Personality and Interests
Like her triplet, Dela is open-minded, friendly and independent. She's also creative and energetic, usually pulling her siblings to do stuff with her. She's also very stubborn. She's more laid-back than Del, but still strict. She has a short temper and yells a lot at people, sometimes, yelling in Swedish, Finnish or Dutch. Unlike North, she's easily scared during scary situations, but doesn't get stressed as easily as North. Dela loves to have company and usually visits her neighbors regularly, always bringing a treat or a gift from her state. She loves debating and does it with just about everyone.

She loves tourists and usually talks to them constantly. She would be upset if tourists stopped visiting her. She has a fear of being forgotten and visits her siblings because of it. She loves to explore haunted places and North usually does the research for it. Dela is not a picky eater and will eat just about everything. Her favorite foods are crabs and strawberry pie. She also hates being ignored by people.

Dela cherishes the drawings North makes and keeps them in her house, hanging on the walls. Like North, she is competitive about small things and makes them a big deal, which can annoy some people. She has an interest in diamonds and she's protective of her siblings, younger or older. Dela loves to comfort people, knowing how to cheer them up. Dela also loves to tell people that she and North were the first state to enter the Union to grab attention, usually it fades quickly. She's usually on her farm with her chickens. Even though, Bethany is North's chicken, South treats Beth as her own. She also has a pet chihuahua she named Christiana.

North Delaware (Evan D. Watson)
North is South's triplet. They have a pretty good relationship with each other. They hate being mistaken for each other, South usually yelling at the person who confused them. They usually confide in each other, however, South loves to talk to Mary more than North as she has to do most of the talking. They usually go ghost hunting with Mary and Alfred.

Maryland (Lisa M. Wilson)
Maryland is Dela's other triplet. Maryland does mistaken them for each other, but it's only on occasion. They usually talk to each other about random stuff. Maryland is usually at South's house so that South doesn't get worried about her. Back during the Civil War, Mary was crippled by the Battle of Antietam. South immediately helped Mary with everything after. Even today, South still helps Mary with stuff even though Mary is fully healed and can do things on her own.

Pennsylvania (Will H. Penn)
They don't really talk much. They were close, but after the Civil War, they became separated. They still talk on occasion and Dela loves that Penny doesn't look over her and North.

South and North Jersey (Nicky and Mike J. Mitchell)
North is Dela's debating partner. Dela usually goes to his house so that she can debate with him. They do talk outside of that, but it's because South invites her over.

South and Dela usually go out to parties together. Del and South love to play pranks or teasing others. They also bond over farming together which is why South rarely goes back to his house. Dela has seen South get angry and was freaked out when she first saw it.

Virginia (Vinny E. Jefferson)
Delaware and Virginia are close. She feels like she can trust Virginia and feels safe around him. Unlike some other states, Dela doesn't mind Ginny's over protective and caring nature. South loves to come over to Ginny's house so she can hear Ginny playing some of his instruments. However, she can get upset when Ginny treats nearly every conservation as if he's speaking to someone in power.

America (Alfred F. Jones)
They have a good relationship, but don't talk much. The only times South sees America is when she's ghost hunting with North and Mary or when North and America are talking together.

Sweden (Berwald Oxenstierna)
Sweden doesn't really talk to Dela, leaving Dela to do all the talking. South hates it, but persists so she can know him better. She talks in Swedish to get him to open up sometimes. She also gets to take him to her house and shows off Beth and Chris, North's blue hen and her chihuahua.

England (Arthur Kirkland)
