Description
Finland's narration: Mr. Sweden didn't like how he was treated at Mr. Denmark's house. So, he ran away from home. I'm a frightened fragile flower, so I decided I should go with him. And so, we kept walking, and walking, and walking. Finally, we ended up at a place that looked kinda familiar.

Finland: Hold on. I know this place!

(Opening)

Estonia: Hello? Yes, who is there please?

Finland: Estonia!!

Estonia: Wow, hi Finland! Why are you here?

Finland: Oh, I missed you so. You have no idea!

Estonia: Ok… and who is this person behind you?

Sweden: (DUN)

Estonia: Huuaaaahhhhhh holy Martin Luther, is he scary!!

Sweden: What?

[He couldn't hear]

Finland: I tried very hard not to say that to him, and then you just spit it out like it was nothing! Now you've made him angry..!
(Estonia: Hhhhhehhhhhhhhhhhhehhhhhhhhh….)

Estonia: Oh right, sorry. He just terrifies me.
Um… I am terribly sorry for being so rude. Please forgive me. So… yes. Well, I am called Estonia.

Sweden: Ja. Well I am Sweden. This… is my wife.

Finland: Huh?! Hey, don't be so silly! Why would you say something like that?!

Sweden: Hm…

Finland: Ahaha. Ahahahahaha. Ahahahahahahehh…

Estonia's thoughts: Finland… to be honest, I'm a little worried about your future.

Finland: Hetalia!

Latvia: Ahhh! Ahahaha!
Finland's narration: After that bit of awkwardness, Estonia, Latvia, and myself spent some time rejoicing over being reunited. Until…
(Estonia, Latvia, and Finland: Ahahahahahahaha!....)

Sweden: Hey, you there. And the little one, too. I want you to come with me.

(Finland: WHAAAAAAAAAAAAAaaaaaaaa….)
Finland's narration: Mr. Sweden said something absurd and things got really awkward again!

Estonia: Oh, sorry we can't do that! Right, Latvia?

Latvia: Yes! That's right! We would have to asking Mr. Poland first!

(Estonia: Eheh…ee….ehhhheh…)
(Latvia: …….aha…..)
Finland's narration: See what I mean? Totally awkward! Wait a minute… is this the reason Mr. Sweden wanted to come here to begin with?!

(Finland: Ahhhheheh… ehhheheh…)
Finland's narration: And so…

(Poland: Nnnnnhhhrr…)
Finland's narration: …Poland showed up.

Poland: Nnnnhhhhrrrrr…

Sweden: (DUN)

Poland: They filled me in. So you're Sweden, huh? Do you have a pair on you or what! You can't just show up and try to take what's rightfully mine! Estonia and Latvia are staying~!

Sweden: How come.

Poland: What? "How come?" Well… it's like this. I mean, I… they both belong to me…! And I don't like you, so--!

Sweden: (DUN)

Poland: I will never, like, ever give them to you, so sit on that!

Sweden: I see.

Sweden's thoughts: I guess I've done all I can. It'll just be Finland and me from here on out.

Poland: Nnnnhhhh…

Sweden: (DUNN)

Poland: Uwaah!

Lithuania: Ehhuh?!

[Shy towards strangers]
[He says what he wants to say and then invokes his shyness towards strangers.]

Finland's narration: So in the end, Mr. Sweden ended up taking half of Estonia and Latvia. He's just that scary.

[A young man passing by (Second appearance): Mr. Nuruo Nuruyama (23)]

Sweden: Hello there.

Nuruo: HWAAAAAAAAAAH!

Sweden: What is your order?

Nuruo's thoughts: Ohhhh no this place is freaking me out, I can't handle it!

Nuruo: Um, a piece of cake please?

Sweden: Hm.

Nuruo: Huh? But I didn't…!

Sweden: Ja. It's free.

Nuruo: Oh… thank you…!

Nuruo's thoughts: Well that was delicious.

Translations
• Martin Luther: This showed up in the last episode too, but I forgot to mention anything since I got so used to hearing his name. Martin Luther was a theology professor, composer, priest, and monk, as well as the most famous name in the Protestant Reformation. He got mad at the Catholic church for indulgences (paying your way into heaven so the church could build fancy things). He believed that faith in Jesus was the only way to get into heaven and that good deeds had nothing to do with it, and denounced gaudy and luxurious worship, so the gaudy "good deed" that indulgences suggested were very not ok with him. He also challenged the authority of the Pope to interpret scripture, claiming the Bible is the only credible source of God's knowledge. So, he nailed 95 Theses to the door of All Saints' Church in Wittenberg in 1517, a very long complaint letter to a very unchallenged system. Protestant is actually an umbrella term for many branches of Christianity that have similar beliefs.
• Sweden would like you to come with him pls: Sweden was actually a pretty chill guy when it came to getting land. He peacefully persuaded Finland to live with him by showing him some cool real estate, even before they first joined up with Denmark. Gustavus Adolphus, in the 1600s, helped Sweden start to live up to his scary reputation. Gustav led Sweden to great feats during the 30 Years War, and was the first Protestant king of Sweden. The crown came in a package deal with 3 wars: the Kalmar War, in which Sweden started hanging around Norway and asking for money so Denmark punched him, leading to Sweden setting fire to some of Denmark's stuff and Denmark taking Sweden's lunch money; the Ingrian War, which was just a really bad time for Russia; and the Polish-Swedish War, which is the one we're focusing on today. The king of Poland at this time was actually Gustav's cousin. There was this thing where he was king of Sweden too for a while, but then a civil war happened and he lost that spot. Poland still kinda wanted to conquer Sweden though, so King Sigismund spent a lot of time brooding over that, and that's pretty much why the war happened at all. Sweden ended up gaining most of Livonia, including Riga. Northern Estonia was already part of Sweden at the time. Following the 30 years war, Sweden got his hands on much of Denmark, Russia, and Germany, but then he overexerted himself and Russia took a handout in 1721.
• Nuruo: Apparently it's a pun on the word ぬるい (nurui), which means lukewarm or lenient, and is a joke about how he keeps going to these extreme cafés. And Nuruyama is a joke on ぬるま湯 (nurumayu), literally lukewarm water, and a sheltered, comfortable lifestyle. So his name is Tepid Lukewarm Water?
