Description
Do you ever have those wonderful moments when your head-canon turns out to be canon? I HAD ONE OF THOSE MOMENTS!
In my mind, every time Hong Kong does anything wrong, China blames England, since England raised Hong Kong for over 150 years! XD AND IT HAPPENED IN THE ACTUAL HETALIA COMIC! OH MY INFINITE HAPPINESS! I was punching the table with joy! SO MUCH GLEE! It turns out Hong Kong used to be a well-behaved, hard working little kid who had the same cute appearance as China (even the ponytail! 
), but somehow under England's care, things... changed. XDDD MY HAPPINESS KNOWS NO BOUNDS.

I wonder what China thought when he first saw that Hong Kong had cut his hair short? ;A;

Yeah same here. He probably thought he would look too much like China. Maybe England said so to embarrass him and that's how it happened. After all.. Hong Kong was cursed to have the very same eyebrows too. Ooh the horror and sadness.

HK shouldn’t be part of People’s republic of China. Hong Konger need to fight against goddamn communist as*holes from mainland with own blood and bone to reunify with Great Britain. I don’t wanna see Hong Kong loses their own unique identity, culture and aspects in all seriousness . I’ve been to Hk last year to refuel the airplane when I was on the way to Malaysia for studying English. The experience there was really amazing. People weren’t shy towards foreigners like me and all stuff are free unlike the mainland.
I didn’t need to use VPN with high cost, no need to worry about safety of food, most people was able to understand English. Most services were really high level as I can satisfy as Japanese too. I knew why many Hong Kongers shows negative feeling when non-Chinese people say “U from China and u speak Chinese.” thanks for this experience.
I consider it’s true Hong Kong some disadvantages like expensive estate price as insane, however living in Hong Kong and traveling there has more advantages for foreigners.
First of all, we don’t need to speak Mandarin.
In mainland, Mandarin is only one common language basically and foreign tourists always have language troubles. Even at the airport, we have to learn some basic Mandarin to deal with it. In Hong Kong at least in Hong Kong Island, airport, Tsim Sha Tsui, hotel and guest houses, we can use English. In local restaurants, local area such as New territory, Mong Kog and Yaumati, only Cantonese available. But even the severs can’t speak English, they always looked for other customers who can speak basic English and they willing to help foreign tourists.
Secondly, we can use all social media. In mainland, because of great firewall we can use only Weibo and WeChat. If we wanna use social media like FB and Twitter, we have to use VPN with crazy price. Besides, Chinese communist party already announced all VPN is gonna be censored. This means Chinese can’t access the world. This is fu*kin sucks right?
Thirdly, Hk is much safer than the mainland. U know in mainland, we always have to keep a good eye on our luggage, cellphone and any own personal stuff. In HK, not so much.
The greatest last reason is neutral or not. Hong Kongers doesn’t have negative image about foreigners except mainlanders basically. Some Chinese are really racists.
Sorry for such a long comment. Things what I wanna say is HK IS NOT CHINA. 香港唔係中國!!

Seriously, how can you call mainland Chinese racists while at the same time calling them "goddamn communist as*holes"? Maybe look in the mirror first before calling anyone else racist. Besides, I lived in mainland China for 2 years, and no one was ever racist towards me during that time. In fact, I made wonderful friends there. I've also spent a week in Hong Kong, and enjoyed my time there too. Yes, Hong Kong should protect their identity, freedom and dignity, but treating mainland Chinese citizens like dirt doesn't help anyone. Mainland Chinese people deserve to be treated with the same respect as any other people. If you want to hate the PRC government, then sure, do what ever you want. But leave the Chinese people out of it. They are just ordinary people trying to live their lives, same as you or me.
And lastly, this is just fan art from the anime Hetalia. It is not meant to be some kind of political art. So please don't make comments about politics here.

I think England made Hong Kong and America rebellious, save for Seychelles, Canada, Australia, and New Zealand. Correct me if I'm wrong.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
It could also be their personalities too. With Canada, Seychelles, Australia and New Zealand, they didn't have as major of a mixed culture. Like Canada and Seychelles were originally raised by France, who does have more in common with England than he admits. Australia was originally raised by Wales, and New Zealand has always been with Australia. So, these countries aren't as big of clashers. Now, America and Hong Kong are a different story. For one, America also has alot of influence from France, Spain, the Nordics, Russia and so on as a small colony. While Canada was part of New England, he had more French and English in him without any other influences. Being raised under French and English influence, he was raised to know that he has to abide by the king and not ask questions if he's being slightly mistreated (inferences on "slightly"). America was raised in a very similar fashion, but if you look back, he was also influenced by the Nordics, and it's hinted that he could've been raised in Newfoundland when he was human, which would make a ton of sense why he was so strong on independence. If America was born in Newfoundland, that would mean his human family were vikings, and vikings and English don't mix well, even if you compare vikings to pirates. The difference is that pirates do have a set of regulations or codes they abide by, while vikings do not. Vikings were more along the lines of "do your own thing or die trying" sound familiar? "Give me liberty or give me death."
While England has been fighting for independence before it was cool, he is still more loyal than America. If my theory is correct about England possibly being King Arthur, then it also shows his experience in ruling a kingdom. England knows about ruling an entire country and having to be head over a country persona (my guess is that, if he was King Arthur, the country persona of that time would've been his mother Britannia for a while). England is loyal to his boss, because as a previous king, he knows that a country cannot rule on its own without some kind of government system with a head leader. If there were multiple leaders, then the people would not know who to turn to and probably take advantage of it. If there is one leader, then it's easier for the people to know who to turn to for help and it prevents a possible civil war. At the same time, he also has learned that even a king needs some help, since he is still human. How England looks at it is that every person, including a king, needs a boss to make sure he's not putting the kingdom to bankruptcy, being why there is parliament. If a king goes against parliament, England looks at it like the king is being rebellious and is not fit to rule. Just like England has experience with being king, he also has experience with being under someone else wiser than him, aka Merlin. Even after being king, it is shown that King Arthur was still under Merlin. England sees a rebellious king being one that will not listen to those wiser than him, aka the parliament. That's where you get the difference between England's fight for liberty and America's fight for liberty. England fought for liberty, because he does not tolerate rebellion and his bosses were being rebellious in his mind, while America fought for independence, because he does not tolerate being treated like an underling.
What England deals with against America's independence is beyond his understanding, being that England has always been his own country and never under the guidance of another. True, England was under someone as a human, but not as a country, and they are completely different situations. England had to learn the hard way that no country likes to be forced to do something they don't want to do. The more you think about it, England as a whole did have to learn that the hard way, and not just with us. Now, because of our Revolutionary War against them, the UK not only is beginning to cool off, but also letting others like Scotland choose whether or not to become independent. I saw an article that I believe a few weeks ago, Scotland made a vote to be independent or not and voted against being independent, which I thought was interesting.

Boy, England sure does have a long way to go. And by that, I mean acknowledge the fact the America want to be independent.
By the way, England isn't really England. He's actually Britain. England is just part of Great Britain. Now, as for Britain on the other hand, it is made up of England, Wales, and Scotland. It's just an error made by Himaruya, believe it or not. Here's something to read elizabethcatherine04.deviantar…

In Hetalia, England is both. Kinda like how Italy represents North and the entire country of Italy, and Germany represents the West and entire country of Germany. Now, it is possible England started off as... well England, but gained the title Britain to represent himself and his brothers. Now, the Japanese version actually does call England... England, not Britain. It's the English dub that uses the name Britain as a request from the Japanese Studio Tokyopop. So, Himaruya never made any error at all. If you read the manga, England's always named "England" not Britain. His character bio clarifies that England also represents Great Britain as well, but is called England. So yeah, it's not that England isn't really England, he is "England," but isn't really Britain. It's the other way around.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Yeah, but there's another oc out there named england and she is different from the other britain.
The english dub also thinks that england is incorrect for the character.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Ah, I see. Though, England is the representation of England and Great Britain. Even in the English dub, England is called "England" from time to time. He's just often called Britain, since that is his title. The main hint is that England acts more like the people of England, instead of Britain as a whole. You never see scots, North Irish, or Welsh stereotype from this guy. Even the fact he hates Scotsmen is something more along the lines of English stereotype. Though, what really puts the icing on the cake is the manga The Fight For America. Here's why. Great Britain didn't make New England a colony, it was ENGLAND that created the New England colonies. We Americans call ourselves former ENGLISH colonies, not British. There's a difference. If England was the one that found America, raised America, and fought France FOR America, he's ENGLAND, not Britain. Scotland didn't want anything to do with America, Wales set up his own colony in Australia, and Ireland didn't have anything to do with America either. It was ENGLAND that set up the New England colonies, it was ENGLAND that claimed America as its first colonies, it was ENGLAND that established America and Canada as New ENGLAND colonies, it was England that America belonged to. And, if you don't believe me, you can look up the flag of New England, it has St. George's flag stamped onto it, not the Union Jack.
As for the English dub, again it only called England Britain as a request from the Japanese Studios. Despite that, the dubbing company knows that England represents BOTH England and Britain. Personally, I think this person that created the England OC should've done a Britain OC instead, because England represents more of the stereotype of ENGLAND and not Britain as a whole. The reason he's in charge of the entire Great Britain, is because that's what many people think of the British when they think of Great Britain. Even with America, he's more of a representation of the North Eastern part of America, not the entire country.

Mybe he didn't want to get close to him after what happened between him and America. I think that England is a good parent anyway. ^^ He's just afraid of being hurt. Good and interesting picture! I love it! <3
