"Okay, I think this is all the members we're going to get are here," Britain said. Due to the recent events, the monthly country meeting was now over a zoom call, but hardly any of the 200 countries were in it. Only America, Canda, Japan, and the bigger European countries were there.

"Yeah, this is basically everybody I invited," America said. He was the leader of the zoom call, although the other countries don't exactly know how that happened.

Canada looked at all of the present countries and sighed. "America, don't you think that some input from African, Asian, South American, or Middle Eastern countries would be nice? At least Central American; Mexico's not even here…"

"Wow Canada, you just want to invite the creators of the corona?! Might as well invite China. Besides, Japan is here, and he's Asian. Russia's not here but I invited him too."

"Um, R-Russia isn't…" Canada started, but he saw the looks of the other countries which all basically said 'not worth it'. "N-nevermind."

A silence fell onto the call. To get back on track, Britain cleared his throat. "So, um, Italy, you look better. How's it going?"

Italy had a camera pointed at him from his hospital bed. He gave a weak thumbs up. "It's getting better. I've been alone here as I get to keep all of my pasta. It's done wonders for my body. All of my curves are starting to flatten."

America shoved a hamburger into his mouth. "That's the dream right there."

"I don't think Spain's doing too well though," Italy said.

Attention was drawn into the corner image of Spain being practically dead. America shrugged. "Yeah, he does that. It's just Spanish Flu 2.0 for him, but for me, this is 9/11 all over again, but longer." America shuttered at the thought.

"How is this in any way close to that?" France asked.

"Do you want me to bring out the conspiracy board? I put all of the evidence together, and I can prove how the coronavirus is fake, but I do have it and am going to die, also I'm not saying that it was an inside job, but could another country really be able to hurt me? That was phase 1, we're in phase 2020 now. I'm the only one here truly affected by this, and don't worry, my media won't let you forget it."

Germany muted America. "In more pleasant news, nearly 100,000 germans have recovered. And vith all of this time at home, I've been improving my cooking skills," Germany said.

"Yes, I have some pleasant news as well," Japan said. "The citizens of Japan have likely been using this time to repopulate."

Canada nodded. "In more good news, the pollution is down worldwide, and America hasn't had any school shootings for a long time now."

America cocked multiple guns. "We're saving our ammo for the real threat. Guns are essential here! Equally as essential as GameStop and grocery stores."

"Back to positives," Britain said, "so, Germany, you said you did some cooking? Personally, I have been calling the queen almost every day. Not to make sure she's not dead or anything, I just thought I should just call her more…"

"I've been busy not-dying," Italy said

Spain coughed in agreement.

"I have been watching Boku no pico," Japan said. "It has beautiful animation for the time. Also playing animal crossing."

America was cuddling with his guns. "I chose to play Doom. I've been studying. Preparing."

"I've cut my own hair, and it ended up a little uneven," Canada said.

"Shave it," America said.

"Uh… okay…"

Suddenly, a new member joined the call, but the video only showed a ceiling.

"Who's that?" France asked.

Incoherent Russian curses were coming through a very poor quality microphone.

The countries all groaned. "Russia," Britain said, "tilt the screen."

More Russian yelling was heard, then Russia's camera angle kept tilting down, his screen went black, then Russia left the call.

"He just closed his laptop, didn't he?" Britain mumbled.

Japan nodded. "That does seem to be the case."

America scoffed. "And here I thought Asians were smart…"

The countries all stared at America's square. "Can ve kick America out of future meetings?"

America started crying. "No, please, I'm so lonely."

Suddenly, the call started glitching and a new box appeared. No face was shown, but instead, it said 'China's communist ways have made it recover so fast, and it in no way started this virus'.

America hid underneath the camera's sights and aimed a gun at it. "It's China! Abort the mission! Don't look at my search history! I hate socialism now, I swear!" His screen flashed white, then black, and he left the call.

"America shot another computer," Canada mumbled.

More and more new members joined, all saying how great China is, and how it isn't faking results. "I have heard that Zoom as a website is quite susceptible to hacking," Japan said. "Due to this, many schools have resorted to using google meet."

"Great. Let's meet there next time," Britain said.

"If we survive long enough that is," France added.

Germany sighed and ended his call. Italy and Japan followed next, and eventually, everybody else followed.

Authors note: if you are lost, just know that 2020 was a crazy time that the faster it is forgotten the better. Unfortunately for us, we're living it soooo… Think of this as a historical document that future generations can dissect. They'll have to work hard in order to find the true meaning.

If you are genuinely confused, I suggest reading news from each chapter's month 2020 or PMing me if you really want to know.

To be continued... If we survive that long...
