Amigos (Friends)

  • Portugal - Best friend. Even if Portugal hates when I call him "Western Spain", he is still one of my closest brothers. He is always calm and relaxed; this must have some connection with the ocean (because he always sails from time to time). He helped me during the civil war and built a zip line that crosses our borders, therefore, we are very close. In addition, we tried to dominate the world together once.
  • Canada - Has been my best friend for centuries. I salute them with poutines. Always welcome to come here!
