West Virginia

West Virginia (ウェストバージニア州, U~esutobājinia shū) or Wesley "Wes" Mountain Smith (ウェスリー・マウンテン・スミス, U~esurī maunten Sumisu) is a fan-made character in Hetalia: Axis Powers. He represents the State of West Virginia. He's often called West as a nickname.
==Appearance==
West Virginia has a broad frame, likely due to his years of work in the mines with short black hair, forest green eyes and brown skin that's usually covered in coal dust. He has two scars that are both from the Civil War, a scar on his shoulder from the Battle of Harpers Ferry and a scar on his shoulder blade from the Battle of Shepherdstown. He has two strands of hair, both representing the Eastern and Northern Panhandles. He also has a necklace that represents the Shenandoah Valley. West is usually seen in dirty clothes, namely, overalls, a shirt and boots from working in the coal mines.
==Personality and Interests==
Many people think of West Virginia as quiet and introverted. However, that's not the case. He is still introverted, rather talking to his twin or Ginny rather than a stranger. But, West is quite vocal and is adamant about his position, refusing to move no matter what. West doesn't like showing his emotions and often doesn't apologize for his behavior, especially during the Civil War.
