Characterization post!
Nation's name: Rossiyskaya Federatsiya (The Russian Federation. Though in the manga, he is also "The Soviet Union," even though he is always referred to as "Russia")
Capital: Moscow
Language: Russian (though, due to its size, Russia has several languages)
Birthday: December 30th
National flower: Sunflower
Human name: Ivan Braginsky
Height: 182 (tallest of the nations)
Age: Unknown
昔は苛められっ子だった北の巨大国。
A gigantic northern nation that has been tormented ever since childhood.
とにかくなにするにもウォトカ。燃料はウォトカ。南下を狙ってるがことごとくイギリスに邪魔されてるので正直イギリスは殴りたい。
Either way, whatever he does, there is vodka involved. His fuel is vodka. Whenever he wants to invade the south to obtain it, England is always there to get in his way, so truthfully, he wants to punch England.
毎年のように冬将軍が襲ってくるせいか雪が嫌い、しかし戦いとなると冬将軍は一番の味方になってくれるようだ。
Because he is attacked by General Winter pretty much every year, he hates the snow. Yet, whenever there is a war, General Winter becomes his best ally.
性格は一見するとおおらかで田舎っぽい純粋さを持つが、逆に言うと子供のような残酷さを持つ。ロシア史は他の国に比べて陰惨で血の凍るような場面が多い。
At the first impression, he seems to be a pure-hearted country bumpkin, and yet, conversely speaking, he holds a child-like cruelty. Compared to other nations, Russia's history has seen more bloodbaths and tragedies.
So, Ivan hates snow and is prone to terrible mood swings. I also know that he's not above spying, was once in an abusive relationship with Lithuania, and doesn't like Alfred (but he is always civil). If I'm not mistaken, Ivan smiles even when he is angry or annoyed.
Any info, especially on his interactions with other characters, would be appreciated! :)
