Through any set of circumstances, Canada finds himself in the world's spotlight. At first it's nice, with all the new friends and special attention, but soon it becomes burdensome.
With everyone asking for his attention, he can't find the peaceful calmness he used to have. He's bombarded with pleas for help, radical groups, declarations of war for uncertain reasons, and other plagues of fame.
Bonus: While Canada is trying to control his newly-found attention, America finds a surprising period of calmness.
It all starts when South Korea declares war on him over their Starcraft lesson.
Canada had really just been looking for a few pointers on the game since a) it seemed like fun and b) Yong wouldn’t shut up about it so he figured that he’d play along. As America. As per usual. (Which would probably explain why Yong so kept demanding why his screen name was “toquelover” when toques were definitely not invented in Korea or America for that matter.)
He shifts in his seat, staring at the screen while Korea’s comment vaguely buzzes over his headset. Meanwhile his fleet takes a beating, his Corsairs no longer whipping around and picking at Yong Soo’s bulky Dragoons.
“E-Eh?” he manages. Sometimes the word just slips out.
The game pauses on screen and Matthew can see Yong Soo's entire fleet approaching his tiny one. “I’m going to declare war on you! You know war was invent-”
Matthew shakes his head despite the fact that the Korean is across and ocean and can’t see him. “Y-Yong, you can’t just declare war on me! I’m not America, and I don’t why you’d declare war on him in the first place. I’m-”
Yong’s voice crackles over the headphones. “Canada, and I'm declaring war on you!"

Well, this was certainly an interesting turn.
