Probably my most unpopular Alfred headcanon is that he didn't participate in the roaring 20's at all because he was busy being a farmer in Oklahoma that decade
#hws america
#aph america
#Hetalia
#it serves narrative purpose in my mind
#I headcanon that from about 1835 to 1930 actually wasn't getting paid by the U.S government
#and was bouncing from state to state taking human jobs to make ends meet
#in the 1910's he was working in the meat packing industry in Chicago
#but when he got involved with union organizing for that industry he ended up having to skip town to avoid an FBI raid
#flees to Rural Oklahoma and changes his name from Alphonsus Kirkland to Alfred Jones
#and this sets him up to be in the middle if the dust bowl in the 30's (a historical period I find much more interesting than the 20's)
#the dust bowl causes him to move out to California where he works as a seasonal farm laborer for a while
#and then when FDR becomes president putting Alfred back on payroll gets lumped into his social welfare reform
#and Alfred finally gets a hand in his own government again
#and yeah I know no one else in the fandom agrees with this
#but you know
#my blorbo and my blog so I'll say what I want
