opus no. 11 [video]

[babygotbach]

Ah, guten tag. If it isn't too much trouble, ladies of the gardens, I have a bit of an inquiry. I'd like to know what nations exist in each of your worlds. I've noticed during my time here that some of you recognize me, or at least my name, as a nation, but some of you do not. I've found myself curious about the nations that presumably exist in the worlds in which they are unfamiliar to me. Also, I am curious as to the state of the nations I know in other worlds as well.

This is all just idle curiosity, but I would be grateful for it to be indulged. Thank you.

Zepp, A Country, France, Calronia Kingdom, England, Torioria, and China.

Those aren't the nations that there always were, of course, nor is the current situation any more stable, I would imagine.

[imperial_ray]

Mm, she's right. The world map has changed in some significant ways even since I became aware of it...

[babygotbach]

....How fascinating. Some of those are nations that I know, but others I've never even heard of.

[jemerite]

[Hm? A pale and curious face appears on the mirror.]

There are many. Almost 200. Who are you?

[babygotbach]

Ah, I am the Republic of Austria. There are quite a few of us, yes.

[fionna_time]

I'm from Ooo, dude. There were other places once, but they were pretty much leveled after the mushroom war. Heck, I'm the last human left, so...I dunno. Maybe I'm from a really weird place somewhere out of your versions?

[babygotbach]

....Ooo? Mushroom war? Last human left? Forgive me, but I do believe you probably do come from a very odd world compared to myself and most of the others.

[shanghaiworld]

First I would like to say that you claiming others to recognize your name, despite not saying it, does not help those who do not know it.

As for your question... that's a little difficult to answer, as I am technically part of a different world than you, but I suspect still from the same kind of one.

[babygotbach]

Ah, forgive me. I am Austria. I believe we may have met in the past, actually, though I confess I don't recall your name either.

Curious. Care to elaborate?

[gun_cata]

Uh, well... a lot of them. I'm from the United States myself.

[babygotbach]

I believe we are likely from more similar worlds then. T

[snake_tailed]

If I remember correctly, my mom taught me that the there are ten or so nations in the world and many, many, small city states and unmapped areas. I'm from the Crescent Isle which is near the bottom of the world.

[babygotbach]

Only ten nations? Is that how it always was? Or did something in your world's history lead to this small number?

[mutation_is_great]

I have not met any others from a world particularly similar to mine, so I doubt you would recognize names such as Haven, the Sunlands, Reach, and others.

Now I must wonder what the demeanor of those nations would be, were they to take form and walk around as you do.

[babygotbach]

I cannot say I have. May I ask what your world is like? Geographically, politically, culturally, et cetera.

[spacejumping]

Depends on which part of the universe you'd like me to focus on.

[babygotbach]

...Do you mean to say that your world has intelligent life on more than one planet?!

[You have her full attention]

[cleaningstop]

There are many to be spoken of. Yes, that much is true. However!

There is only one country that I could devote my full attention to!

[babygotbach]

[she raises an eyebrow]

....And that would be?

[imperial_ray]

Ky and Sol know our world's geography better than I. But I do know that some nations in other worlds similar to ours simply no longer exist in our own.

[babygotbach]

...But they did in the past?

[Your world intrigues her the most. Or rather it terrifies her.]

[guardiandragon]

Couple hundred and change. You're not gonna ask me to name all of 'em, are you?

[babygotbach]

No, only some of the major ones so I can tell if our worlds are similar or not. If you don't mind, that is.

[cascademermaid]

Well, it's more regions than nations, but, yeah! There's five, at least: Kanto, Johto, Hoenn, Sinnoh, and Unova. [And retconned to be even more at some point. Oh, and also, now, that she thinks about it.]

... Hey, didn't I see that nation you're talking once before in those dream things, Austria?

[babygotbach]

...And your world also has those unusual creatures instead of animals, correct? I am still rather fond of that Snivy that I befriended in the Viridian Pavillion, I admit.

...Hm? I believe you found yourself in a dream version of Vienna once a while back, yes.

[pinokosthewife]

Goten? Gluten tag? Is that shome new short of tag they put on food in grochery shtores?

Pinoko came from Japan! Pinoko alsho went to Franche, Chili, Amewrica, Canada, Gewmany, Russia... ooh, Pinoko's gone to sho many plaches with her darling! And he's been to even more plaches on his own!

[Video]

[babygotbach]

What? No, it is simply a greeting in my native language.

...Well. I assume we inhabit similar worlds, then. If I am understanding the names of those nations correctly.

[Oh no children. Austria is hilariously bad at handling them, forever trying to talk to them as though they were adults.]
