Hahaha, no, it's not a chapter. Sorry to waste a chapter like this.
This is a reply to one of my reviews. Unfortunately, I can't reply back to the person because they conveniently didn't sign their review, thereby making it impossible for me to reply back. I tried searching up their name, but I didn't get anything either. So this was the only way for me to reply back.
I'm going to delete this chapter, so it won't take up space… eventually… At least once the person replies back, I'll toss this away. But hopefully, it will also make things clear to the other readers.

Firstly, America, in a sense, has amnesia. He doesn't remember anything and has reverted back to his child-like state of mine. The difference between what happened and regular amnesia is that he also became a child. Otherwise, everything is completely fine. The past America is still in the past, and the current America is the nation!America. However, he just temporarily lost all his powers. The reason I keep referring to him as a colony is because he IS the nation, but he's not currently in charge of his own country as of now. Therefore, he is colony!America, not child!America or nation!America.
Plus, I didn't mention it, but currently, England is taking care of all the policies in America (with his boss's permission of course). The whole incident has been hushed up, but of course, there are still a lot of people who are curious (cough, tabloids and paparazzi, cough). However, so far, everything has managed to be kept quiet.
Secondly, the countries are interested in raising America under their care in order to possibly turn him over to their side. Once he goes back to his normal state, he will regain all his memories and won't forget any of his memory from when he reverted back to a colony. Therefore, they are hoping that if they have a strong enough grip on America at this stage, they can possibly turn America into one of their territories or allies (which is just a nice way of saying subordinate). Since this isn't a time paradox, nothing in the future has been affected. However, I have been dropping hints that America has been starting to become his old self (see chapter 2). It may seem like a time-paradox, but it isn't
You know how in the movies and books, someone travels to the past/future in order to change something but it drastically changes their future? However, in reality, all the events of the past have been taken into account which is why nothing in the future will change. I know it may seem like that with colony!America, but the reality is that it is just him making a slow recovery back to his nation-self. Once he regains his mind and memories, his form will go back to normal.
Blegh, I hope that answers your question.
