Bavaria II

Servus Schottland,

great! Ja, ask your brothers, too. The more we are, the better.

Sure, the same goes for me. Prussia beat me and forced me to join the German

Empire in 1871. But I never gave up dreaming of my independence. I also

planned to leave Germany after the Wars, but unfortunately I didn't stand a

chance against Ludwig and the Allies when they discovered my secret plans.

Well, I don't know England that well, I have to admit. It's been a long

time since I've been allowed to attend world meetings, so I hardly ever see

the other countries nowadays. I only remember that he was always fighting with

France. Germany is alright most of the time, but he's way too bossy and

strict. I HATE being ordered around! I am the proud free state of Bavaria, and

not Germany's little lapdog… or cash cow.

What, you hang out with Prussia? Himmel! In my opinion the Saupreiss is the

personification of a ruined party. He doesn't have the least bit of

Gemütlichkeit, that's why he's forbidden to show up at the Oktoberfest.

But I get along well with France, too. I was allied to him several times in

history. Say hi to him for me when you meet him next Friday.

Good question! Quebec wanted to take care of the dinner, but we haven't

spoken about the beverages yet. We have plenty of beer of course (I am the

world's most famous beer brewer after all), but I guess a good Whiskey

can't hurt. I don't have any cigars though, since I am a very strict

non-smoking country. But you can bring some if you promise to smoke them

outside.

Pfiadi, Bavaria


Dear Bavaria,

Ah juist asked thaim 'n' baith north Ireland 'n' Wales said thay wull jyne th' group if ah go.

Ah awready knew that ye wur taken ower by Prussia 'n' then passed oan tae Germany whin Prussia lost his nation. It kinda seems wrong tae bygae ye aroond lik' ye'r a toy or something.

Even if ye dinnae attend meetings doesn't mean ye cannae git tae ken nations in mah een. A've gotten close wi' th' Nordics ower time o' juist popping up uninvited. Nae juist wi' France wi' me tae. France 'n' ah used tae huv an alliance that meant ilka time France attacked Englain ah did tae sae he hud tae rammy us baith aff. France 'n' Englain huv a loue hate kinship juist lik' Englain haes wi' America. Be happy ye aye huv yer ain dialect Bavaria. Englain teuk awa' mah land's language. Nae even yin percent even mind th' language.

Ah ainlie hing oot wi' him fur France likes tae git us tae huv a swallyin contest 'n' France kens he wull lose sae he haes tae bring in someone wha kin challenge me. That seems harsh nae tae let him gang tae Oktoberfest. A've ne'er bin tae yin bit it aye sounded interesting. Ah will tell him ye said guid day whin ah batter him oan Friday.

Weel remind Quebec whit happens whin ah dinnae huv a least yin gless o' whiskey th' entire nicht. If yi'll waant me tae bring mah ain whiskey tell me sae ah kin mak' sure tae bring enough. Urr ye shitting me? ah cannae smoke at a' ben? amurnay gaun then! ye'r telling a chain smoker that thay kin ainlie smoke ootdoors. Ah wid ne'er be ben ither than tae git myself something tae sloch or dram!

Sincerely,

Scotland

P.S. Dinnae say Himmel aroond Wales. He wull think ye'r taking aboot me sin mah human name is Hamish 'n' he wull think tis a nickname fur me sin he loues nicknames. Ye'll ainlie ever hear Englain ca' me Hamish though th' rest o' thaim forordinar ca' me Hammy.

((I love how it looks and sounds so I can't help but enjoy writing like this. I'm trying to remember putting little translations at the bottom but sometimes I forget to put them so if you can't figure out what I wrote tell me and I'll translate it.

rammy = to fight yin = one swallyin contest = a drinking contest batter = punch

a' ben = inside sloch or dram = eat or drink))
