I've been drawing lots of countryball/polandball comics for the past year or so, I don't know why I never thought to post them here, but I will be starting today. I'm going to post 3 comics every couple days, even though I've already made a lot, I want to make the transition from finished to new comics seamless. Also, this isn't just where I'm uploading my comics, I want to bring together all the history and geography fanatics on this forum, so feel free to post funny history/geography stuff here too. If you have countryball comics you've made, even better! Feel free to post them all here!

Here is the very first comic I made back in the summer of '23. A comic version of the very beginning of this video (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f1JgIjNpZ8A) by MrSpherical, who got me interested in countryballs.
You can tell it's my very first because the flags are inaccurate and some of the facial expressions are... weird.
Also, I made the mistake of putting the EU instead of the UN even thought this was way before it existed.  To be honest, the UN flag is just SUPER hard to draw, even now I try to avoid drawing it in comics.

Made this comic for Christmas last year right after watching National Lampoons Christmas Vacation. Comic version of this scene LOL  ;D: https://youtu.be/CpJ_FUVJPko?si=tui7YXDfiudOUiYf
 It's the comic that really started my regular comic making, before they were just doodles. Unfortunately, the actual paper copy doesn't exist anymore, too much damage.

Peace, please. No land is worth this much suffering for.

Sorry it's been so long, I kinda got sick, but now I'm gonna make up for it by posting several comics

This one was made the same day as the last one, on the same piece of paper

Will the successor to Rome claims ever end? Unfortunately, I don't think so.
