Headcanon #1: His keffiyah is his security blanket.
Anubis is his guardian, and his best friend.
Both were given to him by his mother.
Character: Egypt.
In the hot, dry heat of the dessert among the monstrous bodies of the great pyramids, and the sphinx, a young woman just as beautiful as the goddesses told in the stories of the land, sat among the steps leading to the palace. Nestled in her arms was a young child no more than four. His tanned face buried into her breast.
"Gupta, my child, look at me," The woman's voice soothing and sending a feeling of calm over the hustled palace servants scurrying past. Her skin tanned a lightly kissed by the sun and tinged golden, her hair as dark as the midnight sky and straight, a golden collar going around her neck and ending at the start of her breast and a white dress falling to her ankles.
A gorgeous pair of emerald eyes met her own. The child was just as attractive as his mother, dark brown hair cut in straight lines and just slightly touching his shoulders with bangs reaching his eyebrows, and golden skin. "Yes?"
"I have gifts for you," She replied, her left hand rubbing small circles on the small of his back. Gupta looked at her in wonder, that childlike wonderment at the idea of gifts. His mother, for that was what she was, carried him to their shared living quarters.
As soon as the door was opened Gupta's eyes were drawn to a small baby jackal sitting at the foot door. He squirmed in his mothers arm and when she let him down immediately went to its side.
"He is the first part of your present," His mother told him.
Gupta nodded, only half listening, as he petted the jackal.
His mother reached and set his second present onto his head. "My child what shall you name him?"
"Anubis." The soft-spoken nation said confidently.
And that was the last day that the nation of Egypt saw his mother. She disappeared that night in her sleep.
Egypt shot up from his bed, gasping for air. Silent tears rolling down his golden skin; his hand gripping for his keffiyah. Inhaling the scent that after thousands of years had still not faded.
It was of sand, and of the dessert flowers.
It was the smell that was uniquely his mothers.
Anubis, his most trusted companion and his best friend came running in. Leaping onto the bed and curling up against Egypt, and licking his face.
His mother gave him the two most important things in his life. His keffiyah and Anubis. His security blanket and his beloved companion.
And for that he was grateful.
