"You know, 2021 wasn't as bad as 2020." America said, sipping on a glass of sparkling champagne that France had brought. Of course as all people do on New Year's Eve, they gather around and get drunk and eat food and just do some last minute stuff before the new year.

"Did anyone catch on fire this year? I genuinely forgot." England asked and the nations thought for a moment before shrugging.

"Remember January 6th, America?" China yelled from across the room. America grimaced.

"Unfortunately...remember all that Twitter drama that one game about looking for your lost sibling caused? Everyday some new bullshit would happen and then someone got mad about it."

"What else happened this year?" France asked, and the nations had to pause and think for moment.

"NFTs?" Canada said.

"It happened more towards the end of the year."

"Did someone get killed?" Russia asked.

"That was last year, Russia."

"Wasn't porn getting banned, or was that just a fever dream and a ounce of crack?" China asked and the nations looked at him in a 'wtf' way.

"What's with all those looks huh?! I'm genuinely asking!"

"But, why though?" England asked, sipping his 3rd glass of champagne.

"We all have urges, you either use your imagination or you don't."

"EHEM. Anyways, ignoring the change in topic, what do y'all think 2022 is gonna be like?"

"Eh, hopefully not bad." Canada said.

"Full of beauty and grace~" France said with a flourish, roses magically falling around him. We don't talk about the roses.

"Booze." England hiccuped, downing a bottle of whiskey that he had brought with him.

"Good fortune and food. Made by me!" China pulled out many pots of food from god knows where, and put them on the covered meeting table. They used a white bedsheet instead of an actual table cloth because all of them forgot to bring one.

"Hard work." Germany said while Italy, the hyper active pasta maniac that he was, nodded as he slurped another plate of the delicious cooked wheat and sauce.

"Better anime." Japan whispered, getting war flashbacks from High Guardian Spice.

"That everyone will become one with mother Russia!" Russia said with a smile. He then proceeded to drink vodka with his pipe. Unhygienic.

"Ve~ Do you think we'll all stop being dumbasses and start using our brains for once?" Italy asked and the nations, as always, thought about it.

"Nah." They all said in unison. They were dumb and proud. Sure it almost got them killed but they lived till the end of 2021 so did it really matter?

"Hey, hey! The count down's about to start!" Canada yelled, but it was more like a slightly loud tone of voice, but the nations still heard it anyway.

Germany proceeded to pull up a livestream of Time's Square. The nations started to count down, grabbing onto eachother for dear life as they reached the final 10 seconds of the year.

"10!" Italy yelled.

"9." Japan said.

"8." Germany also said.

"7~" France seductively said.

"6." England hiccuped in his drunk stupor.

"5!" Canada said, smiling happily.

"4!" China exclaimed.

"3!" Russia said, gripping his pipe tighter.

"2!" America yelled.

"1! Happy New Year!" The nations all screamed, shout, shit, and threw up as 2022 finally hit the world. Well, not exactly the world, but eh, they were all in America for this world meeting.

Nations started throwing chairs, throwing up on the table, eating the table, throwing themselves on the floor, and sitting in the corner rocking back and forth. But above the now open ceiling, the stars shone bright. Twinkling little dots in the sky, yet the nations swore they could see them smiling....

Smiling down at the products of the world.

And now, is the end of our journey. We've had a brilliant two years together. I never imagined that a day would come where I would be officially ending And Now, The Products of The World. But, here we are. I've written this a couple hours before New Year's but by the time you've read this you'll already be in 2022! Which is amazing!

I hope you all, my avid readers, and the ones who've only read a couple oneshots, all live long and happy lives. I'm quite sad that I didn't get to write more, though I've expressed myself enough. It's time for me to move on from Hetalia. So, goodbye, my lovely products of the world.
