Your Heritage, Polandball Style

Hello /r/polandball users! First off I would like to take the time to introduce myself, my name is TheReasonableCamel and I'm your newest moderator for this awesome subreddit.

Us mods have been talking and we thought it would be fun to have a thread for your personal heritage with a template that we provide for you to fill out with countries, provinces, empires, now non-existent countries or whatever you see fit.

This is the template http://i.imgur.com/fDWNjwn.png for you to use. Brother means a country that yours is friendly with, possibly an ally or you may have been under colonial rule from a similar power. Father is your "current father" so for example Canada's is Britain. Ancestor could either mean the first people of your land or the empire that used to control your country. Natural enemy would be for example North and South Korea. Friendly rival is somebody you may compete with but are deep down good friends. Best friend is your countries top ally or favourite other country. Former enemy could be say if you are French it would be England.

YOU CAN USE THE SAME ANSWER MORE THAN ONCE, POST YOUR FINISHED TEMPLATE IN THE COMMENTS BELOW

This thread will be in contest mode for 24 hours. It will only show one upvote and no downvotes for every submission but don't worry! Just because it won't show it doesn't mean your votes don't count. This is to encourage everyone to submit and after the time frame you all will be able to see who's is the most popular. If this is very popular we may increase the time in contest mode to 48 hours for more people to submit.

Please remember to follow to Polandball tutorial with your submissions.

Cheers, TheReasonableCamel

WE HAVE DECIDED TO TURN OFF THE CONTEST MODE AFTER 24 HOURS

Now you will be able to see the favourite heritages, don't worry though if you are a little late you can still submit your own heritage, polandball style. A big thank you to everyone who participated in this, it was great to see all the users who aren't approved submitters yet taking their shot at making polandballs, as well as the approved submitters.

Tried for the UK, couldn't decide on father or brother so went for something different. I classed non-disowned as colonies settled by the UK that didn't revolt. Bonus if anyone can figure out all the overseas territories from my terrible clues.

Brazil!

Yes, I dumped the template with its irregularly-spaced straight lines and did my own. Deal with it.

My country: HUEHUEHUEHUE

Brother: Argentina. He's our beloved little brother (emphasis on little).

Father: Portugal

Ancestor: Africa! Many of us are of mixed ethnicity and proud of it, unlike some people around here...

Natural Enemy: None! Everybody loves us! (You do, right? ... Guys? Guys???)

Friendly Rival: Argentina. They can't stand the fact that we are so much better than them.

Best Friend: Everybody, yay!!

Former Enemy: Paraguay. We kicked their ass big time 150 years ago.
