I know I am not the only one to be suffering from suddenly having memories that are not your own. I am not sure what it is I am experiencing, whose memories they may be. They are very overwhelming. They are related to nations in Europe, Germany specifically. I will not discuss further details on a public network about the content, though.

What I want to know,is if this is happening to everyone, and if so, does this mean someone else is experiencing mine? If so, I wish to speak with you.

I'm afraid I don't know. I'm not really the most well-versed in the ways of supernatural events like this.

I do believe so. I have memories of people I've never met before, not even citizens. One memory that stands out is being shot in the stomach, but I'm not sure why... I have plenty of memories of being shot that are my own.

You might have mine, then.

You've been shot and survived? I shouldn't be surprised, as I've seen people go through much worse and survive... but perhaps it's the clarity of the memory that makes it more shocking. You can only die for the country you represent so many times before some of the deaths start to blur together.

I think I may need you to clarify that.

["Die so many times"... what.]

Which part? The dying? If that's it: a nation is, for the most part, immortal if their country is strong. If they die, they will revive eventually. The two World Wars naturally gave me quite a few deaths.

So it's like you're the "spirit" of Germany? Or a person who has that spirit in them?

I suppose you could say that. But what exactly do you mean by "spirit?"

I suppose I'm more trying to understand it all. You make it sound as if the country is represented in a person, or more like are the country personified.

That's more or less it. You could say we're personifications and representations. For example, when something happens in our country, we can feel it.

I see. This is the first I've ever heard of something like this. It takes patriotism to whole new levels.

The concept seems a bit odd to almost everyone who doesn't have Nations at home, I've noticed. What does it have to do with patriotism, though?

Knowing there's a real person affected by what happens to a nation makes it much more, well, human.

Indeed. Not that it stops people from acting dangerously, though.
