A/N: So I wanted to write something for Thanksgiving and this is what came out! I might write an actual story some other time though, I'm not sure. Also, sorry I haven't been writing as much lately; school started and I've only just begun writing again. I actually have several stories I might post soon. Anyway, enjoy!
Disclaimer: I do not own Hetalia. Or America.
50 Things America is Thankful For
Hamburgers and French fries
Being free
England. Even when he's being a prick.
France. Even when he's trying to rape me. Actually, not so much when he's trying to rape me.
Russia. Even if he's a stupid commie-or at least acts like one.
Canada. Because everyone needs a sweet, invisible little brother.
The Midwest states, because they make up my belly
The Northeastern states because most of them used to be my colonies
The Western states because they attract tourists and they make up one of my arms*
The Southern states because they're loud and they give me a border with Mexico
Alaska because everyone needs an antisocial, Russian kid
Hawaii because he's the youngest and he acts just like me
My awesome presidents, even the ones that weren't exactly awesome
Coffee
All cars manufactured here because they're awesome
Love. Even if I always screw it up
The Revolution. Even though it makes Iggy cry.
The Fourth of July
Fireworks. Especially those on the Fourth of July
The Statue of Liberty. Even if France was the one who gave it to me.
All the monuments in D.C. They make me look awesome on postcards.
Action movies. Especially when they're filmed here.
Horror movies. They're most awesome when they scare the crap out of me.
Germany because he made me look like a hero after the war.
Italy because he makes awesome pasta
Prussia because he gives me someone to fight about awesomeness with
Spain because he gave me his babies. All of his babies. **
Japan because he makes awesome video games. And cars. But mostly video games.
China because he wasn't a complete douche to me when I opened trade with him
Switzerland because who else am I supposed to reenact a gun battle with? Never mind if he actually shoots at me.
Ukraine. I like staring at her "large amount of land" sometimes. ***
Belarus because it's funny to watch Russia run away from her
Hungary because she scares Prussia and allows me to win the argument about awesomeness.
Cuba because he's like my other little brother
Freedom of religion
Freedom of speech, even if it isn't always positive about me
Racial equality because at least we're trying
The six states where gay marriage is legal (New York, Iowa, New Hampshire, Connecticut, Massachusetts, and Vermont) because they're an example for the rest of the states
The beach because it's awesome
Kentucky Fried Chicken. It's awesome.
Soda. Anything with carbonation is amazing.
Hot dogs. Because sometimes I don't want a hamburger
Healthcare. Even if Canada won't stop bragging about how his is free
Cell phones. Without them, I wouldn't be able to bother Iggy when I can't sleep
Computers and the Internet. I have no words for how amazing they are.
Candy
Music and iPods
Reading. Sometimes. Only really good books.
Rainbows. They're amazing.
Myself. I'm a hero.
*I couldn't decide what arm the Western states would be, so I decided not to be specific
**California, Florida, etc. were Spain's-even if Mexico owned them later-as well as the Philippines, Cuba, and everything America gained after the Spanish-American war.
***If anyone isn't familiar with Ukraine, her "large amounts of land" are symbolized in her breasts. So…yeah. XD
I hope you guys enjoyed! Review please! :D
