HELL YES!
FINALLY SOMEONE WHO DOESNT FORGET PORTUGAL!
ALWAYS TALKING ABOUT ENGLAND AND SPAIN!
AND US?!
WE ARE OLDER THAN ENGLAND AND A LOT OF OTHER EUROPEAN COUNTRIES!
WE WERE POWERFULL!

Sorry, I got overexcited over my country again!
Its just that it makes me mad that people forget us or think of us as part of Spain!

I thought the same! Finally, Portugal!! I'm from Spain, tho! XD
In my highschool we study Portugal and Spain together during determinate periods in History class, then we focus on Spain but Portugal is important too. And during the colonialism we had to learn Portugal's colonies as well as Spain's, England's and France's.
Portugal was very powerful too! Spain and Portugal are too close. The decisions that made one affected the other in many cases!

Oh, i love this so much ! I really like your drawing style, semi realistic isn't it? I think it gaves them an aura that they don't have in the random normal manga style. * v * Especially, your England is just like i imagine him, and not a blushing uke/whatever bishie.
This is a great work, some historical work is good in a fandom who is principally obsessed with yaoi.Β

They all...look...so...serious....(hiding the fact that they are all huge dorks)

I love their positions so much! It feels so dynamic, which is hard to do with groups of standing people Love what you did with Netherlands and Portugal sort of turned away. Also the old map texture in the background works really well!!

Amazing job. Love seeing my country PortugalΒ Β turning hisΒ back and looking away it gives a cool look, almost as hes looking for the future. Awesome job the 5 super power at the time. Nice to see that my country wasnt forgotten (we always are left out in these things in docummentarys, movies, tv series you name it).Β

I think you should have placed france in the middle. You know, catholics for one side, protestants for the other side, and France (influenced by both churchs, and, indeed, between the rest of nations of West Europe) in the center. Is just an opinion, of course.

In spite of that, a great job, congratulations Β (^_^)

Thank you so much for the sweet comment! I wouldn't have thought of putting them that way, so it's nice to read.
My logic was England in the middle since he had the biggest territory. Then I wanted to put Spain and France next to him as the "famous rivals", and play with Portugal and Netherlands turning their backs on them (mostly because Netherlands took so long to reveal his face, and Portugal's is still a mystery so I had to think of a way to hide it in the picture, but also because their colonial history is around the same places.) I really like your reading of it, and it's a good alternative! Thank you!!!
