Five things about Alfred that are hidden

Disclaimer: I neither own Hetalia, nor any of its characters.

This is my first Hetalia fanfiction, and it's only going to be a one-shot, sorry. I haven't really watched all of the episodes, so my knowledge will be a little patchy. I suck at history, so just try your best to understand the yibber-yabber that I have written down. :D

Human names used. Alfred is America, Matthew or Mattie is Canada, Arthur is England, Francis is France (creative name).

Hope you like it!

Five things about Alfred that are hidden

The most obvious one. Alfred is not fat. At all. He does consume a lot of burgers, but really, he needs a lot of calories to sustain his super-strength. Besides, most of his body weight is muscle, anyway.

Another, kind-of well-known fact is that Alfred knows all of the languages, and understands the majority of the other countries' customs. Which means that he can also understand all of the insults that the other countries throw at him in their native language, but he can also understand the praises, although they are few.

Few other countries know this, but Alfred is not dumb. His test scores might be low, and his overall knowledge might be horrible, but he is still very, very smart. Or else how did America manage to win the International Math Olympiad, beating China, Japan, and England, and even more countries?

Only the Americas know this one- before being found by England and France, America and Canada were raised by a mother, named Kaahiik'a. She single-handedly raised America, Canada, Mexico, and even Greenland. She had left to go see Mexico, who had wandered off yet again, when Francis and Arthur had come.

Really, only Alfred and Mattie by accident, know this one. America has depression. Yep, that's right. Cheery, hero-complex America has depression. And it's very severe too. He has cut, burned, and even poisoned himself numerous times. It started from when England left him, and it's still there today. He hates his anti-depressant pills, but Canada makes him eat them. When he doesn't he can be very mad and very scary… the Cold War was one result of that.
