Personality and Interests 

Christmas Island shares a few personality traits with her 'older brother' Australia. Christmas Island is often quite boisterous and is depicted as a tomboy and does not dislike the odd playfight with her brother.

Christmas Island, also known as Christina Bernice, is quite out-going and loud, much like America but controversially she can be quite shy and timid when meeting new people. She often 'opens up' to those close to her. Christmas Island can also quieten down as to not annoy quieter countries such as Japan. Christmas Island is often open minded about affairs but she always leans towards her brother. Sometimes she is excluded from fights because of her unbiased opinion but sometimes she is included because she can give unbiased opinions towards matters. Christina sometimes describes Australia as her brother and best friend but can get very close to others in a friendly way.

<span style="font-size:10pt;font-family:Helvetica,sans-serif;">Christmas Island can sometimes 'block up/hide' her true feelings because of the way it can affect her image or others, this trait is 'supposed' to mimic the cliffs on the island that were once thought impassable by early explorers and how in 1943 60% of the island's population was evacuated to Surbayan prison camps and only approx. 515 people were left to fend for themselves. She does not know a lot about the Western World because of her isolation for such a long time. She can also be quite generous, which mirrors the numerous phosphate mines on the island.
