Alzati, Italia, il unificato! Abbiate fede in Dio, che è il nostro unico salvatore, colui che ci salverà e abbandonare i nostri nemici nelle profondità dell inferno.

Repubblica Italiana, Nord Italia, Il Settentrione d'Italia.
Name:
Veneciano Vargas.

20.
Hair Color:
Copper-brown.
Eye Color:
Chocolate-brown.
Height:
5'6.
Weight:
185 lbs.
Appearance:
Veneciano's appearance, to begin with, is very immature looking and childish. One would not think of him to be twenty years old; they would think him much younger than that. He does not have a muscular or an athletic build, and looks quite wimpy and weak. Honestly, it's not that far from the truth -- the Italian looks like he would be knocked over with one whoosh of air. He has short, copper-coloured hair with a questionable curl at the left side of his head, which acts as an erogenous zone. It should not be pulled, tugged on, or rubbed under any circumstances; if it is, however, then Veneciano will burst out into quiet whimpers and gain a very red blush.
His eyes are perhaps a lighter shade of his hair, a chocolate-amber, which are quite pretty; yet, his eyes are almost always squeezed shut, so it's kind of hard to see. Even if when the eyes are open, they only give off more of an innocent and a soft stare; nothing about him is truly intimidating. The chocolate-brown hues are complemented by long, exotic lashes, which in turn, adds onto his femininity.
Veneciano has a fair skin-tone, and stands at an average height for a male, 172 centimetres. To be truthful, he doesn't really care about his appearance; maybe that's why he wears loose and ordinary clothing, rather than bright and colourful suits and such. On normal days, he just pulls on a blue uniform with a black-coloured shirt and tie, complete with brown or black boots. He also has a white flag, in which he carries almost anywhere and everywhere. Often when he does not feel like wearing the same old uniform all the time, he dresses in a white sailor suit-style top, with blue shorts.

Personality:
Eccentric, cheerful, and happy, Veneciano really doesn't seem like anyone who would intimidate anyone else, even a small thing like an cat or a dog. He's quite bubbly, but is quite irresponsible and a big crybaby, bursting out into unfathomable, random tears that might shock anyone nearby. Even though he's past his child and teenage years, he acts very immature and childish sometimes, and can be seen a little bit selfish, too, if one squints. Mainly, he is very optimistic and looks on the bright side, which can be, depending on the topic, a blessing and a curse. Although he comes across as meek and kind, he really dislikes getting a 'no' for an answer; he'd like to get the thing he asked for, truthfully.
Aside from that, however, Veneciano is very sociable and will talk to everyone, happily. It should be noted that he does like attention, and loves to be praised -- yet, he doesn't do much that he would be praised on, though. When he was young, he relied on many others, and even now, sadly, he hasn't grown out of that habit. All his plans, if he actually does have one, is to ask other people for help, and to gain their additional support. It would seem like he really can't do things on his own; and it's actually true. Veneciano is a coward, and becomes scared and intimidated all too much easily. He's always lazy and slow, and hates confrontations, whether it be physical or mental. Being never good in training or sports, it's obvious why he dislikes physical confrontations. As for mental, he's scared of everything relating to it, such as being dominated, or toyed with in his brain. To him, it's the worst situation possible -- right next to having no food, of course.
The Italian loves food, and adores all Italian food, really. He holds great fondness for pasta -- all shapes and kind, pizza topped with lots of cheese, and the best dessert, gelato. Frequently, he overdoses on gelato too much, and gets stomach pains and aches often. Since he loves food so much, it's not a wonder why he's a picky eater; even when hungry, he will go to fill his stomach with something filling and delicious with an Italian touch, instead of something easy. Another one of his favourites is art and paintings, mainly because of the Renaissance. Veneciano had been naturally skilled at painting and drawing ever since young, and it's been a great thing to keep him occupied. He loves to look at other's paintings too, and if needed, give kind criticisms on which the colour is maybe a bit off and need a different tint, or how the brush strokes were made too hasty. Even when giving criticisms or comments, he's not that cruel or mean in saying this, being kind by nature.
Following on his hobbies, they include singing, painting, cooking, and holding siestas. It should also be known that he, during siestas, takes off all his clothes. Afterwards, he usually forgets to put his pants back on, and doesn't seem like he's very embarrassed about it, truthfully. To him, it's nothing big -- and besides, it's more comfortable without them anyway! However, his public show of skin could become notorious; it's not only just a shirt off or such, but all articles of clothing, [save for his boxers, of course, or maybe not -]off. Topping this all off, Veneciano doesn't really know the importance of personal space. In fact, it's not even in his dizionario. He will cling, hug, or invade any personal space there is; however, he means nothing mean or holds no ill meaning with it; it's just his way of greeting.
Veneciano can come off as annoying and boisterous, but it's who he is; what makes him different from the others. He has a rather interesting verbal tic, "Ve', that he adds on, either to the beginning of the sentence or the very end. It can be pretty annoying at first, but it won't be that bad when you get used to it. Overall, Veneciano might seem irritating and a wimp who cowers and is no help, but if dug down deeper, the truth is that: He's really not that powerful, and he's kind of worried about it, himself. It's a big world out there, and Veneciano is aware of that factor. He's also aware that he's not good in planning, strategy, or even defence; it follows his Boss, and trusts in him -- way too much. Anyone and everyone, he wishes to acknowledge as a friend, and is far too trustworthy; that could easily be his downfall.

Secrets:
♦
Veneciano has mixed thoughts on Mussolini as a leader. Pros and Cons are on his mind; Mussolini did cause lots of pain and hurt to some, yet he improved lives, too. Of all he knew, his leader sounded a bit of a Dictator, and Veneciano was worried about that. Those who opposed Mussolini found themselves facing the Black Shirts and punishments, but the ones who stood by him loyally, was awarded with peace and no deaths in their famiglia.
♦
While North Italy does charm girls with his cute face, he's actually kind of clueless of what to do after he charms them. Believe it or not, Veneciano is still immature, and in the romance-department, he's extremely inexperienced.
♦
He sometimes daydreams about what he would become in the future, and settles on the job of becoming a good housekeeper. He can clean, cook, and can do household tasks, so why not?

x Compassion/Love
- North Italy wants to have everyone and anyone as his Ally and amico, and doesn't fully understand that that's pretty much impossibile.
(((Le Pagine Della Storia )))
History:
Giuseppe Garibaldi was the one who found the current Italian kingdom in 1861, but the real Italian roots flow back a long time ago to an rather unknown tribe of people, the Etruscans. These relatives of the Mesopotamians conquered most of Tuscany and Campania, while Rome was growing -- both militarily and agriculturally. For hundreds of years, they ruled over Rome and the nearby, outlying areas, until the subjects revolted, aided by the Greeks, Sicilians, and the Gauls. As the Etruscan power fell, the Roman Republic arose, acquiring vast power and land. One by one, the Roman Republic conquered their rivals; this lead to them controlling almost all of the Mediterranean.
From 27 B.C. to A.D. 14, over 40 years, Italy found himself with a charismatic and powerful leader, none other than Augustus Caesar. By this time, the entire Western World was focused on the city of Rome, full of marble and brick expenses. Any political, commercial, or cultural events were held here, inside the walls.
