Himaruya's Production Notes On Spain
(These just keep getting more and more interesting)

・He is completely unable to read situations. He doesn't even try.

・He is a country of everlasting sunshine which is the source of his big hearted, cheerful personality.

・He used to be in really high spirits, but in a short time he was beaten down by England and Holland. He has walked through a pitiful history of being knocked down from his seat of a major power by the newcomer America he was going after and showed of by the surrounding major powers.

・For some reason only with South Italy he stays affectionate, even when he's bankrupting his purse.

・He became related to the same Habsburg family with Austria through arranged marriage. Spain got appointed with the older brother. This relationship ended completely in with the War of the Spanish Succession.

・He has an undesirable but inseparable relationship with France. Pierre #1 is for communication with Spain.

[Meaningless things]

・He became this Kansai-ben speaking pitiful character thanks to a Spanish friend.

・But I think it's good that he got Kansai-ben. Also, about the two countries linked by the Habsburg-family, I was a little surprised that Spain got the older brother. It's also sad that the big brother's life was shorter.

Hi! I've just found this wikia and I find it incredibly useful! People can see you guys work hard in order to give as much information as possible, and that's wonderful.

However, in the "Name" section of this page, I found an awful mistake.

Yeah, it's true that we Spaniards have two surnames. However, the author got the etymology of the surnames wrong:

-Fernández/Hernández mean both "son of Fernando/Fernán/Hernando/Hernán" ("Fernando" + "ez", "Hernando" + "ez"). "-Ez" is a suffix of Castilian origins (believed to be inherited from Visigoths), which means "son of" (just like "-son" in English). It's right, though, that they're both common surnames.

-While Carriedo seems to appear both in Northern and Southern Spain (I tried to look for more info, but it's such a rare surname...)

I'm sorry if this comes off as rude or something like that. It's just that I thought it would be unjust for your fans to have wrong information, that's all...
