO MAKE PROFIT. It worked for some years, I think, but then France got rid of the blight and was able to make raisins again so no one bought the Greek raisins and lots of people became homeless and poor. I Headcanons that even though Greece and France are good friends they fight for the best raisins to this day(Greece starts them).

I have been thinking, what would Greece’s and Egypt’s relations would be? During the revolutionary war of Greece one of the reasons it took so long was bc of Egypt’s fucking army destroying the Greek army bc they were trained by the French. So would they be close friends bc of the good relations in real life now or would Greece have hidden hatred for him bc of that?

"Renombremos Personajes de Hetalia”

Hi, este post me lo encontré hace algún tiempito ya y tenía muchas ganas de traducirlo. Y como tengo el permiso de quien lo creado pues yEI:D El post fue hecho a raíz del asunto de que muchos nombres y/o apellidos que tienen los personajes en sus versiones humanizadas no tenían demasiado sentido teniendo en cuenta cosas como cultura, idioma y demás.

Todos son libres de ocupar el nombre que gusten para cada nación, el objetivo de esta publicación es simplemente dar a conocer un punto de vista y renombrar a los personajes por gusto. No significa que DEBAN usarse dichos nombres.

Cabe destacar que la traducción no es literal ni totalmente precisa, pero hice lo que pude para que se entendiera en su totalidad, lo mayor posible o al menos casi por completo.

Sin más que agregar, paso a la lista de nombres y sus razones.

Nota: Los argumentos, nombres y/o apellidos marcados con una asterisco* tendrán mi propio punto de vista al final del post para que no haya ninguna confusión ni interrupción durante la lectura.

Italia del Norte= Francesco Vargas

(Francesco es un nombre común en Italia, también es el nombre de nuestro Santo Patrón. Como italiana, nunca he oído antes* de “Feliciano”);

Italia del Sur= Salvatore Vargas (Salvatore* es un nombre sureño muy típico, muy común en el Sur de Italia. También, Lovino no es un nombre italiano.)

Dejé el mismo apellido escogido por Himaruya sólo porque “Vargas” es un apellido italiano existente. (Si quieres saber, es realmente el nombre de jugador de fútbol);

Alemania= Ludwig Schmidt

(Solamente cambié el apellido, pienso que Schmidt es más común en Alemania y suena similar al original);

Japón= Daisuke Honda (Kiku es un nombre simbólico, realmente hermoso y raro, pero he pensado en darle a Japón un nombre común. Honda es un apellido japonés famoso, nada que decir acerca de eso);

USA= George F. Jones (El apellido así está perfecto, supongo. George es por George Washington y F. se queda por el mismo segundo nombre* que Kennedy);

UK= Arthur Thompson (No estaba segura sobre este. La primera vez pensé acerca de nombrarlo como “Oliver” debido a su popularidad y por Oliver Twist, o “John”. Pero entonces me di cuenta que Arthur está bien y es simbólico también. Así que he cambiado el apellido. Kirkland era bastante anónimo y quería algo que pudiera sonar más británico);

Francia= François Bonnefoy

(Solamente transformé “Francis”, la cual es la versión inglesa del nombre, en François, bastante usado y “francés”);

Rusia= Ivan Vasilyev (¡Braginski era un apellido polaco! He escogido algo que aún sonaba como “Branginski”, pero que a la vez fuese un verdadero apellido ruso);

China= Yao Wang (No encontré nada para cambiar aquí);

España= Antonio Fernandez García; (Antonio estaba bien, también Fernández es popular. Solamente he removido Carriedo para reemplazarlo con García, el cual se utiliza en gran parte de España/países hispanohablantes);

Prusia= Gilbert Schmidt (Gilbert era perfecto, solamente cambié el apellido);

Austria= Roderich Amadeus Wagner (Roderich estaba bien. He agregado “Amadeus” por Mozart y cambié el apellido a “Wagner”, siendo todavía un nombre de compositor. La combinación de estos tres me da me una impresión de nobleza);

Hungría= Ágnès Horváth (La renombré totalmente. Ágnès no sólo es tierno*, sino que también poco usado, creo. Encontré que Horváth es uno de los apellidos más comunes en Hungría);

Canadá= Matthew Williams (No veo nada mal aquí, ¿tal vez que tiene que ser un poco más francés?

Belarus= Natałlia Arłoŭskaja (Lo dejo como estaba; pero cambié la forma en que estaba escrito*);

Egypt= Muhammad Hassan Al-Nur; (Okay, Muhammad y Hassan son muy populares entre nombre árabes, así que los dejé así. Pero encontré que Gupta era un apellido hindú y que la letra “p” no existe en arábe. Entonces hice una lista de apellidos lindos y, al final, Al-Nur fue el ganador por encima del resto);

Estonia= Eduard Tamm (Tamm es bastante común);

Finlandia= Timo Hämäläinen (Tino realmente no era un nombre finlandés, pero TiMo sí. Hämäläinen es más común y una buena alterativa para Väinämöinen, que no es un apellido real);

Grecia= Αlexandros Ypsilanti; (Alexandros es un buen, conocido y elegante nombre. Alexandros Ypsilanti es también el nombre de un héroe nacional, durante la guerra de la independencia de Grecia);

Letonia= Raivis Liepa; (Raivis sí era un nombre letón, así que ¿Por qué no conservarlo así? Solamente cambié el apellido, Galante es en realidad un apellido italiano);

Lituania= Laurynas Valaitis (Cambié todo aquí para hacerlo realista, pero también para que sonara similar a “Toris Laurinaitis”);

Polonia= Feliks Łukasiewicz (Es normal justo como está);

Sealand= Peter Thompson (Sólo cambié el apellido);

Corea del Sur= Kim Yong Soo (Tal y como estaba);

Suecia= Gustav Lindström (Gustav fue el nombre de muchos reyes suecos. Lindström se usa bastante, creo)

Suiza= Noah Schweizer (Noah se usa comúnmente en todos los cantones, y el apellido suena germano);

Turquía= Sadık Adnan (Casi lo mismo. El nombre está escrito en turco*)

Bien, comenzando con lo que me gustaría comentar-

1-. No porque no se haya escuchado de un nombre significa que este no exista o no tenga cabida dentro de la cultura sooo... no estoy de auerdo con ese argumento, pero es sólo una opinión.

Francesco me gusta, principalmente la pronunciación. Y me agrada que se conservase la misma inicial.

2-. El nombre Salvatore me gusta pero siendo honesta no me agradan del todo nombres taaaan sonados. A menos que me parezcan demasiado bonitos como para ser dejados de lado en una elección. Pero el caos es, más que nada, que sea algo reconocible así que en esta parte soy solamente yo sendo muy ““picky”“

3-. Aquí es más una pequeña observación en el texto original.

Creo que el término correcto sería “middle name”, y no “second name”.

First Name, Second Name, Last Name George              F.                 Jones

4-. Difiero, perdón, pero Ágnès no me parece un nombre cute ^^Uu

En todo caso, Aneska/Anezka me parece más “lindo”. A mi parecer. Gusto personal.

5 y 6-. No me parece que sea “renombrar” si solamente estamos cambiando la escritura, tbh.

I mean, siento que es como en el caso de nombres árabes. No todos podemos entender el alfabeto ni el idioma mucho menos, por lo que es más fácil escribir el nombre con el alfabeto romano.

Espero que les haya gustado la traducción, si hallan algún error por favor háganmelo saber^^

Project "Rename Hetalia's characters"

Hello everyone! Let’s talk about it: one of the most annoying issues about Hetalia are *drum roll* the NAMES, people. Characters’ names/surnames, yes. So, with my friend, I wanted to give them a more “realistic” trait, starting with my nation’s one, Italy. I tried to change ONLY canon names, not those who are not decided yet (such as Belgium’s or Ukraine’s, for example). Some of them remained unchanged, because of specific reasons, but I would be glad if all of you could help me with your home country. Let’s begin!

N.Italy= Francesco Vargas (Francesco is a common name in Italy, also is our St. Patron’s name. As an italian, I’ve never head before of “Feliciano”);

S.Italy= Salvatore Vargas (Salvatore is a typical southern name, very common in South Italy. Also here, Lovino is not an italian name.)

I left the same surname chosen by Himaruya just because “Vargas” is an existent italian surname. (If you want to know, it’s actually the name of a football player);

Germany= Ludwig Schmidt (Only changed the surname here, I think Schmidt is more common in Germany and its sound is similar to the original surname’s one);

Japan= Daisuke Honda (Kiku is a symbolic name, really beautiful and rare, but I’ve thought to give Japan a common name. Honda is a famous japanese surname, nothing to say about it);

USA= George F. Jones (The surname isperfect as it is, I guess. George is for George Washington and F. stays for the same Kennedy’s second name );

UK= Arthur Thompson (I was insecure about his name. At the first time I thought about bames as “Oliver”, because of his popularity and because of Oliver Twist, or “John”. But then I realised that Arthur is good and symbolic as well. So, I’ve changed the surname. Kirkland was pretty anonymous and I wanted something that could have sounded more british);

France= François Bonnefoy (Only transformed Francis, which was the english version of the name, in François, very used and “french”);

Russia= Ivan Vasilyev (Braginski was a polish surname! I’ve chosen something that still sounded like “Braginski”, but at the same time was a real russian surname);

China= Yao Wang (I didn’t found anything to change here);

Spain= Antonio Fernandez García; (Antonio was good, also Fernandez is popular. I’ve only removed Carriedo in order to replace it with García, which is largely used in Spain/countries with a spanish toungue);

Prussia= Gilbert Schmidt (Gilbert was perfect, only changed the family name);

Austria= Roderich Amadeus Wagner (Roderich was ok. I’ve added “Amadeus”, because of Mozart and changed the surname in “Wagner”, still a composer’s name. The combination of this three names gives me some sort of nobility impression);

Hungary= Ágnès Horváth (Totally renamed her. Ágnès is not only cute, but also a bit used, I guess. I found Horváth to be one of the commonest surnames in Hungary);

Canada= Matthew Williams (I don’t see nothing wrong here, maybe it has to be something francophone in there?);

Belarus= Natałlia Arłoŭskaja (Leave it as it was; but changed the way it was written);

Egypt= Muhammad Hassan Al-Nur; (Okay, Muhammad and Hassan are very popular among arabics names, in fact I just leave them to be. But, I found out that Gupta was an Indian surname and also the letter “p” kinda don’t exist in arabic. Soooo I’ve made a list of some cute surname and, at last, Al-Nur won among the others);

Estonia= Eduard Tamm (Tamm is pretty common);

Finland= Timo Hämäläinen (Tino actually wasn’t a finnish name, but TiMo yes. Hämäläinen is rather common and it’s a good alternative to Väinämöinen, that is not a real surname);

Greece= Αlexandros Ypsilanti; (Alexandros is a good, widespread and elegant name. Alexandros Ypsilanti, is also a national hero’s name, during the greek war of indipendence);

Latvia= Raivis Liepa; (Raivis was an actual latvian name, so why don’t keep it? Only the surname changed, Galante was an italian one);

Lithuania= Laurynas Valaitis (I’ve changed everything here, in order to make it realistic, but also to make it sound like “Toris Laurinaitis” as well);

Poland= Feliks Łukasiewicz (It is just normal as it is);

Sealand= Peter Thompson (Only changed his family name);

S.Korea= Kim Yong Soo (Just as it was before);

Sweden= Gustav Lindström (Gustav was the name of many swedish kings. Lindström is commonly used, I think.)

Switzerland= Noah Schweizer (Noah is commonly used in all the cantons, the surname has a german sound);

Turkey= Sadık Adnan (Almost the same. The name is written in turkish)

IF ANYONE HAS ANYTHING TO SAY/ADD/ERASE/CORRECT PLEASE, YOU’RE WELCOME! I’D LOVE YOUR HELP. DISCLAIMER! The post will be updated every time if needed.

Listen to me as I say a story...

Once upon a time, long long ago, Greece was rich and had lots of money, The end. Ps. Sorry.

I gotchu Anon!

~Yandere! Greece headcanons~

~~

-First and foremost, he's a pretty tame Yandere, one of the best Yanderes you can get if you don't want any of your friends or family killed or harmed, yourself hurt or kidnapped.

-He'll mostly just try to lure you away from whoever/whatever is in his way with cute cats and stories about greek mythology.

-telling you that you need time to relax, and who better to relax with cats and him?

-You'll start to get close to him (cuddling and napping together) and this'll lead to you two forming a mutual emotional with one another with how close the two of you are together.

-The two of you will move in together and he'll start trying to keep you house bound (not letting you leave the house because you have to look after all of your cats), and who needs rope to keep you, when he can just have a cat fall asleep in your lap so you can't move.

-He's so subtle with this that you won't even notice how unhealthy your relationship is, and if you don't catch on intime to stop him then yoy probably never will.

-Just the two of you napping away in a blissful slumber surrounded by cats.

Some HETALIA small Doodles =v=)

Why not i should post some Hetalia Content here as well?? Well i randomly select this all qwq so yea-

Here's Heracles. He looks like a painting in some dentist office, but you know what? That's okay. I'm getting better at digital art day by day and I think this is the best I can do so far. If you like Mr. Heracles over here you might want to stick around. I'll probably be drawing more stuff like this. I may or may not take requests, depending on how I feel. I'm really new to both Tumblr and digital art, so please don't get onto me for not being the most professional artist.
