I think this is a song by Prince—don't know who he is? Look it up! Anyways, this is a series of Germany/America one-shots (most likely connected). My warnings—OOCness (I'll always have to put that up), human and country names, shounen-ai, etc. *will be added when needed*
Historical Notes
Pearl Harbor: Who here remembers the bombing of Pearl Harbor? Everyone that lives in Oahu, I hope. On December 7, 1941, the Japanese bombed Pearl Harbor, an American base in the Kingdom of Hawaii (remember, Hawaii didn't become a state until August 1959). Remember that this is the reason America joined World War II (besides the fact that they can't stay out of any major wars…)
Hiroshima and Nagasaki: They were the two cities America dropped the atomic bomb on. The first city to be bombed was Hiroshima, with Nagasaki following a week later. After the bombing of Nagasaki, the emperor—whose job is to act as a leader—forced the council to surrender to the Allied Powers. Because of the atomic bombs, people started to get leukemia or other birth defects. Or they died shortly after. Also because of the bomb, people are still dying today (those that had parents/grandparents living there during the bombing).
Concentration Camps: Anyone who knows the Holocaust can remember this, though the Allies also had some. During the second World War, America and Canada locked up all the Japanese in concentration camps. After I believe nearly four decades later, America and Canada tried to repay the Japanese they (wrongfully) put in the camps but by then, it was too late for most.
Holocaust: The most famous event of World War II (in my mind). Without knowing much about World War II, you'd hear of the Holocaust, which was the assassination of Jews, as you were told. It went beyond that—it was the assassination of all non-Aryan races in Europe. Many died from the very horrible conditions, or were killed in the "showers".
Revolutionary War: During the Revolutionary War, the "Hessian" (AKA German mercenaries) were on the side of the British Empire Army thing. (Yeah, I'm too lazy to figure out what the hell I'm saying.) Yeah, they got beaten up by everyone and then you know how the war ends.
Other Notes
I'm actually playing a lot with the what-if questions—especially since America/Alfred F. Jones seems like a daydreamer. That's all I can add for now~! As you see, I can't say as I'll write this as I feel like.
