Victorian pudding: Before the Victorian times the christmas pudding was actual a staple of the British diet, it was a way of preserving meat, and was only became confectiony during Victorian times.
I only drew this because I have seen England wear the union jack shirt a few times in some of the comics he appears in (only a few) so I thought It would be funny if I draw England trying to choose what to wear.
Well the english flag aka Saint George flag is his flag and represents just England
And British flag aka Union Flag aka Union Jack ( I know it's only suppose called when on a ship but a lot of people call it a Union Jack also it's funnier to say) represents all of the U.K which was why Scotland and Ireland wasn't happy seeing him wear it honestly I wish Humon made a spreate character for the UK I imagine it like King Europe situation where UK or Britain is "boss" of the British countries and territories
@AmericanButterfly I agree, it could have some funny ideas too - since a lot of people mix-up the UK with England, so maybe either only the UK countries can see UK or UK looks almost identical to England, LMAO.
@Dinolil1 I made my own UK but I left him on DA, he's actually the son of Sister England and Scotland because the United Kingdom was created when Scotland and England merged as one country
my headcanon is the British isles are a bit like Nordics where not directly related but may share a common ancestry like with Grandpa North and where how Brother Denmark and Brother Sweden sometimes don't get along but Brother Denmark gets "along" with Sister Sweden that's how I see Brother Scotland and Brother England not getting along but Brother Scotland and Sister England getting "along"
I did this cause I'm a sucker for Romeo and Juliet style romances (I mean where they don't die)
I'm not really planning on posting them on DA I kind of retired them but here Sister UK and Brother UK
Symbolically, The lion represents the urge to impose one's idea upon the world, while the unicorn exemplifies the drive to bring harmony through insight and understanding. their effects are often identical, but their different approaches tend to promote strife. however, when the lion and unicorn work in harmony towards the same goal, no other creature can withstand them because they represent the union of opposites.
also, Brother UK does get mistaken for his uncle (the fact he's much younger and not a Doppelgängermakes it funnier)
Point, but this comic is based on stereotypes and people get England and the U.K. confused (as well as a number of English people). Reasonableness is only going to get us so far.
Well England could wear either shirt, similarly Scotland, Wales and N Ireland can also wear the left one as it represents all of our nations.
It does point out a problem of English and British identity as the two are often merged in a way which isn't the case for the members of the union. For instance people talk of say Anglo-American relations, the Anglo-Japanese alliance, Anglo-German naval rivalry prior to WWI when strictly speaking the Anglo should be replaced by British. However your never going to get that sort of thing changed as its so deeply embedded in both national culture and many history sources, any more than your likely to get the correct regal number for kings named Edward in this country.
