Americest OTL My friend ships that... with a passion xD They do have some things in common but they're pretty different.
I ship USCan hard, but I don't refer to it is "Americest" because I personally don't see any hard evidence that they're blood related. Just because they CALL each other brother doesn't mean they actually are [see Switzerland & Liechtenstein]. So far (as I can tell anyway) it seems that only nations that are one in the same are actually siblings (Prussia/Germany & the Italies being the most notible). There are nations that refer to each other as "brother" (England/America, Norway/Iceland) but I think it's supposed to be a mentor kind of thing.
SO yeah...I don't see Canada and America as (blood) brothers. I've always figured that England declared them brothers (see Vol. 2 of the manga or "Once Canada, Always Canada" webcomic - that has serious inaccuracy problems I'll save for another day) so that Canada would have a "buddy" he could associate with while he integrates himself into the British Empire (after being taken away from France).
XD I'm going to stop because I could rant FOREVER about how they're not actually siblings...
@Misuki: ^_^ We're happy to have you here too (even though, technically, you were here before me)! XD OMG I picked up some "old skool" history books today. I'm rather excited about them.
