Pennsylvania

Pennsylvania (ペンシルベニア州, Penshirubenia-shū) is a fan-made character in Hetalia: Axis Powers. She represents the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania. She's often called Penny (or Penn) as a nickname. Her human name is Annette "Annie" Christina Williams-Jones (アニー・クリスティーナ・ウィリアムズ・ジョーンズ, Anī kurisutīna U~Iriamuzu jōnzu).

Appearance
Pennsylvania has pale skin, wavy brown hair that reaches her shoulders, periwinkle blue eyes, and a round face. She doesn't look it at first glance, but Penny is actually quite strong from her years of working in mines. She was severely wounded at the Battle of Gettysburg during the Civil War, leaving her crippled for some time afterwards. Though she's healed, Penny has a certain limp to her walk if you pay very close attention. Pennsylvania's most recognizable outfit is a frilly blouse with dark trimmings, usually paired with a skirt.

Personality
Sarcastic, loud, and foul-mouthed, Pennsylvania's personality is perhaps concealed by her rather innocuous, docile physique. She is energetic and talks fast; many people have noted her unique accent and style of speaking (for example, instead of saying "you all" or "you guys" or even "y'all," Pennsylvania says such quirky things like "youse guys" and even drops in a "yinz" every now and then). Having a knack for comedic timing, Penny is also rather brash, painfully honest, and is even a bit sardonic a times, but she isn't flat out mean. Even so, some other more reserved states (Especially from the Deep South) have bluntly called Penny "kind of an asshole," but she doesn't let it get under her skin. If she truly finds something hilarious then she will laugh uproariously at it, regardless of whether or not it's appropriate for the social setting, and she's been said to have a very "recognizable laugh."

Pennsylvania tends to wrap up her true feelings under layers of jokes and irony, but deep down she is a cynic. However, despite her proclivity to being sarcastic and rude, Pennsylvania does occupy the classic "jerk with a heart of gold" trope. She's formed a strong kinship with her closest friends and family, and so far hasn't ever backed down from a challenge. She is also very tolerant of different people, and her cynicism seems to stem from a desire for a fairer world.

Pennsylvania is a huge sports geek, having an undying, and quite aggressive, love for the Eagles and the Phillies. Like New York, Penny loves reading, especially fantasy novels, and she has a strong love for chocolate. Specifically, Hershey's chocolate. She has a (mostly) imaginary pet frog named Jack, who can talk.

Relationships
New York (Eric A. Aaldenberg-Jones): New York has always been someone Penny can rely on, and she feels more comfortable expressing herself to him, somewhat. They have been close since the time they both lived under England, and their bond became nigh inseparable during the struggle of the Civil War. New York enjoys Penny's sarcastic, biting humor, being a New Yorker he himself is prone to being quite sardonic at times.

Delaware (Sandy J. Briggs-Jones): Pennsylvania's brother, Delaware, is among the few people that she's genuinely very sweet towards. Unlike most, she never overlooks Delaware.

Virginia (Alexandria C. Northam-Jones): Virginia's bossy attitude can really rub Pennsylvania the wrong way. Penny though usually tries to brush her off, but if it gets bad enough then she knows exactly which of Virginia's buttons to push that'll piss her off.

Texas (Samuel A. Garcia-Jones): In addition to just being turned off by his gung-ho vibes, Pennsylvania despises Texas due to their sports rivalry; she loathes the Dallas Cowboys. Texas is actually a little afraid of her and will never be seen near her, for fear of being hit over the head with a blunt object.

New Jersey (Broderick S. Murphy-Jones): Pennsylvania shares New York's love of dunking on New Jersey. Her reason for doing this is really unclear, but it's likely that she simply gets a kick out of bullying him - just for fun. She hates having her house so close to his, and claims that his place stinks.

America (Alfred F. Jones): She and America have always had a strong relationship. She was among his most ardent supporters during the Revolution, and was a trusted source of counsel for him. In modern times their friendship has only been strengthened with time, and America is one of Penny's favorite people to hang out with. She once bested him in a cheesesteak eating contest, much to his surprise.

England (Arthur Kirkland): Despite being one of the strongest sources of rebellion against him during the Revolutionary War, England and Pennsylvania actually get along well, perhaps due to their snarky natures aligning. Though she can't see them, she knows his imaginary friends are real.

Trivia
