== Personality and Interests==
Massachusetts is a young man with a cocky, know-it-all attitude and a sharp tongue. He has an air of being better than everyone else. Being raised by Purtians, he takes pride in being knowledgeable and perfect. Due to this, he is extremely opinionated and believes everyone else's opinion is wrong if it doesn't match up with his. Though he is quite smart, it is a known fact that he is a Masshole. He loves to piss people off and does it for fun.
Though, despite this cocky and annoying behavior, he can get angered quite easily. He'll freak out over the smallest things and has a rather difficult time controlling it, especially when driving or when being bossed around. He likes to call everyone else a bad driver, but multiple states have quite a different opinion. He is known for being impatient and complains about it even if it has only been a few minutes.
Mass is also fiercely protective of the people he cares about, even though he bullies and teases them. If there is one thing Mass will always have, that is Dunking Dounts, specifically their coffee. He is obsessed with coffee and has multiple cups a day. This has caused a coffee limit a day for him, something he isn't happy about. Mass loves his sports teams and obnoxiously cheers of them.
He also loves a good debate and does it as a way to clear his head. Another way he clears his head is whale-watching or sailing or cross-country skiing and sometimes, he hunts as a way. He excels in anything about technology and finance. Mass' favorite foods are chowder, lobster and baked beans. He is a ridiculously talented basketball and volleyball player. He has a Boston terrier he named Forever after Maine's human nickname.

Mass has made it known that he wants reconnect and actively seeks the attention and approval of his older brother, but Maine doesn't seem to want to reconnect at all.
===Connecticut (Minty C. Murphy Atwater)===

Rhode has told him to stop challenging her and leave her alone, he doesn't listen. He doesn't see the problem and believes they both like it.
===Rhode Island (Ren H. Rhodes)===
Rhode is the only sibling Mass actually talks to. Mass thinks that Rhode believes he's stupid when she tries to get him out of his opinionated mindset. He dodges her attempts as much as possible.

Mass also helps with Rhode and her interest in architecture.
===New Hampshire (Ava G. Collins)===

===North New Jersey (Mike J. Verhoeven)===
Mass doesn't talk to North in person anymore, but they still talk a lot through call or text. Both are into IT and biotechnology and like to getting into debates about both subjects. Most people will listen to their conversations and think it's gibberish. Both of them fostered their relationship during the Revolution as North proved to be a good battle planner. While strategizing, Mass disregarded North and blamed him when the plan didn't work. This is one of the reasons North doesn't visit Mass.
===Nova Scotia (Maisie C. MacNeil)===
WIP!
===New York State (Brooke A. Verhoeven)===
Both being quite popular, both as states and colonies, both Mass and Upstate attract the attention of America. Mass quickly became jealous of America's attention on her instead of him.

He has also tried to mess with her siblings. However, nothing seems to bother her.
===Plymouth Colony (Reverie Kirkland)===
Unlike his siblings, Mass adored Plymouth and held her as a role model. She helped instill his opinionated and arrogant mindset and he always wanted to impress her by being mean to those she hated. She encouraged this behavior. He didn't like Rhode arguing with her and constantly defended her. He also tried to get Maine to speak with her, with little results. He was deeply hurt when she died and sulked about for months after.
===America (Alfred F. Jones)===
Being one of the first successful colonies, they quickly bonded. They were grew closer as their hatred for England's rule grew. They encouraged each other to rebel against England and they both came up with ideas of how to rebel. Though the Revolution was decades ago, they both still like to brag about it, especially Mass. Since America is usually at his house in Boston, they usually go out for coffee together.
===England (Arthur Kirkland)===
When he was younger, Mass respected England. Though this changed when England started imposing taxes. They started to argue and drift apart.
