The trio made it to Washington DC with little trouble. Please pretend politics aren't existing right this second.
"This is awesome! So much history is right here for us to explore! Where do we go first?" America exclaimed.
"Fort McHenry," Canada said. The brothers glared at each other.
"..... maybe we can see the Declaration of Independence...?" Mexico suggested.
"Fine, we'll do that first," Canada said. And so, the trio made their way to the Rotunda for the Charters of Freedom in the National Archives Museum. The trio went in and looked at the old papers in awe.
"It's so weird... I still have mine in a chest in the attic.... it's crazy that the humans have their own... the handwriting is so similar to mine it's terrifying....," America said.
"And I still have a copy of the treaty of Guadalupe-Hidalgo.... I wonder where THAT one is kept in this country," Mexico said. America sighed.
"Maybe history isn't so great...," America said. Mexico sighed.
"I'm just being bitter, this is really cool though. It's nice that you also had an entire army of humans fighting for your cause, without you even realizing. I guess it's the same for me and Nada," Mexico said.
"But doesn't it feel worse that at some point- heck, maybe even still- our people hated one another?" America said. Canada sighed.
"Y'know, if we had just waited a few years to grant the humans free will, maybe Mexico and America would be the closest allies in the whole world," Canada said.
"It's unfortunate we didn't wait then...," America said. The trio stood in silence for a few moments.
"....let's go see Fort McHenry," Canada said.
"...are we gonna fight over who won the war of 1812?" America asked. Canada shrugged.
"It was a pretty pointless war, no matter if anyone won or not.... did any of us really win?" Canada asked. America smiled and shook his head no. And so, the boys went to Fort McHenry.
"This is the place 'The Star Spangled Banner' was based off of, right?" Mexico asked.
"Yep, certified bop," America said.
"Says who?" Canada asked.
"Says me... not many people agree with me," America said.
"Just burn them like how I burnt down your Capitol," Canada said.
"Oooooooooooooooooooooh too soooooon," America said.
"I think you're just a little wimp," Canada said.
"Why can't you be this confident with people who aren't us?!" America exclaimed.
"Because I'm the better out of the three of us, but I wouldn't say I'm the best out of everyone in the world," Canada said.
"Wow ok," America said. Mexico chuckled.
"I just had a thought... what if 'Yankee Doodle Dandy' was your national anthem?" Mexico asked. America smiled.
"That'd be a hell of a statement... heck, it already is. England wrote that song to make fun of me but it's still one of my favorite songs to this day," America said.
"I guess you're just quirky that way," Mexico teased.
"Heh Yep iM nOt LiKe OtHeR cOuNtRiEs," America exclaimed.
Meanwhile, back at home, people still exist. Why are we hearing about them? I don't know, I don't have to explain myself, I'M AN ADULT NOW DAD I CAN DO WHAT I WANT.
