Country personifications
Justin Morales
Lincoln Hall
Yeah, neat stuff.
Wyatt White

Alexander Johnson
They're very specific usually. Each piece carries a meaning, the sword, the armor they wear, the animals and so on.
Easton King
Britannia best countryfu.
Carter Allen
Thought I had more than just the Germania, guess not.
I believe there was one for each 19th century European country, though I don't know if some have been lost to history.
As I mentioned, they're interesting in that they are both quality art and the huge amount of symbolism each carries.
Interestingly, most are women as well, though a few are men. I wonder if this is where Uncle Sam comes from, our version of these.
Camden Cruz
France has Marianne but her face changes now and then.
William James

Robert Wilson

Lincoln Sanchez
She normally has at least one breast exposed too, while waving the French flag, right?
Jeremiah Taylor
Why are they always chicks with weapons?
Jackson Ramirez

William Hernandez

Then why did we abandon Hong Kong?

I like to think of it as the opening stages to a vaguely incestuous orgy.

Nathan Taylor
Of course France would have her tits waving around
Leo Robinson
The personification of Denmark is a big guy.
Hope statues count.
Liam Collins
It's a valid question really. The weapons are usually symbolic somehow, Britannia has the trident due to it's ties to sea warfare, Germania wields the sword (and crown) of the Holy Roman Emperor, for example.
Why they are women? Probably because they are romanticized and some kind of chivalrous romance to it.
These were made in the late 1800, early 1900's and it was a time of romance and nationalism and empire.
Jonathan Mitchell
Because people want to defend women and weaponry implies power.
Waifufaggotry is a key component of patriotism and propaganda.
Justin Morgan
Does this count?
Dominic Gray
I think that's supposed to be "Liberty" personified, not France itself.
Joseph Diaz
>Britain conquered the world to be pussy worshiped by cute girls
Makes as much sense as anything else desu

Carter Hall
Well, this thread just drove me further to hating the world. Oh well.
Eli Morris
Confirmed for Endgegner
Connor Davis
These are awesome. Who does these?
Camden Wilson
Is there one for America? Uncle Sam doesn't count since he was just a war propaganda poster mascot.
Brayden Howard
Are their any examples of industrial-era, romanticist fantasy in fiction?
It seems like such a good premise for a setting that I can't believe it's never been done. All the industrial revolution fantasy I can think off is steampunk stuff that's obsessed with exaggerating tech and playing up the dirtiness of the era, rather than overly grand, pompous aesthetics which were idealized at the time.
Just imagine a Crimean-era war, with both sides dressed immaculately in their strongly colored uniforms, when two titanic goddesses rise over the battlefield, cannonballs bouncing off of their robes, slicing through the enemy lines and bee-lining for each other to engage in colossal, single combat.
Bentley Sanders
America does have a female personification, Columbia.
Blake Wright
>not forming an empire for yuri
Asher Edwards
russia stronk
Carter Ward
I vaguely remember the Keys to the Kingdom book series being kind of close to that but it's been years since I read it.
Austin Ward
>everybody else looks heroic and dignified as fuck
>Belgium is naked and falling over and crying and her weapon is even broken
Belgica confirmed for the ditzy, fuck-up girl
Atleast she isn't constantly raped and murdered, like Polonia
Gabriel Campbell
Here is a cartoon of Columbia spanking Stephen A. Douglas for his role in drafting the Kansas-Nebraska Act as Uncle Sam looks on approvingly.
Alexander Morris
So, is the implication here Germania being the enemy for not bending the knee?
Luis Cook
>Belgium got steamrolled by Germany in BOTH World Wars before knowing what was going on
Ditz confirmed, Germania needs to stop bullying Belgica too.
Also works in the sense that during that time Belgium was known for being the premier manufacture of knock off and cheaper firearms in Europe. Next to Spain, of course.
Eli Jones
I want to call YOU all faggots for not posting the personification of greatest country in the world
Jayden Ward
>Why they are women? Probably because they are romanticized and some kind of chivalrous romance to it.
It's more likely the common habit is to refer to familiar, nonliving things as female. The Earth (though that stems mostly from Gaia, but even there), Countries, Cars, etc. Probably because of how they mother things.
Ian Gray
brother can you spare a dime?
Grayson Butler
He's not even a cute girl and he just copied his most famous moment from Lord Kitchener.
Joseph Ramirez
>Nike
That's an American company. Use Reebok.
Ethan Morales
It's based off of the last World Cup. England play in Nike strips.
Bentley Long

Carson Morgan
>romance
you fucking retard. Jesus christ how do they let shit like you out of school? Women are symbol of familly and thus unity, and also fertility thus abundance. Fucking underaged shitstain I swear.
Andrew Ramirez
>Atleast she isn't constantly raped and murdered, like Polonia
That's true.
Here's Polonia just before being raped.
Carson Smith
Here is Polonia dying.
Lincoln James
And here is Polonia being trampled to death by a horse.
She's like the Kenny McCormack of national symbols.
Carson Lopez
Not him but it's obvious from the context he means romance as in romanticism, which would be accurate in this sense, you fucking retard.
Xavier Roberts
This sounds like a really strange high school drama.

>Britannia
she makes a cameo in this comic
John Mitchell
Looks like a tranny
Gabriel White
>Britannia considering her relationship the Europeans
How will she choose?
Leo Parker
She's sick of going out to the pub every night with her EU friends and having to pay for Polonia's round because she's a poor skank.
Juan Mitchell

Levi Diaz
That is the coolest personification of america ever.
Gavin Robinson
>Argentina
>White
Owen Brooks
Some yuri action between Italia and Germania.
Benjamin Gutierrez
Polonia always has no money because Polonia always drinks
Polonia always drinks because Polonia is always depressed
Polonia is always depressed because Polonia is always being either raped or murdered
Give the poor girl a break
Chase Watson
No, that's definitely Marianne. You can tell by the hat.

Nicholas Young
Delacroix gave to Liberty the face of Marianne, but it's Liberty. Marianne became a symbol for France but soon enough she became a universal symbol of liberty, because liberty is universal. Also because during the second empire in France, some french people saw the USA as a beacon of hope that liberty would come back in France one day.
> the statue of Liberty was originally designed to wear her hat instead of the crown
Jose Clark
Because the nation is the mother.

Not gonna lie, I don't think this country-tan thing is going to catch on. You have some great drawfriends but the subject matter is just to depressing.

Why do they make them weak ass woman anyway? Sounds like subversion to me.
