Ah, my childhood... I can't believe it's been so long. I was a delightful little lad, was I not?
And here young Switzerland joins me in my studies. I cannot recall what he saying to me here, but I'm sure his contribution was helpful.
He really was a dear friend to me, and a great support. Perhaps I should invite him over for coffee again sometime....
Were we not endearing? I must go and see if I still have that charming little frock.
I really should invite Switzerland to some coffee and cake.
Oh, really now, he just couldn't stand still long enough for a decent picture!
My lovely wife, Elizaveta, enchanting as ever.
Oh! Ahaha, this must be from our courting days! Ah, this was but the beginning of a beautiful relationship.
I was simply captivated by her elegance and grace.
So courteous and refined, I couldn't have asked for a better wife.
Sweet marital bliss.
Do not be mistaken, she is a most commendable opponent on the battlefield!
My wife and I with young Italy, taken sometime in autumn I believe.
Grmph. Prussia disrupting the harmony, as usual.
Ah, here I am with France. I don't know why he was unsatisfied with this picture, I think it turned out rather nice.
Oh! Here I am with Spain. I don't remember this in particular, but I suppose we did both house the Italy brothers and got along fairly well at that time.
Yes, I did attempt to teach him the symphonies. I'm not sure to what extent this was successful.
Ah! Young Italy... this does bring back fond memories. Although, he was not suited to be a maid. He did quite a poor job.
And here he is with the Holy Roman Empire. I wonder if he was as surprised as I to find out Italy was in fact male?
A photo of Germany, Italy and Japan in a moment of happiness during that gruesome war.
Germany and I embracing in friendship.
Here I am with homemade Plätzchen, which were not intended for Prussia's consumption.
My birthday, during the time when I lived in Germany's house. The cake was also not intended for that cretin Prussia, but he simply had to spoil my day.
Again, Prussia being his unpleasant self.
...
I suppose this was taken during the Oktoberfest? I cannot recall...
...
Wh- huh, I don't remember this one either...
*peeks ahead at next photos in album*
...
Excuse me, but I have to go speak with my wife. Perhaps we can continue this later?
Auf Wiedersehen!
