Katherine Victoria Jones
Katherine Victoria Jones is a fanmade Axis Powers Hetalia character. She represents the State of Florida (Furorida-フロリダ), one of America's 50 children.

Appearance
Katherine is quite the tan girl, due to spending countless hours out in the sun. Her hair is a fair brown and her eyes dark brown. She has a flick of hair that is always standing out on the right side of her head. This represents the Panhandle reigon of the landmass. As for clothing, she wears an orange shirt with black hems, purple short shorts (she complains non-stop when she wears anything longer), and orange flip-flops. On her right ankle is a blue-beaded anklet which represents the Florida Keys. Oh, don't forget the shark tooth necklace.

Due to being attacked by the sometimes vicious hurricanes June through November, she has scars all over her legs, and a few on her arms.

Personality
Having been raised by Spain for quite a while, Katherine has developed into a spunky, peppy woman who cheers life on, no matter what problems may be arising. Be it a Category 5 hurricane heading straight towards her, a sinkhole in Brooksville, or a seizure-inducing heat wave, she's always smiling. She's the "Come at me, bro" kind of woman. But, of course, Spain isn't her only father.

From 1564 to 1723, she also had a French influence! Her capital at the time, Pensacola, was being ping-ponged back and forth between French and Spanish rule. From France she gained her amazing cooking and baking skills.

What would an American state be without a hint of British in them? From 1763 to 1780, she was Great Britain's territory. From England she inherited her ditziness and astonishing ability to loose things in the simplest of ways. One minute she's got a glass of orange juice in her hand, she sets it down somewhere, and forgets where she put it five minutes later.

Finally, on March 3rd, 1845, she became America's state! America gave her a love of cheeseburgers, french fries, and all the good stuff. Not to mention her goofy laugh and smile.

Some things about her she's developed on her own, though. Over time she's built quite a few amusement parks on her land; Disneyworld, Busch Gardens, and Seaworld are her most widely known. These parks have turned into a huge daredevil; drop her into a pool of sharks, and she'll act like nothing happened. Present her with the world's largest roller coaster, and she'll tell you it's too small.

Likes & Dislikes
Katherine isn't too detailed when it comes to likes and dislikes. If you were to ask her what she liked and didn't like, she'd be blunt and simply give you a short, basic list. She's also like that because it's hard to write paragraphs about likes and dislikes.

Katherine likes swimming, fishing, beachcombing, visiting her theme parks with friends, singing, dancing, running, hanging out with her fathers (Alfred's the most popular with her), cooking, going to the mall, alligators, flamingos, hurricanes (ever heard of hurricane parties?), her Native Americans (See Seminole), playing football, and obviously, oranges. She dislikes city-states (Example, New York City), cleaning up hurricane damage, and the old people that inhabit 60% of her land.. thumb|left|300px|Florida State University's football team is named after the Seminole tribe, making FSU her favorite college football team. (Please excuse me, I love football.)

Habits
Katherine's main language may be English, but that never stops her from speaking Spanglish. She often mixes Spanish words and phrases into her conversations, no matter if the one she's speaking to can understand her. Only when she's alone or extremely upset will she speak French.

Alfred F. Jones (America)
Alfred is her current father, and the one she plans on sticking with.

Antonio Fernandez Carriedo (Spain)
Also a close father of hers. She loves him to death and visits him often.

Francis Bonnefoy (France)
Another father. She doesn't talk to him as much as they used to, but when they do strike up a conversation it will more often than not last for hours.

Arthur Kirkland (England)
Her most reccent father after Alfred. She talks to him a lot, too.

Colin Grey Jones (State of Washington) Washington.png
Colin is her closest brother, whom of which has been there for her countless times. If anyone is giving her trouble, or she's feeling stressed, he's the first one to know about it. (On the side note, Colin is another OC. However, he does not belong to me, and their relationship does not involve history whatsoever.)

Logan Kirkland (British West Florida)
Logan is a tiny micronation that stalks her everywhere, telling her "Get married to my daddy." Also known as, England. (See Dominion of British West Florida) (Again, he is an OC of mine.)

Hey hey papá, I want orange juice!

Hey hey mama, hey hey mama!

Somehow I can't forget the taste of the key lime pie I ate earlier!
