Oh yeah! I sooo shouldn't be doing this…. But I am!
You've Made War, Not Pasta.
Jack Tanner is a respectable man, just passed 50, brown hair with greying spots, a bit of chin stubble, pale skin and sharp grey eyes that seemed to stare through you. This ladies and gentleman is the new world leader.
His story starts in America. He was born in Chicago in 1985, and in 1988 when he was 3 his family moved to Western Germany. He was there when the Berlin wall fell. He was only 4, and he watched the wall tumble. He doesn't remember much, only that he saw a man, about 5"10, his blonde hair pushed back, and with his blue eyes shining, run to a man with pale skin, white hair and red eyes shouting "BRUDER!"
Jack grew up, an average German boy. He lived in Kaiserslautern. In 2005 he got into the German government. He quickly shot through the ranks, with his charm and wishful thinking. In 2015, at age 30 he become the president of Germany. It was then he met Ludwig, and Gilbert. The personifications of Germany and Prussia, or East and West Germany.
Jack always took their wants into account as he lead their country.
"What is your dream? What do you want out of life?" Jack asked them one day in 2017. Their answer was the same.
"Peace." Every time a country went to war it tore them up on the inside. No country wanted that.
"Alright." And with that Jack had a plan in mind.
In 2021, the merging of Austria and Germany took place. Later that same year, Hungary, Switzerland and Liechtenstein joined them. Thus making the "Germanic Empire"
Other countries were starting to copy them. In 2022 France, Spain, Portugal, and Italy all merged into one, going under as the "Mediterranean Union." In that same year, The United Kingdom annexed Ireland, and Russia, Belarus, Ukraine, and the Baltic states all became the "Soviet Union" Once again.
In early 2023, Japan, China, Mongolia, Korea, Vietnam, Taiwan, Hong Kong, and Thailand became the "United Asian Nations". Later that year Denmark, Norway, Sweden, Finland, Iceland, Belgium and Holland became "Scandinavia". Turkey and Greece plus all the Middle Eastern countries, Egypt and the rest of Eastern Europe became the "Ottoman Empire". North American's countries became "North America" same with South America, and the remainder of Africa. And Australia… Well…. Um…
Australia became part of the "United Asian Nations" In 2025.
In 2029, Jack Tanner signed a treaty with the "Mediterranean Union" and the "United Kingdom" and created the "European Empire", which in 2031 "Scandinavia" and the "Ottoman Empire" joined. One year later in 2032, the "United Asian Nations" and the "Soviet Union" Merged to create the "Asian Empire". In 2033, Tanner demanded a merge between the two empires which was completed later that year under the name "Eurasian Empire". Africa was annexed into the "Eurasian Empire" last year.
Earlier this year, 2036, South America and North America merged to create the "American Union". Today, Jack Tanner is attending a meeting to suggest a merge between the "Eurasian Empire" and the "American Union" and to put him as the leader.
"Do you hear me Ludwig? You, your brother, France, Spain, both Italy's and England are coming to the meeting with me today." Tanner said into his phone. "What do you mean Feliciano shouldn't come? Oh… Right he'd just bounce around doing nothing screaming about pasta… Right… Russia's coming instead then, and Romano can be the only Italy. Right, see you in a bit then." He hung up the phone and walked out of his office.
He walked to the meeting room. He was hosting this event. He opened to the door of the empty room and began to set up. Within the hour the room was full of people.
He took his seat at the head of the table with Ludwig on his right and Gilbert on his left. Next to Gilbert was France, next to France was Spain, next to whom was Romano, then England, and then Russia. On the other side was next to Ludwig was America, next to him was…. An empty chair? Hmm. He was sure there was someone there… Next to the seat was a man named Russell Enrich, the leader of the "American Union" and then he completed the circle by being next to Russia.
"Alright, let's begin. Mr. Enrich, it seems like our two Empires should merge. It would be an ingenious way to end war, for we are the leaders of the only two countries in the world. With this merge we will unite the world." Tanner began.
About 3 hours later, it was agreed. The two empires would be abolished and Jack Tanner would be the President of the world.
"Alright, I believe there is only one last thing to discuss." Tanner began, his eyes flickering to all the country personifications. "You country personifications are now useless. There are no more countries, so there will be no more country personifications. You are all here by sentenced to be terminated, and after words I shall become the personification of the world."
"Terminated?" America asked.
"You're going to kill us?" France asked
"Yes." Jack said. "Tomorrow, and then we shall mark this as a ne-"
"You can't fucking kill us! We're countries! Even if you tried we won't die!" Romano yelled.
"Actually, Romano, if you had read that treaty we all signed, in it you gave up your ability of immortality, in a way. You won't age, but if I shot you, you would die without harming the Italian section." Jack said picking up his things.
"You mother fucker!" Romano yelled
"Russell man, you can't let this happen!" America said frantic.
"I'm sorry Al, my hands are tied. This is what's best for our people." Russell said frowning.
"Señor Tanner you can't do this!" Spain yelled.
"Watch me Spain, Men! Come take these ones and lock them up for tomorrow!" Tanner yelled
"Jack… How could you?" Ludwig asked
"Easily." Jack said.
"Quick!" Prussia yelled as the guards came into the room "Run!"
Russia pulled out his pipe and cracked a few skulls on the way out as they ran. When all 9 of them made it out of the building unharmed.
"Fuck… Alright.. Um… Ok, we need to keep running. Jack's men will be after us."
"Right, we all need to get home, and get everyone out. Grab any weapon you can… Let's meet-" America started, going into "Hero mode"
"At my old house!" Spain said. "It's huge, and only us countries know where it is."
"Yeah but not all 300 of us are going to fit." England said.
"Part of me thinks they already have most of Africa and South America. That's where most of the countries are." Germany said taking off his glasses.
"Right, so let's put the word out and anyone who isn't caught should go to Spain's." America said, and the others nodded in agreement, before going their separate ways.
So there's the prolog. I think it's rushed but eh, the next chapter will be better.
