COUNTRY † AMERICAN TERRITORY † LOYAL† PROUD

The smallest island of the Greater Antilles in the Caribbean, Puerto Rico is also the most proud of them all. Maria grew up wild and there is nothing under the sun that could hope to break her, she has withstood the near wiping out of her indigenous family, raids, wars and attempted kidnappings. Her capital city has been burned more times then she'd like to mention and every year she stands tall against the onslaught of Mother Natures anger. Against everything though, Maria always comes back stronger then before, and is more then willing to prove just how formidable she can be.

† AND WHEN YOU CRUMBLE AWAY UNDER PRESSURE
YOU NEED TO BORROW MY STRENGTH AND I'LL LET YA †

Her biggest ally at the moment has to be America, as such she sees Alfred and all other Americans as good if not a little offbeat friends. She'd do anything for them, something she's shown time and time again by helping out in the war efforts without being asked. Many a different country has tried to kidnap her while she was under the rule of Spain, and for most she sees it as water under the bridge, after all who wouldn't want such a lovely island? Speaking of Spain, depending on the day she might think him friend or idiot.

† YOU ALWAYS KNOW HOW TO BRING ME DOWN
LET'S JUST FACE IT NOW I'M NEVER CHANGING †

Spain, on any given day that she feels like simply not liking the other country, any nation that happens to be an enemy of Americas is also an enemy of hers. She doesn't get along well with Cuba anymore after helping to block-aid him during the missile crisis. The Dominican Republic is another Caribbean island she doesn't get along to well with, simply because they always seem to be competing with each other for the spotlight in the Caribbean.

† YOU'RE A DIAMOND HOW I FOUND YOU I STILL DON'T KNOW
BUT NOW I'VE GOT YOU AND I WILL NEVER LET YOU GO †

Now lovers, thats a tricky one, she's had her share of brief intimate relationships, quiet affairs with other countries and humans alike. Who exactly? She doesn't like to kiss and tell, and though shes always been a bit free with her affection, she's never truly been free with her heart. Just when she was really starting to feel a pang of something for Spain, the other country laid an insult on her bad enough that she's generally kept any real emotion to herself ever since. You might get a kiss from her, but you won't ever win her heart, not easily at least.

Theo and Maria:

Well. We've talked about these guys, as I was thinking maybe we could make it official? xD So Theo has something of a..crush on Miss Puerto Rico, here. And she likes to visit, if I remember correctly..? Perhaps he could take her around the stores for the day or something, or take her to a baseball game, or..the possibilities. So many possibilities. Although due to his fear of flying, I don't know if he'd be too ready to travel to see her, so perhaps he'd avoid mentioning that. But not because he doesn't want to visit! hell, I can imagine he loves her place, but..yeah. It's all good. I felt like I needed to post something here c:

RHODE ISLAND and PUERTO RICO

Reina wouldn’t treat Maria very well. Reina is a bit beyond stuck up. She sees herself as a first class American and the fact that Maria is merely an American territory means that Reina wouldn’t give her the light of day. I don’t see Maria taking that very well given her personality. These two are not likely to get along at all.

HAWAII and PUERTO RICO

Now here is a friendship I can see. Leilani is very easy going, energetic and adventurous. She loves to just have fun and enjoy herself. Both of them being an island helps this as well as there are many interests that Leilani has that she could do with Maria. She’d love to drag the other girl surfing, water-skiing, tubing, etc. If Maria is up to it…

NEW ZEALAND and PUETRO RICO

Seeing as Maria is a US territory I can’t see bad relations here. Roa would respect and enjoy Maria’s company given her personality. Roa is social and quite loyal, and enjoys some competition and having some fun. I can see the two of them getting along decently and being friends. Roa would intentionally put a little competitiveness in activities if you agree to the possibility of them being friends. However, the two do not have individual political relations worth noting.
