[The following has been posted very close to another note, so that it's slightly overlapping. The writing at the top mimics the other post.]

To Those Whom It May Concern:

THIS BUILDING AND SURROUNDING LAND HAS NOW BEEN CLAIMED FOR PRUSSIA.

In addition, all non-nations have been granted the honor of Prussian citizenship. Except for Austrians. No objections will be accepted.

You can't just annex everything!

At least the other guys left us our citizenship.

I just did.

You can still be a citizen of your home country, too. Just think of it as honorary citizenship for as long as you're here. You should be more grateful for this opportunity!

But I don't want to be Prussian.

~~But you-~~

It'll eliminate the need for passports or travelling papers.

But you cannot eliminate my spirit.

Prussia is no longer recognised by any country in the world. This doesn't have a shred of legitimacy.

From where I'm sitting, it looks just as legitimate as the other cute little notice: not at all.

At least the UK and Japan are still in existance as Nations. He isn't.

You're making a big assumption that they still exist here.

I felt the presence inside me last night. Millions of people and the pulse of my land in my veins. They still exist.

Does this other guy think the same thing? Just out of curiosity.

He shouldn't. Prussia was essentially abolished long before 1947. We just finished the job that his own government began.

It really doesn't make a difference to me either way. This is some weird shit.

...glad you guys are keeping yourselves entertained. I guess.

Entertained? This isn't about entertainment. It's what we are.

Okay. Let me rephrase. Glad you guys are keeping us entertained.

I'm curious. Do you mean this in a literal sense?

Excuse me, but I believe I technically belong to Sweden at this time.

[There is an arrow drawn in this direction]

Dual citizenship is fine! I'm sure Sweden wouldn't mind, if he were here.

Having grown up around vikings, I somehow doubt that. Traditionally traveling papers haven't been much of a concern either, really.

He won't mind. Really.

Some people were complaining about the passports in that other declaration. Having everyone be a Prussian citizen, even if it's just honorary, makes things easier all around.

As an actual part of Sweden, I posit that I am in more of a position to say whether or not he would object than you.

Historically, we haven't been overly concerned with borders. Unless said borders are flammable.

If he shows up here, you can ask him at that time. Until then, you're mine.

Honorarily.

And borders are really important.

After careful consideration, I have decided not to accept your offer. While talk of modern Sweden has been quite fascinating, until I've met the gentleman I have no recourse but to fall back on tradition.

Prepare to be invaded. Sir, I shall burn your villages, scatter your people to the four winds, and avail myself of any food stores and items that I find convenient.

It wasn't an offer, but I like your spirit.

If you burn this building and scatter the people, I don't think anyone'll mind too much. Raiding at night's a pretty common thing, anyway.

But if it's a fight you want, I'll gladly accept.

Shall it be a blood feud, or would you like me to leave your children alone? I merely wish to be clear on this point.

I don't have children and never will, but I don't think my little brother will even acknowledge a quarrel with a human.

Let's keep it between us. I'll leave your children alone.

Conveniently enough, I haven't any.

Then that makes things rather simple.

We shall see.

'fraid he's all about pacifism and neutrality these days.

Really. That is fascinating.

But even the peaceful may rouse themselves when what belongs to them is threatened, one might think.

You'd think. Still let the bloody Germans run all over him.

That is very sad.

Oh well, nothing for it. Back to basics.

Oh dear. You're really going to hate the present day if Vikings is your main frame of reference for Sweden.

Considering my feelings about fish, drunken carousing, and hacking at things with axes, you might be surprised.

How are you with building bunk beds?

I'm not much for crafting things, but I could do you a lovely set of plans if you'd like.

I'm afraid I'll have to pass unless the bunk beds come encased in a tank.

If I had any idea what a tank was, I'm sure I could come up with something quite witty.

But I could do you one that sets thieves on fire, if that helps.

Prussia-kun, you could have at least left me my areas. You do realize we are allies, don't you?

Of course I do!

I guess I can grant you those areas... Especially the kitchens.

And the music room.

And the Sun Room. I am not asking for much. Simply the rooms that are best left to me - and the one which is named after my namesake.
