-when using human names his sisters call him 'Vanya', as though he were still a little boy. this is in part disciplinary, since his older sister has a habit of using it to emphasis that she's not happy with him for something, as she's opted not to call him by his TRUE name, which is, well. Russia.
-he can't really feel his fingertips and toes anymore, due to severe frostbite in the winter and his general size. He once took off his gloves to a rather thoroughly horrified Lithuania, who immediately ran for some salves. He thought that was a bit of a funny reaction to something so silly. Eh, it is nothing! Sometimes, I cannot feel my nose!
-Answers perfectly well to 'Motherland' and in fact is rather fond of it. In fact, if you wish to call him Mother he'll be rather flattered. He does THINK of himself as having a very strong maternal streak, yes! (there was a time when under Elisabeth I, that he wore dresses and went to very fabulous balls) Mother shall do his best to take care of you.
