Key elements include the webcomic/manga origins, the satirical Hetalia: Axis Powers anime\n\nItaly Veneziano (イタリア・ヴェネチアーノ, Itaria Venechiāno), also known as just Veneziano, is a main character in the series Hetalia, and who the series is named after. Though he is most often referred to just as Italy by other characters and by Himaruya, he is as equally a personification of Italy as his older brother, Italy Romano, and he specifically is the personification of the northern part of Italy (北イタリア, Kitaitaria). \n\nITALY:\nItaly has short brown hair and brown eyes with a curl on the left side of his head, which acts as his erogenous zone when stroked or pulled. He is 172 cm tall, despairing at the 8 cm difference between him and Germany, as seen in episode 11. He wears a blue WWII military uniform, a black shirt, a tie (sometimes depicted light blue) and black boots. In earlier strips, his hair was shown smoother and his curl was drawn smaller, a change which was noted in a gag illustration. Italy's eyes were depicted as gray in the earliest artwork of him but it quickly changed to brown. He is also often depicted with his eyes closed.\n\nIn his first appearance in both versions of the manga, and the first two episodes of the anime, he wore a tan uniform that looked almost similar to his brother's, aside from being drawn as a jumpsuit in the manga (though it was shown as a two-piece suit in the anime).\n\nAs a child, he wore dresses and was often mistaken for a girl by Holy Roman Empire, Austria and numerous others. When not in uniform, he can often be seen dressed in a white sailor suit-style top with blue collar, necktie, sleeve bands and blue shorts. Italy is a cheerful, energetic man. He loves pasta, pizza, gelato, and cheese. Although he relies on Germany a lot, Italy doesn't really listen to what he says and instead daydreams or wanders off. His hobbies include cooking, siestas, painting, singing and flirting with any cute girl he sees. He also has the verbal tic of making a \"Ve\" sound (really said by Italians, above all in Emilia-Romagna, whereas you could hear a \"Be\" in other Italian regions, which is an abbreviation of \"bene\", \"good\", and it has the same function of the English interjection \"well\" at the beginning of a sentence), though in the anime adaptation, he makes other onomatopoeic sounds as well, a more notable one being a chant of \"Herahera\" (a Japanese onomatopoeia which means \"acting foolishly\" or \"frivolous\") .\n\nThough he was relatively weak and timid as a child, he was able to take on Turkey single-handedly at one point. It's also possible that he's a skilled fencer, as Himaruya entitled one of his blog entries \"Italy's Fencing Strength Is Abnormal.\" According to Germany, when his hands and legs are bound, he dies.\n\nItaly dislikes wearing helmets because it makes him feel shorter.\n\nRelationships\n\nGermany\n\nMain article: Germany\nItaly appears to see Germany as his closest friend and ally. He constantly relies on Germany when he is in a \"difficult\" situation or battle. Because of how much Germany has helped him, Italy often tries to help him relax but his methods nearly always seem to backfire and cause Germany to become angry. Even knowing how angry Germany can get, Italy views him as a great person he can count on and learn from.\n\nJapan\n\nMain article: Japan\nJapan and Italy W.S. ep36-1\nAnother of Italy's closest friends. Italy often shows Japan friendly attention despite Japan not being comfortable with physical contact. Italy has attempted to tone down this trait but often forgets and apologizes for it afterwards. Italy has tried to help Japan express his feelings more but has been faced with immense difficulty in this and has only been able to get him mad.\n\n\n\nAncient Rome\n\nMain article: Ancient Rome\nThe heir apparent to Rome's fortune and the grandson most often seen with Rome, Italy is shown to heavily care for and admire his grandfather. During his youth, Italy appeared to learn his artistic talent from Rome and was deeply sadden by his passing. Due to what happened to his grandfather, Italy refused to become a new Roman Empire when Holy Roman Empire offered him the chance to do so.\n\nItaly Romano\n\nMain article: Italy Romano\nItaly Brothers S1 Ep07-1\nItaly's older brother and family member he is most often seen with. Despite Romano's harsh behavior, Italy greatly cares about his brother and tries to help him get along with others. While they knew of each other during their youth, they did not meet face to face for several years and did not get along for quite a while as Romano was incredibly angry and jealous of the attention and inheritance Italy got from their grandfather. However, they were later able to work things out and renew their sibling relationship although Italy often has to fend off Romano's attempts to keep him away from Germany and Japan.\n\n\n\nHoly Roman Empire\n\nMain article: Holy Roman Empire\nChibitalia and HRE S1 Ep11-2\nAs a child, Holy Roman Empire would frequently chase Italy about, demanding that he should become part of the Holy Roman Empire. Italy was very frightened of Holy Rome because of his intense looks and atmosphere but was still willing to help him improve his art when asked. Over the time they spent together, Italy grew closer to Holy Rome to the point that he became greatly saddened by the news of his departure to war.\n\nPrussia\n\nMain article: Prussia\nPrussia is shown to like Veneziano very much, often referring to him as Ita-chan (a cutesy nickname) in Japanese, considering him cute[4][5] and even going as far as to directly ask him on a date, though Veneziano was oblivious to his question.[6] On other occasions, Prussia has been happy about going to Veneziano's place for dinner, stated that Veneziano can stay at his place for as long as he wants, been very excited whenever Veneziano commented on his blog (even telling Germany that \"one comment from Veneziano is worth more than 100 comments from other people\"), made funny faces to make Veneziano laugh, and taken many photos of Veneziano because of how cute he thinks he is.[4][7] In Prussia's Hatafutte Parade, he even says Italy, lieb' dich! (\"Italy, I love you\").\n\nWhen choosing Veneziano's route in Cleaning Mr. Prussia, it is said that Prussia has \"clear ulterior motives\". Upon arriving, Prussia finds Veneziano sleeping (something typical of him at 9AM on a Sunday), and begins to stroke his head, saying that it felt like the Risorgimento. As he does so, he daydreams about himself and Veneziano together on a gondola in Venice, with Veneziano dressed as a gondolier, and this is labeled as a \"Happy End\". A bonus illustration then depicts what appears to be Veneziano waking up as Prussia watches him.[8]\n\nThough they get along very well, Veneziano doesn't seem to return any romantic feelings towards Prussia. During the Christmas 2011 Event, he commented with embarrassment that Prussia was \"quite a free spirit\" in his youth, and he recalled hearing Prussia boasting about himself a lot, which doesn't impress him. Veneziano also added that Prussia hasn't changed since then.[9]\n\n\n\nAustria\n\nMain article: Austria\nChibitalia and Austria S1 Ep06-1\nAustria took control over a younger Italy after Ancient Rome fell and helped raise him with the assistance of Hungary in Holy Roman Empire's house. In the strip In Vienna, it is revealed that Austria had originally thought Italy to be a girl along with most others; when he and Hungary learn of Italy's voice maturing, he states that he expected something like this to happen and buys Italy boy's clothing from then on. Despite the somewhat harsh treatment Italy would receive from Austria, he greatly enjoyed Austria's music and appeared to not hold a grudge against him as he often greets him with excitement.\n\nHungary\n\nMain article: Hungary\nHungary helped raise Italy when they were both under Austria's rule and is considered to be an older sister figure to him. She is also one of the few who knew of Italy's true gender.\n\n\n\nPoland\n\nMain article: Poland\nItaly and Poland are shown to be good friends in a few of the \"Extra Stories\" and Comic Diary strips and have known each other since they were small children due to their long history of good relations. The two countries even reference each other in their national anthems, and Poland once asked Lithuania what he thought of Italy. It was Poland who gave Italy the idea to make an ejecting seat in Germany's Kubelwagon, as he had previously designed an airplane with one (which backfired on him).\n\nSpain\n\nMain article: Spain\nSpain and Chibitalia W.S. Ep10-2\nIn contrast to Romano's treatment toward him, Italy receives great love and support from Spain. Although they are not often shown together, Italy loves spending time with Spain and eating the flavorful food he provides. The two get along very well with one another and Italy expresses concern for Spain when he appears to be going through hardships.\n\n\n\nAmerica\n\nMain article: America\nAmerica and Italy have appeared together quite a few times and both are known for not being able to read the atmosphere. In Comic Diary 1, they were shown looking for the \"Legendary ability to read the atmosphere\" together.\n\nFrance\n\nMain article: France\nWhen he was still young, Italy grew up with a teenage France. The two got along well until Italy was taken to spend time with Ancient Rome. When he returned, France only wanted to gain control of him. They are still on rather good terms, as Italy still refers to France as Big Brother France and has visited him a number of times. France is also unwilling to harm Italy despite being enemies.\n\nEngland\n\nMain article: England\nEngland and Italy S6 Ep06-2\nAlthough the two appear to get along well when in a group, Italy is incredibly scared of England because of his \"tasteless\" food. He is often shown running away from England at great speed because he wants to avoid being captured by him and being made to eat his cooking.\n\n\nASEAN\n\nIn Chapter 377 of Hetalia: World☆Stars, he was invited by Thailand as a special guest because Italy is one of the most famous nations for tourism. Veneziano greeted the ASEAN group and said they could ask him anything, and then revealed that Thailand had asked him to spend a week visiting all of their countries. Vietnam asks if it was good or bad and if it was enjoyable to which Veneziano says it was very fun. Singapore asked what was the main factor for Italy's success in national branding, and Veneziano said he had no idea but it was important to be \"buono and bravo\". Philippines asks what food in his country Veneziano liked the most, and Veneziano said halo-halo. Indonesia asked what would be the most important tourist spots to have, and Veneziano said \"An inheritance from grandpa... I guess...\". Finally, Thailand asked if there was anything he didn't like when he was visiting their countries, and when Veneziano was hesitant to answer, Philippines and Singapore encouraged him. Veneziano then revealed their bugs were huge and he also saw a huge bat, and the ASEAN group seem surprised he brought up the environment of all things.\n\nGERMANY:\n\nGermany (ドイツ, Doitsu) is a main character in the series Hetalia. He is the personification of Germany. General: Germany is known for being very serious and straightforward majority of the time. He usually does not joke around, usually being all business, and is very efficient in his everyday life. Although he comes off as intimidating to others, Germany has been shown to be helpful to others.\nTraining: Germany can often be seen doing different forms of physical training and mental strategizing. He takes his physical training seriously, anything from cardio to weight lifting, and has used these same principals on others, such as Italy and Japan, with mixed results. When thinking of strategies, Germany will look into a variety of things that will help him formulate the best course of action; taking into consideration others personalities, ways of thinking, previous battle history, current military/country strength and power, and other things. Germany especially takes his weapons training seriously. Being skilled in firearms, he knows his weapons well and the proper way to use and maintain them. He has even instructed Italy how to use a grenade, but the other country did things the opposite of how instructed.\nLeadership: Germany is usually looked at as the head of the Axis group due to being bolder and being heavily involved with his military and keeping up to date with current military tactics and events. He is usually the one training others in combat and strategy and will lead meetings if necessary. Germany also believes in leading by example and had once given up drinking beer in order to encourage Japan to take his diet seriously.\nCleanliness: Germany is a well-known neat freak, needing to keep things clean and in proper order at all times. He is especially particular in keeping his clothing and house in order, having been seen properly folding his uniform before working out and even going behind Italy to keep his kitchen clean while he was cooking.\nHobbies: Some of his hobbies include making sweets, reading, and walking his dogs. Although he keeps it secret that he likes to bake cakes, he does not hide that he greatly cares for his pets. He can often be seen reading anything that catches his interest or to better understand something he is not familiar with, such as the behavior of Italians. \nPrivate interests: Mainly revealed through Italy's frightened gushing, Germany has quite an interest in sexual activities that he tries to keep hidden. Italy also claims that Germany has interests that would surprise most others if they knew of them.\nFriendships: Because of his personality and intimidating appearance, Germany has a difficult time making friends. He is noted to have not either have the time or social skills to approach others in hopes of getting acquainted until he met Italy. He was implied through his journal to have been somewhat bothered by this and had described that Italy was the first/only friend he had. However, when he does make a genuine friendship with someone, he is incredibly loyal and supportive of that person. He will often jump in to help with several situations and will gratefully accept their help when offered.\nFamily: Germany has several family members that are noticeably different than himself in terms of personality and country strength. Although he is younger than many of his relatives, he appears to be one of, if not the, strongest and most stable. These differences can be seen when he is around Prussia or Austria. Germany can be seen supporting the two because of delicacies or instability.\nRelationships\n\n* Italy: Germany and Italy are virtual opposites in terms of personalities which is a constant annoyance to Germany as he often has to bail Italy out of his situations. He often puts Italy through rigorous physical and mental training in hopes of making him stronger but appears to see that Italy does not retain much of the training. Although he is often highly annoyed by Italy's impulsive behavior, Germany had written in his journal that Italy was his first and only friend at one point. Possibly from this written admission, Germany will put up with Italy's excitable yet lazy behavior.\n* Japan: The last member to join the Axis alliance, Japan had known Germany for some time (as depicted in the original strips), although Germany said he can never tell what Japan has in mind. Germany appears to admire many things about Japan as he is very much like Germany in many ways, such as his work ethics and punctuality. When Japan had expressed concern about his health regarding his age and diet, Germany took it upon himself to help Japan get better and went to the length of giving up his beloved beer in order to set an example and inspire Japan to stick to his goal.\n* Austria: Austria and Germany were allies in both World Wars and lived together for a while during that time. Austria gives him advice during his confusion over Italy in the Valentine's Day strips. They appear to be very close, although Austria annoys Germany at times with his high maintenance behavior and tendencies to treat Germany like a servant.\n* Prussia: Germany's older brother and drinking buddy, who often refers to Germany as \"West\". Germany is often annoyed by many things Prussia says or does but is not afraid to physically restrain or hit him if he feels necessary. That said, Germany still cares about his brother and will often look out for him or join him on missions, such as when they infiltrated an American camp.\n\nJAPAN:\n\nJapan (日本, Nihon, Nippon) is a main character in the series Hetalia. He is the personification of Japan He is a short, slim man with short black hair, dark brown eyes, and is often depicted wearing a white naval uniform with black and gold accents and a katana sword often at his left hip. His first appearance in both the anime and the published manga shows him briefly wearing a more ornate version, with gold epaulets and frog clasps down in the front of the jacket. When he first appeared in the webcomic series, he wore a standard gray/black uniform until sometime after joining the Axis. He can be seen wearing this uniform during more formal occasions.\nIn some of Himaruya's official art, his hair is dark brown, and his eyes are a lighter brown.\nIn the anime, his height often fluctuates. Although he is one of the shorter characters, he can be seen standing at different heights, such as being anywhere from chest height to near eye level height when standing next to America. His eyes also began to change as the series progressed, becoming a lighter shade and not appearing as \"void\" as he originally appeared.\nOn occasion, Japan can be seen wearing glasses similar to America's but with a black frame instead of silver Personality\n\nA shy, quiet, and hard-working man, Japan does not know very much about the outside world, partially due to his self-isolation, and needs time to adjust to other people. He is very curious and interested in learning things from other nations. His distinct island customs may seem mysterious to others, although he finds them perfectly normal. He tends to have the behavior of an \"old man\" and was a hikikomori for a long time, having spent about 250 years in isolation and keeping contact only with Netherlands. Though he appears horrified at the idea of nudity or intimate contact, he has erotic woodcuts in his possession, which he tries to hide secretly between his non-erotic books. Japan also voiced his preference for 2D girls over 3D girls to England, Greece, and Francein one strip, hinting that he has an otaku side. His otaku side is further shown when he decides to buy a Shonen Jump magazine in his preparations for the New Year.\nJapan seems to be fond of food in general, very similar to China's fondness, his country's food in particular, as evidenced by his annoyance of having his salted salmon taken off Germany's diet plan. However, unlike China, Japan seemed willing to share recipes and ingredients of some dishes. He expressed dismay at the increase of the price of eggs due to a bad economy. He also had the urge to touch the Italy brothers' ahoges due to them reminding him of vegetables. It is said that cockroaches are one of the things that Japan hates the most, to the extent where he could cry over them. Although he appears relatively calm most of the time, it is suggested that his anger would be the \"scariest\". However, it is shown that it is hard for him to get that angry, as he is mostly able to only summon an \"unpleasant feeling\".\nHe loves animals, especially cats, and owns a white dog called Pochi that resembles an Akita or Shiba Inu, both Japanese breeds. He also eventually gets a rabbit and a guinea pig. He tends to have a weakness for things that are soft and fluffy.\nAlthough he has lost connection to his spiritual side that allowed him to see and communicate with the mystic spirits of his land, Japan is still very respectful towards spirits of the deceased and tries to prevent the other countries from doing anything that would upset them out of both respect and fear of what an angry spirit would do. Relationships\n\n* Germany: Japan and Germany get along relatively well and tend to be the only ones who adapt to the situation while joined together as the Axis Powers. Japan had known Germany for some time (as depicted in the original strips), although Germany said he can never tell what Japan has in mind. Japan seems to admire how put together Germany is and how productive and efficient he can be in his work.\n* Italy Veneziano: \n* \n*     The two became acquainted with each other as part of the Axis, though Italy had once had a dream where he met a younger Japan. Japan is shown to often be unnerved by Italy's \"shameless\" and unusual behavior, even as going as far as to order him to \"take responsibility\" and marry him after having been hugged and kissed. The two have been shown to have a mutual respect of each other's history and artwork and seem to be close friends although Japan is often caught off guard by Italy's affections and energetic nature.\n* America: \n* \n*     Japan is depicted to have a close friendship with America since the younger country got him to open his borders. Their relationship became better when Japan confided in America how he was worried about getting along with others and America used his \"table turning\" prank to instead assure Japan that he has nothing to worry about. While they get along quite well and visit each other's houses often, Japan is often confused by many things about America, such as his food intake and his fear of the supernatural; something that Japan has tried to help him overcome. Despite their close bond, Japan can become annoyed/angered by many of America's spontaneous outbursts and actions, especially when Japan is on the end of said actions, such as when America had tricked him into hosting a Christmas party. They share a love of technology and video games, and the two are often used to show the differences between their cultures.\n* China: \n* \n*    Chibihon (left) and China.  After being discovered by China as a small child, Japan was somewhat cared for by the older man, who taught him how to use kanji (which Japan used to create the hiragana alphabet). One day, Japan turned against China and attacked him with a katana, leaving a disfiguring scar on China's back. From this point, the two were enemies in war, and China despaired over how war had changed Japan. It can be inferred from a reference made about the Battle of Keichou that their relations were already starting to strain before the betrayal, combined with their differing views and Japan's vow to \"become stronger\". It is also to be noted that while China considered Japan a younger brother, Japan himself denied there being such a connection when asked.\n* England: The two nations are often shown to get along well. Despite not having much in common, Japan suggests they can be lonely together, as both of them do not have many friends. They also formed an alliance (Anglo-Japanese Alliance). They both appear to share a love for tea/tea ceremonies as they can often be seen enjoying tea together.\n* Russia: In the Lietuvis strips, Japan is shown to abhor Russia, his grudge stemming as far back as the Russo-Japanese War(although he defeated him, he wound up using up his life savings and became poor). After hearing of the alliance between Russia and Germany, Japan became distraught, claiming \"That man is a monster created by fallout from nuclear tests! He tears down buildings! He breathes fire!\". When Germany insists on continuing his relationship with Russia, Japan makes a resolution to dissolve himself and to become known as Minami-Centrair. This is loosely based off of an event that happened where the whole Japanese cabinet resigned due to the increasingly good relations between Russia and Germany.\nDuring Russia's visit to Germany's house, Japan made many attempts to get revenge:\n* Put caltrops on his seat, but failed as Russia noticed them and did not sit down.\n* Hid in the ceiling and attempted to harpoon him, only to miss and for Russia to shake him down, revealing his hiding place.\n* Placed an object (possibly an explosive or needle) in an ohagi in hopes that Russia would eat it, only for him to eat it and remain unaffected.\nMore Like Gamba Vs. Noroi shows that Russia was able to curse Japan and make him fall ill from simply staring at him, an allusion to when Japan was affected by the Great Kantou earthquake.\n* Osaka: \n* \n*     Japan is rather close to Osaka and gets along with quite well with him. He often relies on Osaka during diplomatic situations and is the Japanese prefecture he is most often seen with.\n\n* Greece: \n* \n*     The two nations have a very friendly relation, and multiple strips can be seen of them visiting each other or bonding over their mutual love of cats. Their relationship could be associated with the real-life Greco-Japan diplomatic relationship, which started in 1899. It is implied in Lazy Comic Country that they slept together when Japan stated he had no \"experience\", and Greece said he would fix that. He then woke up naked in bed with Greece, though Japan has denied that anything happened between them, believing that it was only a dream.\n* Korea: Japan and Korea appear to not get along very well. Japan is often on the end of Korea's hatred and false claims of stolen ideas and inventions. He is also very unnerved at Korea's many attempts to grab his chest with the claim it belongs to him.\n* Netherlands: When Japan had isolated himself from the world, he was revealed to have kept an open trade with Netherlands during that time as they had a companionship for many years before this. Japan is shown to be able to speak with Netherlands with relative ease.\n* Prussia: \n* \n*     While their only canonical meeting was in Prussia's Cleaning game, in which he helps him clean after Japan misinterpreted his demands as enthusiasm, Himaruya has stated that their relationship is near inseparable, and that it was something he wanted to show in Prussia's April Fools blog but did not get to. It is also notable, that Japan calls him \"Prussia-kun\", emphasizing this. Prussia possibly goes to Japan's house very often, as he said that he \"usually\" has tea and manjuu when he goes. When they finished cleaning, to show his gratitude, Japan gave him the cakes he had previously been asking for, however the work exhausted Prussia, so he could \"only\" eat 34. To date, their most notable anime interaction together is when Prussia asked Japan for help finding a pine tree for Christmas and Japan, not having any pine trees, decided to give Prussia his treasured bonsai tree.\n* Italy Romano: Though they have yet to meet in any of the actual strips, Himaruya has stated that they would both get along rather well and that Japan would refer to the other as \"Romano-kun\" (after initially \"-san\").\n* Taiwan: Taiwan has a great preference for Japan, much to China's dismay; this probably stems from the fact that, in reality, the island of Taiwan was annexed by the Japanese government, an event yet to be addressed in the comics. Japan's relationship towards her has yet to be addressed as well. In Hetalia: World☆Stars Chapter 42, it is stated that Taiwan finds the idea of giving chocolates to guys \"kawaii\", and it also shows her giving Valentine's chocolate to Japan, in which he accepts.\n* Turkey: Turkey seems to have a soft spot for Japan, and Japan, in turn, has mutual respect for him. In one strip, Turkey starts fighting with Greece when he sees the two together, presuming Greece wanted to take over Japan. Despite this, Japan had not stated whether he likes Turkey or Greece more. Turkey also threatened France on April Fools with \"Don't you dare try anything on Japan. Or else I'll invade you.\"\n\nAMERICA:\n\nAmerica (アメリカ, Amerika) is a main character in the series Hetalia. He is the personification of America short, golden blond hair and a cowlick which represents Nantucket.[4][5] He has blue eyes, and his glasses are said to represent the state of Texas.[4][6] When America initially appeared in the webcomic,[7] he was lacking the distinctive cowlick.\nIn blog notes from 2011,[8] Himaruya stated about America's physique that \"because he is still young, he isn't brawny even though he has muscles\". He also added that he tries drawing America with a lean body type.\nAmerica is a cheerful, energetic, yet somewhat conceited young man who is obsessed with heroes, justice, and freedom. He has the habit of sticking his nose into everyone else's business, which causes him to have difficulty making friends. He loves hamburgers and junk food, to the point of an obsession, and can even eat strange and inedible things due to inheriting England's sense of taste (or lack thereof). \nAmerica is also known for not being aware of how \"the atmosphere\" is when he is around others (which, at one point, he was told to read it), but it has been noted that it is not that he lacks the ability to \"assess the situation\", he simply chooses not to. His profile states that his hobbies are sports, games, and making movies, but he also enjoys watching movies specifically of the horror genre. On multiple occasions, he has forced Japan to watch movies that he calls \"Too freaking scary!\" because they are about ghosts and paranormal activity. Japan gives him zombie video games to come over his fear of ghosts. Furthermore, in the side-story Black Ships Have Come, in introducing himself to Japan, he states that his hobbies are \"quick-draw, archaeology, and adventures\" (which is translated to Japan as America's hobby being lechery). \nHe possesses an abnormal amount of strength, shown even as a child by easily swinging a full-grown buffalo around, and has been once seen running around dragging a heavy Rolls Royce that belong to England with one hand behind him for an hour in order to ask permission to borrow it. In the NotoSama 6 game, America was able to stop a car with the heel of his foot.\nAmerica is shown to be ignorant of the geography outside his own home, believing that maps of the United States constitute the \"world map\" and believes that he can simply get to other countries by car travel. He is shown becoming concerned about his weight in the strip Supersize You! and it is mentioned that he has invented strange diet machines as well as becoming obsessed with exercise which has caused him to become paranoid about his rising weight, as he is unaware of his building muscle. Aside from being afraid of ghosts, scary movies, and weighing scales, he also fears marmite. As America is obsessed with heroes and happy endings, he hopes that his future will be that way.\nThough he is friends with a space alien named Tony, he does not believe in England's magical friends, fairies, or unicorns, except on Halloween.\nRelationships\n\n\nCanada\nMain article: Canada\n\n\nAmerica's kind-hearted brother, who is frequently overshadowed by him and is constantly mistaken for him. While most other nations either ignore or don't notice Canada, America seems to have no trouble noticing Canada most of the time and is actually the one who spends the most time with Canada. The two have a typical sibling relationship, with America being the more dominate one and trying to get Canada to be tougher and Canada simply wanting to be recognized as himself.\nADVERTISEMENT\nChina\nMain article: China\nAmerica appears to have a decent relationship with China. He seems aware enough to know China is a capable fighter as he right away chose him to single handedly fight the Axis countries. When China falls into an angry fit and starts to become somewhat destructive, America is often the one to try to settle him, though this may possibly be due to America being the only one physically strong enough to restrain him.\nDavie\n\n\nDavie in the episode of the same name\nAs a young boy, America was friends with a boy named Davie who was searching for blue flowers. America joined his search, but he noticed how, as the years went by, Davie seemed to not remember who America was. Despite this treatment, America still viewed Davie as a close friend and continued to search for the flowers to make him happy. When seeing Davie had passed away, America appears to have taken it rather hard.\nADVERTISEMENT\nEngland\nMain article: England\nWhen America was young, he looked up to England and loved his cooking. However, their relationship became heavily strained when America started to become more independent and no longer needed Britain's support. Over the years after the Revolution, they appear to have re-established their bond, but both are still haunted by those events. They work well as part of the Allied Forces but many, if not all, of America's suggestions are met with disapproval and heavy criticism from England. While they often argue with one another, it is hinted they truly care about each other. America often teases England for acting like an \"old man\" and his love of tea, calling him \"Limey\" during arguments.\nRussia\nMain article: Russia\n\n\nAmerica and Russia in Together with Russia\nUnlike many other characters, America does not seem instantly afraid of Russia as he can often be seen speaking directly with him without any sign of nervousness. In fact, America once stated he thought Russia was cool after hearing he fought tanks with his hands.\nADVERTISEMENT\nJapan\nMain article: Japan\n\n\nAmerica has been close friends with Japan since he got him to open his borders but appears unaware of how he made Japan feel during that time. They stayed friends as they would visit each other's house often even as America struggled with Japan's culture, such as cute things being reported as news and the difference in size regarding food portions. America often tries to get Japan to loosen up but finds the task quite difficult since Japan is so set in his ways.

In Cleaning out the Storage[12] (or Episode 17 and Episode 20), when America sheepishly tells him he might be becoming a sentimental old man after being unable to throw away most of the storage's contents, Lithuania simply replies that he's just becoming an adult.\nIn the strip Happy Birthday![14] set in the mid-2000s,[Note 11] Lithuania returned to America's house to celebrate his birthday, fulfilling his long-time promise to hang out with him again once the times are brighter.[11]\nADVERTISEMENT\nMolossia\nMain article: Molossia\nAmerica is one of the few people who is aware of Molossia's true soft nature. Molossia acts calm, polite, and formal with him, and it is stated that he \"can't lift his head against America\". America does not seem to even be aware of his tough guy façade, expressing surprise when Molossia accidentally snapped at him (thinking America was Sealand). America exclaimed that Molossia used to be such a mild person, embarrassing Molossia as Sealand actually approached. It is possible the two are brothers due to Molossia being an American micronation.\nRelationships\n\n\nCanada\nMain article: Canada\n\n\nAmerica's kind-hearted brother, who is frequently overshadowed by him and is constantly mistaken for him. While most other nations either ignore or don't notice Canada, America seems to have no trouble noticing Canada most of the time and is actually the one who spends the most time with Canada. The two have a typical sibling relationship, with America being the more dominate one and trying to get Canada to be tougher and Canada simply wanting to be recognized as himself.\nADVERTISEMENT\nChina\nMain article: China\nAmerica appears to have a decent relationship with China. He seems aware enough to know China is a capable fighter as he right away chose him to single handedly fight the Axis countries. When China falls into an angry fit and starts to become somewhat destructive, America is often the one to try to settle him, though this may possibly be due to America being the only one physically strong enough to restrain him.\nDavie\n\n\nDavie in the episode of the same name\nAs a young boy, America was friends with a boy named Davie who was searching for blue flowers. America joined his search, but he noticed how, as the years went by, Davie seemed to not remember who America was. Despite this treatment, America still viewed Davie as a close friend and continued to search for the flowers to make him happy. When seeing Davie had passed away, America appears to have taken it rather hard.\nADVERTISEMENT\nEngland\nMain article: England\nWhen America was young, he looked up to England and loved his cooking. However, their relationship became heavily strained when America started to become more independent and no longer needed Britain's support. Over the years after the Revolution, they appear to have re-established their bond, but both are still haunted by those events. They work well as part of the Allied Forces but many, if not all, of America's suggestions are met with disapproval and heavy criticism from England. While they often argue with one another, it is hinted they truly care about each other. America often teases England for acting like an \"old man\" and his love of tea, calling him \"Limey\" during arguments.\nRussia\nMain article: Russia\n\n\nAmerica and Russia in Together with Russia\nUnlike many other characters, America does not seem instantly afraid of Russia as he can often be seen speaking directly with him without any sign of nervousness. In fact, America once stated he thought Russia was cool after hearing he fought tanks with his hands.\nADVERTISEMENT\nJapan\nMain article: Japan\n\n\nAmerica has been close friends with Japan since he got him to open his borders but appears unaware of how he made Japan feel during that time. They stayed friends as they would visit each other's house often even as America struggled with Japan's culture, such as cute things being reported as news and the difference in size regarding food portions. America often tries to get Japan to loosen up but finds the task quite difficult since Japan is so set in his ways. Although he occasionally teases Japan, America is aware of some of Japan's concerns and fears, the biggest one being that Japan was worried about not being able to make friends with others when he opened the country. While they are different in many ways, they do share several interests.\nADVERTISEMENT\nLithuania\nMain article: Lithuania\n\n\nLithuania and America in Industrial Revolution - Part 5\nDue to his economy plummeting after WWI, Lithuania lived with America[Note 10] for a brief period of time and worked for him as his housekeeper (events of the whole Lithuania's Out-Sourcing[9][10][11] series plus Cleaning out the Storage,[12] adapted in Episode 17 and Episode 20).\nAt first England regularly visited, as he doubted America's ability to treat Lithuania well, but the latter proved to be enjoying his new lifestyle and was well-received both by America himself, but also by the other occupants of the house (America's whale and Tony).

It is possible the two are brothers due to Molossia being an American micronation.\nRUSSIA:\n\nRussia (ロシア, Roshia) is a main character in the series Hetalia. He is the personification of Russia Russia is the tallest of the Allies, as well as the tallest of all the nations alongside Sweden. Russia wears a long, heavy tan coat, dark green pants, brown gloves, and a long tan or pink scarf; in the mini-drama CD included with his character album, he mentions to Japan that his scarf is a body part and therefore he cannot take it off. This, though, might just be an excuse so he will not have to take it off, seeing as how he didn't wear it as a small child before Ukraine gave it to him, and that in some artwork he is actually seen with it off. He has a round, childish face with a more prominent nose, and tends to carry around a bottle of vodka, a sunflower, or a faucet pipe. His hair is a light beige-blond, and his eyes are violet (purple), though they were initially colored blue in early color artwork by Hidekaz Himaruya.\n\nPersonality\n\nA large young man who is seemingly big-hearted and innocent, but in reality is cruel and terrifying. He comes off as intimidating without even saying a word, his gentle smile and disposition only intensifying the aura of dread which seems to constantly hang over him. In his profile in Hetalia: Axis Powers Volume 3, he is described as as gentle and naive, and not malicious, but frightening. Russia ends many of his sentences with 'da', the Russian word for 'yes', although in Japanese it is often used to confirm the topic of the sentence, as an informal form of 'desu', the ubiquitous form of 'to be'.\nHe has been tormented since his childhood, having seen many tragedies and wars. For example, General Winter haunts him every year, which has caused him to hate the cold. However, in the face of war, General Winter is his best ally. He dreams of one day living in a warm place surrounded by sunflowers. Whenever he thinks of either of his sisters, he becomes very depressed and sometimes worries that he is not as well liked as he believes.\nRelationships\n\n\nUkraine\nMain article: Ukraine\nRussia's older sister, who acted as mother to both him and Belarus. She was the one who gave Russia his scarf when they were children. Though she wants to be with him again, she either winds up running away at the chance due to the issues that have arisen between them (such as paying for gas), or due to being blocked from seeing him in some way (such as her boss prohibiting her from seeing him). In his own way, Russia also cares about her, describing her in quite fond terms in the manga.\n\nBelarus\nMain article: Belarus\nAlthough Belarus is Russia's sister, she has a deep, obsessive love for him, to the point of stalking him and wanting him to marry her, but Russia is terrified of her and does not return these feelings and often tries to stay clear of her. Despite the feelings Belarus has toward him, Russia does care about her but does not hide how he does not see her as anything more than his sister.\nChina\nMain article: China\n\n\nThough Russia and China had a close relationship throughout their history, China is very suspicious and fearful of him, especially after the Sino-Soviet Split. In return, Russia has been shown to stalk China, especially when disguised in a panda suit, and takes a very special interest in him. Despite this, they do get along well. \n\nFrance\nMain article: France\nFrance and Russia seem to get along well. Russia sees France as a person worth seeking advice from, while France seems to care about how Russia feels, often inquiring about how Russia seems happy after the gatherings of the Allied Forces. When Russia and other countries went to France's home, Russia seemed to be really happy when staying at France's house. It made France happy knowing that Russia was enjoying it.\nAmerica\nMain article: America\n\n\nAmerica and Russia in Together with Russia\nAs another one of the allies, Russia is often in America's company but appears to sometimes be at odds ends with the younger country. While Russia is mostly amused at many of America's antics, he also is not afraid to threaten him when he feels America is going too far, especially when America unintentionally insults Russian culture; although the threats do not often work since America is one of few who is not afraid of Russia. Russia has admitted to admiring America's free spirit and cocky side since he does not have to worry about formalities as much as the older countries but does look forward to being the one to crush America if he ever gets out of hand.\n\nLithuania\nMain article: Lithuania\nIn the past, Lithuania was Russia's subordinate and is not-too-subtly hinted to be a victim of his abuse; Lithuania is once shown wearing a maid costume with Russia lashing him with a whip in the While You Were Gone strip. In the present, Russia wishes that Lithuania, along with the rest of the world, was \"one with Russia\". When he visited America, who was taking care of Lithuania after WWI, he told America to be good to his 'ex'; but during the Great Depression, Lithuania returned to Russia's home. Once, Russia listened to Lithuania's dreams and went so far as to share his own of \"living in a warm place with sunflowers\"; soon after, Russia allowed Lithuania to fall asleep on his shoulder, though he replaced himself with a panda when Lithuania woke up the second time. It should be noted that Poland is not afraid of Russia; he actively defends Lithuania from Russia, despite the inherent threat.\nEstonia\nMain article: Estonia\nRussia is a terrifying figure to Estonia, though most of it is unintentional as he views Estonia as one of his closest friends. Similar to Lithuania and Latvia, Russia labels Estonia as a close friend and subordinate who does various tasks for Russia although Estonia will keep clear of his sight when possible to avoid any potential wrath being directed at him.\n\nLatvia\nMain article: Latvia\nAnother of his subordinates/friends, Russia is shown to be the most intimidating toward Latvia. When Latvia tries to do things he thinks Russia will approve of, Russia will usually press down on his head to show his displeasure; Latvia stating this method being the reason he's shorter than he possibly should be. Russia often asks several tasks of Latvia, a possible indication of his dependability of the smaller country and acknowledgement of Latvia's capabilities.\n* Poland: The two have argued with each other at least since the early 1600s, when Poland succeeded in capturing Moscow. Russia's revenge for this was taking part, together with Prussia and Austria, in the partitions of Poland. In 1939, Russia decided to partition Poland again, this time in conjunction with Germany. Their relationship was further soured by the years of post-war Soviet domination.\n\nCHINA:\n\nChina (中国, Chūgoku) is a main character in the series Hetalia. He is the personification of China He has dark hair tied back into a ponytail, and is often shown wearing a deep green Chinese military uniform with a red armband (though it was colored tan in one color spread). In other instances, he wears a green mandarin jacket with yellow pants, or a red one with white pants as shown in the Hetalia trading card game.\nHe has a scar on his back, a reminder of when Japan attacked him when they were younger, and a panda-shaped birthmark above his left buttock.\n\nPersonality\n\nOne of the apparent oldest nations, he happens to be extremely superstitious, but not at all religious. He tries to act as an older brother figure to some of the other Asian nations but often fails to be treated as one; possibly because those nations either know they are not related, do not see him as a brother figure, or don't acknowledge it. Somewhat like America, he likes to be in charge or have what he wants and tries to use his position as the oldest present nation to have that authority but does not get it to the level he wishes. He tends to end his sentences with the suffix \"-aru\" (a Japanese stereotype of Chinese accents), though sometimes he ends them with \"-ahen\" (opium) when conversing with England. He would only use \"aru\" when speaking Japanese. He has a companion named \"Shinatty-chan\", an old man in a Hello Kitty knockoff costume.\nHe is shown to be a lover of cuisine and is said to nag if food has a certain pattern of tastes. On one occasion in the WWII-set strips, he winds up arriving late to a meeting and explains that he always puts his food as his first priority. Unlike Japan, he does not wish to share recipes as he states they should stay in their country of origin.\nChina appears to have a love of cute things, particularly cartoon characters, Hello Kitty, and pandas, and he is frequently seen carrying one. He is also very artistic, as he is skilled at not only painting beautiful human beings full-scale, but also on something as small as a strand of hair (as seen in a strip in the web-comic); his artistic abilities don't, however, apply across the board, as his anime drawings are quite poor compared to Japan's and Korea's.\nOverall, he appears to be a cheerful character, though he can occasionally slip into moments of melancholy when reflecting on how much the world has changed in all the years he's been around. He's also been shown to be easily annoyed and prone to snapping, particularly when it comes to Korea. When he falls into a sort of anger induced fit, he can sometimes be destructive, and it will take America's enhanced strength to keep him contained\nRelationships\n\n* Russia: Despite the close relationship the two have had throughout their history, China is very suspicious and fearful of his northern neighbor, especially after the Sino-Soviet Split. In return, Russia has been shown to stalk China, especially when disguised in a panda suit, and takes a special interest in him.\n* America: China appears to be on relatively good terms with America although he can sometimes be annoyed by some of the younger countries antics.\n* England: Having been under Britain's control for a while, China was often annoyed and frustrated at having been treated like a servant and personal cook by England. Despite this, he did show some concern when Britain would get into fights with France but would also comment how he hoped the two would wipe each other out.\n* Japan: After discovering the new nation who appeared to be a child all on his own, China took him in and raised him as a student and younger sibling figure, though Japan denied any familial dynamic when asked about it. Japan eventually wound-up betraying China when he decided to initiate a war and attacked him with a katana (leaving a scar on his back). Since that war, the two remained on opposing sides as enemies, and China became distressed as to how war changed his \"brother\".\n* Hong Kong: Little has been revealed about their relationship. Hong Kong was raised by China before he became British territory for a hundred years. The two were eventually reunited when England's control ceased. In The Summary of the Plot until Now, China is seen telling Hong Kong to stop drawing explicit art, saying that he will have to mosaic it all out. Hong Kong replies, \"I'm kinda sorry. And I won't do it again. Maybe.\" Also, Hong Kong refers China as teacher (sensei, or xiānshēng in the English manga).\n* Korea: China is constantly annoyed by Korea's claims that he invented others' work, and his claim that both him and Japan should consider him to be their \"older brother\". Korea also happens to have an obsession with China, wanting to be acknowledged by him. He also once showed the belief that China's breasts belonged to him like Japan's.\n* Taiwan: Little has been revealed about their relationship. In Asian and Western Festivals, Taiwan, like Hong Kong, refers to China as 'teacher.' However, she also talks back to him frequently and does not mind his bossiness but does prefer Japan\n\nENGLAND:\nEngland (イギリス, Igirisu) is a main character in the series Hetalia. He is the personification of England, but he also made an agreement with the other UK nations that he would formally represent the United Kingdom as a whole at meetings and for other official purposes. \nEngland has messy, short blond hair and lime-green eyes. According to France, he's rather slender. In World War II, he dresses in a green dress military uniform, which consists of a green jacket, a brown Sam Browne Belt (the over-the-right-shoulder-and-waist-belt), green pants tucked into his boots, off-white shirt (sort of off-yellow in the manga and webcomic in the colored drawings), a tie that's a shade of green that's slightly darker than the rest of his uniform, and brown boots that almost come up to his knees. \nHimaruya has stated that he dresses smart casual most of the time, and as a punk when he's out for fun. His eyebrows are very prominent and bushy, despite that he apparently trims them. Himaruya mentions that his eyebrows were cursed into bushiness. They are a trait that is shared by his younger brother Sealand, as well as Australia, Hong Kong, and Wy. He also happens to be the same height as France.\nIn the original manga, his hair seemed to be golden blond, but in the first four seasons of the anime, it is bright yellow. The first four seasons of the anime also exaggerated the size of his eyebrows.\n\nPersonality\n\nEngland is a fanciful, blunt, obstinate former pirate who used to torment Spain. In modern times he claims to be a gentleman; however, he is cynical, sharp-tongued, prone to rough speech, and yearns for the golden years. He often uses British vocabulary, such as wanker, Yank (Yankee), bloody, twit, and git. He is noted for being horrible at cooking which has caused America, his former charge, to have \"bad\" taste in food.\n\n\nEpisode 66\nEngland is also, apparently, the \"king of losing things\", and France has described him as \"somehow extremely useless when it comes to matters not pertaining to himself or America\". He can be described as \"spacey\" because of his strong belief in magic, spirits, fairies, and other fantasy creatures. He has the ability to perform magic, such as spells and curses, and can also summon demons and other magical creatures. He is able to communicate with supernatural beings and is not limited to creatures from his homeland, being able to interact with youkai and spirits from Japanese folklore. He also happens to have fantasy friends, such as a flying bunny, unicorns, fairies, gnomes, and Captain Hook, but oddly enough he did not believe in Santa Claus until Finland came and brought them presents. Despite this, England often ridicules America's belief in aliens and Tony. \nAccording to the author's notes, England's interests include embroidery, craftsmanship, literature, rock music, and giving scathing criticisms to America's movies. He appears to be sharp-witted and surprisingly creative, although he seems to have rather bad luck. According to the author, he is rarely afraid of anything, and is rather interested in ghost stories, especially if he can use them to startle America. He also seems to be very stubborn and strong-willed and does not easily succumb to stress or pressure. He is shown to be startlingly mature at times and is very friendly with young or cute people and magical creatures. He also has a quite strong sense of responsibility and has been seen scolding France and America when they don't take things seriously. In some recent notes, the author has stated that England has a very rich and unlimited personality and that he can't decide whether England is a serious person or not.\nBecause of his status as an island nation, England is pretty distant and prefers to work alone. Perhaps because of this, he does not know how to express himself, leading to others often misunderstanding him. He is also depicted as being self-deprecating or tsundere. For example, despite his generally harsh behavior, he is definitely stated to have a softer side and seems to genuinely care for other nations. This is illustrated by the fact that he likes giving them advice, yet specifically mentions that he \"does not do it because he's worried about them\". Despite all this, he highly values his country's pride, and sometimes comes over as very arrogant. Despite his cynical, realistic view of the world, he is said to be a \"quite a romanticist before he goes to sleep.\" When drunk, he suddenly becomes very nostalgic, and the next morning, he'll pretend that nothing has happened. Also, every year when the Fourth of July comes around, his condition collapses.\nIn a blog post, England is depicted as not being able to swim to illustrate how British characters can't swim in movies.\nIt has been mentioned that England has brothers, one representing Scotland, and the others presumably Wales and Northern Ireland, who hate him and used to drive him away with stones and arrows when he was a child, and even went as far as to mail him curses\nRelationships\n\n* America: When the young America was discovered by Finland, England and France fought for the right to control him. England had wanted the title and claim so much that he had managed to sneak a quick meet with America and establish a small bond with him before America later chose to be with England. Since then, England took his role as America's guardian very seriously and did everything he could to care for the young nation while still having fun by scaring the young boy while dressed in Halloween costumes. However, their relationship became greatly strained when America sought his own independence and the two fought each other in the Revolution where England ultimately decided to give America his freedom as he did not wish to harm him. Though their relationship remained tense for several years afterwards, England still cared for America and looked out for him when he could. When intoxicated, England often makes references to being left heartbroken for centuries and it is heavily believed he means America no longer needing him.\nTheir relationship seemed to recover over the next several decades although England still often criticizes America's choices as both his own country and the self-proclaimed leader of the Allied Forces. \n* France: Despite the fact that both are members of the Allied forces, England and France have a deep-rooted historical rivalry. While they often have petty disagreements, they appear to respect each other and are quick to team up if a third party enters their argument. France once tried to marry England to save his country, even though neither of them really wanted it. In strips focusing on England's childhood, he is often picked on by a pre-teen France. On one occasion, he scoffs at England for not growing out his hair, but when England's does let his hair grow, it turns into a mess; France teases him, saying he'll cut it into a \"cool\" style only to cut it back to its original style. In Crossing Through the Year 1000, the two younger countries are fooled into believing that the world will end soon, and England agrees to let France pretend to have conquered him, since it is only for a little while. They later reminisce about their childhood when Japan makes the same mistake. In the movie \"Paint it White\" they said \"they have an undesirable relationship but indestructible and in their heart, they get along very well\".\n* Japan: England gets along well with Japan. Since they both discovered they did not have many friends and were somewhat lonely, they formed a friendship with one another. Although admitting he didn't know Japan very well at first, England admires his polite nature and mature behavior. England also enjoys the hot springs in Japan's home but is puzzled as to why Japan is not able to see the various mystical spirits of his country. He would also turn to Japan for help in decorating ceramics during the Industrial Revolution.\n* Sealand: Sealand is England's youngest brother, an abandoned naval fort who declared himself a nation at the end of WWII. The two always bicker because Sealand wants to be recognized as a full-fledged nation and often sneaks into conferences the other countries attend (such as the G8, in which Sealand pretended to be Canada). England is often annoyed by many of Sealand's attempts to be recognized as a nation by himself or another country. Despite being called \"Jerk England\" and being promised that he will one day bow to him, England does look out for Sealand.\n* Seychelles: In one of Seychelles' appearances in the manga, she is shown to be angry at England.\n* Canada: While having gained the right to control Canada when he was still young, England's treatment and attention toward him are similar of that of other nations in which he sometimes confuses Canada for America or isn't able to see him at all. When Canada was young, England is known to have had an easier time raising him than his brother and their relationship appears to have mainly stayed the same over the years.\n\nFRANCE: \nFrance (フランス, Furansu) is a main character in the series Hetalia. He is the personification of France. France has shoulder-length blond hair and blue eyes, and has a slight amount of facial hair which he believes makes him look like a \"big brother\" (it is said to represent the Gorges du Tarn, or Tarn Gorges). He wears a long blue coat and matching capelet, with red pants and brown boots. He is often depicted with a rose, which is also used to censor his genitals in his nude scenes. Personality\n\nFrance was once a large nation, but after Napoleon Bonaparte had died, he was no longer good in wars and instead attracted tourists to his country with his wine. He has an intense rivalry with England and loves to argue with him over trivial topics (one example is arguing over \"who is more perverted\"). His hobbies are manipulation activities, agriculture, fashion design, sketching, singing, and telephones, as well as wandering around the art museums and fashion boutiques of Paris. He likes places that are a little odd or chic.\nFrance is infatuated with most of the nations and is known to make blatant sexual comments at every opportunity and is very affectionate, often shown streaking or touching other nations inappropriately. He is attracted to beautiful things, which include men and women of any age (supported by statements such as \"Sure, I'll settle for boys! Boys are the best!\" and \"This onii-san here loves pure and innocent children like you.\" in response to a fan not knowing the meaning of the term \"tachi\") and maybe even some non-human beings. He said \"be gentle to the ladies and be gentle to the earth\" is his motto. He has admitted to being \"the dandiest among the dandies.\" He loves himself so much that he does not bother to remember English and considers French the \"language of love.\" In addition, he has referred to the others as insignificant characters.\nHe likes men who have exquisite bodies and give him a good impression, and has no preference in their personalities, so long as they are not loud like England. He said he would like cool but passionate women and might latch on best to someone who is good at singing. He also mentioned, in response to that the French supposedly fall in love due to other's body odors, that a faint, flowery scent could have him curled up in pleasure.\nHe stated that he is afraid of computers, Germany (and that he supposedly hates Germans in general, despite that he seems to get along with both brothers as of recent), Russia, Switzerland, whenever England is angry, and possibly Turkey. He stated this through a response to a fan, thus over the computer, and that doing so was bad enough for him. It seems that gardening relaxes him, and that he is not intimidated by other technologies, as he claimed to be playing \"Bokosuka\", a video game, with Germany and England. In response to another fan suggesting their lack of will to stand near him because of his overbearing scent, he stated that he only wore a little perfume.\nHe has referenced his old age several times, saying things like how his waist is always creaking, his back hurts, and that he had to surrender to sleep early in the day. Despite this, he gets upset when said that he is a grandpa as opposed to a big brother, and claims he is still young.\nRelationships\n\n\nAustria\nMain article: Austria\nNot much is known about these two's relationship, although in Big Brother France And The Frying Pan! France is seen outside Austria's window, ranting about how much he desires him, and talking about how good looking and talented Austria is. In the Christmas Rampage 2007strips, he also tricks Austria into stripping down in order to get Hungary a hat, yet this may have only been to make Prussia feel better. In Hetalia: World Series Episode 25 of the anime it is stated that France and Austria do not get along.\n\nEngland\nMain article: England\nDespite both being members of the Allied forces, England and France have a deep-rooted historical rivalry between them. While they can be seen to constantly argue with each other over the littlest things (like language and culture), they appear to have a level of respect for each other and are quick to team up with each other if a third party should enter the argument. France even tried to marry England to save his country once, though neither of them really wanted it. In strips focusing on England's childhood, he is often shown being picked on by a preteen France, who, on one occasion, scoffs at him for not growing his hair long - and when England's long hair turns out a mess, France teases him by saying he will cut it into a \"cool\" style - by cutting it back to the style he had before. In Crossing Through the Year 1000, the two younger countries are fooled into believing that the world will soon be over, and England agrees to let France pretend to have conquered him, since it is only for a little while. They later reminisce about their childhood when Japan makes the same mistake. In the movie Hetalia: Axis Powers: Paint it, White!, they said that \"they have an undesirable relationship, but indestructible in their heart; they get along very well\".\n\nGermany\nMain article: Germany\nThe state of their relationship depends on the specified time period however, generally, like England, Germany and France have a history of being one another's enemies, and as such the two do not seem to get along. In Let's Think About The G8 members, when Germany suggested France be removed from the group, he argued that they had been actually getting along well recently. In Kusogame, the two and America went to a maid cafe in Japan together. Both are set in the present day. During his April Fools site jacking, he seemed to know a fair amount about him, especially that he, like Italy, often ran around naked, thus he needed a different idea of what to do to him as he had been stripping the others (in the end he forced him into a maid cosplay and cat ears).\nMonaco\nMain article: Monaco\nMonaco is France's younger sister and is solely dependent on him for economic and diplomatic strength, as well as intervention in other affairs. Due to this, Monaco often accepts his various requests.\n\nItaly Veneziano\nMain article: Italy Veneziano\nFrance grew up with a small Chibitalia, but after Chibitalia returned from spending time with Roman Empire, France only wanted to control him. Italy refers to France as \"France nii-chan\" in strips set in both the past and present. Once Italy had grown into a teenager, he visited France again, resulting in the older man suddenly becoming enthusiastically attracted to him. During the visit, Italy saw the word \"intercourse\" in a book and asked him what the definition was. France replied by saying that intercourse is something you do with someone you like, then proceeded to ask \"So Italy, do you like me?\" (This was changed in the anime to France using body language to express the meaning of intercourse). France seems to have a soft spot for Italy, becoming frantic when England suggests they spread rumors about Italy and responding with \"I know he's kind of dumb, and he's weak and useless, but he's not a bad guy...\". He then proceeds to break down in tears, causing England to note that France, while always insulting Germany, never really brings himself to badmouth Italy.\n\nSpain\nMain article: Spain\nThe two get along rather well, having grown up and fought in wars together, though Spain remains oblivious to France's more perverted tendencies and cannot see why Romano hates him. It is said in production notes by Himaruya that their relationship is actually undesirable, yet the two remain inseparable. Recently, it seems Spain is aware that France is a bad influence on him, calling him \"despicable\" before defeating him in The Battle of Garigliano. with the help of his pet bull. France's first bird named Pierre is used for communication with him.\nRussia\nMain article: Russia\nRussia and France seem to get along well. Russia sees France as a person worth seeking advice from, while France seems to care about how Russia feels, often inquiring about how Russia seems happy after the gatherings of the Allied Forces. When Russia and other countries went to France's home, Russia seemed to be really happy when staying at France's house. It made France happy knowing that Russia was enjoying it.\n\nCANADA:\n\nCanada (カナダ, Kanada) is a secondary character in the series Hetalia. He is the personification of Canada.\n\nHis hair is wavy and depicted at times as being two-toned: A lighter blond on top, with more of an orange or darker blond shade on the bottom and tips. He has violet eyes, though they have also been colored blue in some of the official art featuring him. At least one figurine depicts him with Canada wears a heavy tan winter coat and pants as his military uniform, though when he's dressed casual, he is usually shown wearing a hoodie occasionally being depicted with the Canadian flag emblem on it, and a pair of jeans. Like his brother, Canada wears glasses, though he also sports a pair of goggles on his head at times (such as when wearing his uniform). The picture at the left depicts him in his younger days, presumably in his early teens.\nAlthough often drawn as shorter and smaller in fanart, official art makes it clear that he is either the same height/build as his brother, or very close to it as he can often be seen as slightly shorter and thinner than America and his hair being slightly longer and having the hair curl similar to Italy's although Canada's can be seen at different lengths throughout the series.\n\nPersonality\n\nIn contrast to his brother, Canada is shy, sensitive, and hates fighting. Despite this, he is often mistaken for his brother and has found himself in trouble for incidents that America has caused. When he's not being mistaken for his brother, all the other nations tend to forget that he exists. He is also passive aggressive and was once able to make America cry by arguing with him for over three hours and pointing out every single one of his faults. It is also implied in a chapter he loves maple syrup as he is shown offering America some for his coffee. Canada also has a fondness for ice cream, as it was shown in one chapter, he easily forgives Cuba's bashing when he offers the treat.\nWhen asked about his hobbies, Himaruya stated that apart from ice hockey and lacrosse, Canada also enjoys driving a tractor on his days off.[3]\nHe has a pet bear named Kumajirou, but even it forgets about him. In return, Canada often cannot ever remember his bear's exact name. Relationships\n\n\nAmerica\nMain article: America\n\n\nThe two brothers grew up separately as children, until England eventually took Canada on a trip to meet America, who wound up becoming bored with him and forgetting him shortly into their first meeting. In their adulthood, America is the source of his constant troubles, due to the fact that people get their identities mixed up and he gets blamed for fights that America started or is spoken to as America. However, during an argument, Canada was able to reduce him to tears when he went on a three-hour rant about all of his flaws. Despite this, the two seem to have a healthy relationship, as their arguing and America's frequent forgetting of him can merely come off as sibling rivalry. America tends to visit his house on occasion and is seen to be the one Canada spends the most time with.\n\nADVERTISEMENT\nCuba\nMain article: Cuba\nOne day, Cuba suddenly started beating up Canada from behind, mistaking him for America. Even when Canada tried to explain that he was not America, Cuba refused to listen. Later, Cuba snuck up on Canada again, scaring him. Instead of trying to attack him, however, Cuba had brought him ice cream as an apology, and invited him over to his house. Canada agreed, but when he arrived to visit, Cuba thought he was America again. Nowadays they seem to be quite good friends and have hung out together on multiple occasions. \nFrance\nMain article: France\nUnder France's care for a short while, Canada was fairly close to him until England won the right to raise him. They appear to have remained on good terms over the years as France is one of few who can instantly tell Canada apart from America\n\nKumajirō\n\n\nCanada has a polar bear named Kumajirō (くま次郎), who never remembers that his owner is named Canada. In return, Canada also forgets Kumajirō's name. They are almost never shown without the other; they appear to have been together since Canada's youth.[citation needed]Similarly to Hanatamago, Kumajirō barely grew in his lifetime due to his owner's immortality, and he is still a juvenile bear (despite Himaruya noting that his metabolism is \"higher than necessary\").[15]\nKumajirō is sentient much like many other creatures in Hetalia, and just like Iceland's Puffin, he has the ability to talk and be understood by his owner.\n\nSEALAND:\n\nSealand (シーランド, Shīrando) is a supporting character in the series Hetalia. He is the personification of Sealand, a micronation in the United Kingdom.\n\nHe has blond hair, blue eyes, and thick eyebrows much like England's. He wears a white sailor shirt with a blue collar, a blue necktie, a matching hat, and blue capri pants, as well as white knee-high socks and black Mary Jane shoes.\nOriginally, Sealand's eyebrows were drawn somewhat thinner, while his sailor necktie lacked its \"tails\", and he wore shorts instead of capris. His eyes were also originally colored green, giving him a further resemblance to a younger England.\nDue to the fact that he isn't considered an actual nation, none of the others take him very seriously and this is a great annoyance to him. Because he is not recognized as a country and majority of other nations do not \"notice\" him, Sealand often goes through various methods to get noticed and recognized. Sealand believes that someday he will become a huge empire that even his brother will bow down to.\nLike his fort, he is actually made of steel and can fire a \"Rocket Punch\" that he believes is super powerful (though in actuality he can only do so when dressed up in a kids' mecha costume). He also tends to end his sentences with \"desu yo\", which is meant to give him a very enthusiastic flare.\nRelationships\n\n\n\nEngland\nMain article: England\nSealand declared himself an independent country when England didn't want it back after the end of the war. The two always bicker because Sealand wants to be recognized as a nation but England refuses to do so. This does not stop Sealand from constantly trying to get England to recognize him, even going so far as to impersonate Canada to sneak into a meeting.\n\nIceland\nMain article: Iceland\nSealand first met him when Iceland was attempting to auction himself off on Ebay, but Iceland didn't understand what he meant when he wanted to become his friend due to their similarities, (as well as Sealand wanting to be referred to as \"senpai\" by Iceland.)\nLatvia\nMain article: Latvia\nThe two are good friends, in part due to their similarities of being small nations that don't get the respect that they want (though Latvia is an actual recognized nation in comparison to Sealand being a micronation). However, while Latvia attempts to act as a big brother to Sealand, his own insecurities get in the way, most notably his fear of Russia.\nSweden\nMain article: Sweden\n\n\nSweden and Sealand in What Italy Forgot\nAfter being auctioned off online, Sealand became his property and adoptive child (as Sweden was the only one who bid). The two appear to have a close relationship, though Sweden came up with the strange idea of a \"Dambolis\" in an attempt to make the TV-obsessed Sealand pay attention to him more.\n\nTurkish Republic of Northern Cyprus\nMain article: Turkish Republic of Northern Cyprus\nSealand attempts to make friends with TRNC and points out that they are both micronations, but TRNC blows him off and points out that while he is recognized by Turkey, Sealand is recognized by no one. Sealand begins to cry, and he later attacks TRNC in a fit of rage. After Sealand becomes friends with Wy and Seborga, TRNC is seen watching them from a distance.\nWy\nMain article: Wy\nSealand has tried to make friends with the Australian micronation of Wy, based on perceived similarities. Wy quickly pointed out that unlike Sealand, she is recognized, as Wy's declaration of independence was accepted by the mayor of the surrounding township in 2004, though Sealand is still very friendly to Wy as her status as a micronation\n\nROMANO:\nItaly Romano (イタリア・ロマーノ, Itaria Romāno), also known as just Romano, is a secondary character in the series Hetalia. Though he is most often referred to just as Romano by other characters and by Himaruya, he is as equally a personification of Italy as his younger brother, Italy Veneziano, and specifically is the personification of the southern part of Italy (南イタリア, Minamiitaria).\n\nRomano has dark brown hair and has more of an olive complexion than his younger brother in earlier artwork, but there is a tan tone to his skin. His eyes were originally green, but became colored hazel or dark brown in most of the later colored art. Like his brother, he has a wild long curl that acts as his erogenous zone, though it rests on the right side of his head, as opposed to the left. In most artwork and merchandise, he is shown to wear a khaki uniform in a different style than Italy's (and more similar to Spain's), with three-quarter-length sleeves. But in the published manga and anime, he instead wears a virtually identical uniform. In his very first appearance in the webcomic, Romano's shirt and belt were colored white, but were later shaded in dark. The actual color of the uniform is unknown due to it only appearing in black-and-white art, though fanworks often depict it as being a lighter blue. Personality\n\nRomano is friendly and kind to women but is strict and less social towards men. In particular, he is openly rude to both Germany and France. Despite appearing to be tougher than his younger brother, he is just as cowardly and ineffectual, if not more. Though he is not very skilled with his hands, it is said that he is a good pickpocket. He also has a habit of speaking in profanity, particularly the words \"bastard\" and \"damnit\".\n\nRelationships\n\n\nGermany\nMain article: Germany\nUnlike his brother, Romano hates Germany and cannot stand to see him and Italy together. He refers to Germany as a \"potato bastard\" and \"macho potato\".\nRomano had attempted to get revenge on a few occasions, but failed each time:\n* Tried to charge at Germany, but slipped on a banana peel and skinned his arm (Italy's Big Brother, Webcomic).\n* Pulled the pin off a \"Red Devil\" grenade, but threw the pin instead of the actual grenade, which he held in his mouth (Italy's Big Brother).\n* Threatened to throw tomatoes at Germany and \"rip every muscle\" off of his body, but wound up frightened by France (Meet My Big Brother!, Hetalia: Axis Powers volume 1).\n* Attempted to embarrass Germany by holding up a fake mustache (to make him look like he was sporting one), but wound up making himself look like he wore the mustache instead (Good Luck! Big Brother!, Hetalia: Axis Powers volume 1).\nIt is suggested that he might hate Germans in general, seeing that he thought one as a danger when he was a kid and got scolded by Spain because he believed the German would attack Spain. A line in Italy's Big Brother also reveals that his stereotype of Germans is that they are all \"uncivilized country bumpkins with bad physiology\". When Germany noted that Italy happened to have Germanic blood as well, it caused Romano to go into a rage and attempt to charge at him (only for the above banana incident to occur).\n\nADVERTISEMENT\nItaly Veneziano\nMain article: Italy Veneziano\nThe two brothers grew up knowing of each other, but they never actually met face to face. Veneziano eventually went off to live with their grandfather for some time, while Romano stayed behind. After Grandpa Rome had died and Italy came back, Romano and the other boys became bullies to him. The two were separated again at the end of the Italian War, when Italy was claimed by the Holy Roman Empire and Austria, while Romano was sent to live with Spain because he was too difficult to deal with.\nIn the present day, the two brothers do not get along very well; Romano occasionally refuses to acknowledge his brother's existence, though Italy is more than eager to be around his older brother. As a child, Romano often felt jealous and inferior to Italy, due to the younger brother inheriting their grandfather's talent for art, while he could barely draw. He also felt that his brother took after their grandfather in appearance more. Despite this though, he is shown to have at least a subconscious care for him, becoming upset when his brother implies he does not admire him, and sharing a bed with him. Usually when it is hinted that he cares about Italy though, something happens that angers him and he instantly reverts back.\nADVERTISEMENT\nPrussia\nMain article: Prussia\nRomano does not appear to treat Prussia with the same level of contempt as he does with Germany, but he does dislike him.\nPrussia and Romano often encountered each other when they were younger, and Romano wanted to fight him, but found him too scary and instead kept his distance and attacked him verbally.\nDuring the 2011 Christmas Livestream, a video clip was played where Prussia saw Romano working and was surprised that he was a hard worker. When he realized Romano was not wearing shoes, Prussia asked if he didn't have enough money to buy shoes, and Romano responded that he uses his money for more important things than shoes. Romano was not openly hostile towards Prussia in this exchange, but after the group was done reacting to the video clip, Romano commented that he felt gloomy from how many times he has been stuck associating with Prussia.\nJapan\nMain article: Japan\nThough they have to met only briefly in an earlier \"strip\" (in which they did not actually interact beyond introductions and Japan's pondering of the brothers' curls [1]), Himaruya has stated that they would both get along rather well and that Japan would refer to the other as \"Romano-kun\" (after initially \"-san\").\nADVERTISEMENT\nSpain\nMain article: Spain\nBecause he and Spain have spent a lot of time together, Romano has assimilated his culture, customs, religion, and his love for tomatoes. While Spain often acts affectionately towards him, Romano tends to treat him rather coldly because he believes that Spain just wants his grandfather's inheritance. Deep down, he does care about Spain, though he rarely shows it openly; he seems to become extremely jealous when Spain is with someone else. When Spain caught a cold, Romano increases imports from Spain (despite having a cold himself) and overcomes his weakness to the mafia (even though he usually bends to their will).\nIn his youth, Romano would often jump on Spain or headbutt him in the stomach to wake him up. This caused Spain to have a nightmare where an adult Romano jumped on him and \"crushed his vital regions\".\n\nSPAIN:\n\nSpain (スペイン, Supein) is a secondary character in the series Hetalia. He is the personification of Spain\n\nHe has somewhat curly brown hair, green eyes, lightly tanned skin, and wears a khaki-colored uniform (like the one used by the \"Regulares\", a Spanish elite unit operating in North Africa until the 60s, and now in Ceuta and Melilla) with 3/4-length sleeves. Personality\n\n\nA cheerful country bumpkin, Spain was once a super powerful nation and traveler until he was tormented by England and Netherlands, beaten by a younger America, and thrown into war and poverty. Despite all his hardships, he remained optimistic and passionate. The source of his constant happiness is the sunshine that cast over his land.\nAlthough he means well, he happens to come off as insensitive and clueless at times because of his inability to \"read the atmosphere\" (it is said that he does not even try to assess the situation). Spain speaks in the Osaka-ben variant of the Kansaidialect in the Japanese version.\nHe is also very fond of children, especially the Italy brothers and had once taken care of Romano. It was shown when he was younger that his ultimate dream is for both of them to live with him.\nSpain is often shown spending time with either Romano, Prussia, or France.\nRelationships\n\n\n\nADVERTISEMENT\nAustria\nMain article: Austria\nThe two were married with the union of their countries in the House of Hapsburg in 1519. They remained married and unified under the Hapsburgs until the War of Spanish Succession(1700-1714)\nThe two remained in close contact as allies until the War of the Austrian Succession, in which Spain allied himself with France and Prussia. Spain would then ally himself with Austria again in the Seven Years War.\nBelgium\nMain article: Belgium\nTheir true relationship is as of yet unknown, but Belgium did spend some time in Spain's house, and appears to be fond of a younger Romano.\nFrance\nMain article: France\nThe two get along rather well, having grown up and fought in wars together, though Spain remains oblivious to France's more perverted tendencies and cannot see why Romano hates him. It is said in production notes by Himaruya that their relationship is actually undesirable, yet the two remain inseparable. France has shown that he has wanted Romano to be a French territory and had fought Spain over four times for him (losing each time). Recently, it seems Spain is aware that France is a bad influence on him, calling him \"despicable\" before defeating him in The Battle of Garigliano with the help of his pet bull. France's first bird named Pierre is used for communication with him.\nADVERTISEMENT\nNetherlands\nMain article: Netherlands\nNetherlands became a member of Spain's household when the Burgundian-Hapsburgs acquired the crown of Spain. Their relationship was very difficult to the point where Spain believed Netherlands hated him. For example, Netherlands refused to eat with Spain. Eventually, he left and later had a war with Spain to be recognized as an independent country.\nThey spent a lot of time together during Christmas of 2010, with Spain going to Amsterdam to enjoy Christmas with Netherlands and Netherlands continually telling him to go home. When the shadow figures appeared, Netherlands told Spain to go away, took on a fighting position, and tried to protect him. When he fell, Spain attempted to help him, getting himself a weapon and saying \"Leave (my) Netherlands alone!\", but he also failed. Later when Christmas is over, a half-naked Spain is shown sleeping on top of Netherlands. Netherlands only comment was \"What the hell? This sucks\".\nPortugal\nMain article: Portugal\nPortugal looks very similar to Spain except that he has a ponytail and a mole under his eye. Otherwise, they look just the same, which is explained as they share the same lineage. Spain is also shown to be a bit restless whenever Portugal is around, as he's having a higher chance for his embarrassing secrets or down-achievements to be told by Portugal to another person, for example, Romano.\nDespite their turbulent history, which Spain admits it's complicated, they appear to chat easily. Though Portugal enjoys teasing Spain about his loss of power, claiming to make him feel good since they are both in similar situations as former empires. They both remark how different they are from each other, denying their identical physical appearances and becoming startled when Seychelles can't tell them apart, said similarities being attributed to the fact they share the same ancestor, hence making them related in some way. In the fanon, they are often named the Iberian Brothers. \nADVERTISEMENT\nItaly Romano\nMain article: Italy Romano\nSpain is rather affectionate to Romano, this affection being described as \"strange\" in character notes. As a result of having lived alongside him from the time he was a young and under his rule, Romano takes off some of his culture and customs, and both share a deep love for tomatoes.\nAfter defeating France in the 'Batalla del Garellano', Spain took control over Romano and made him his henchman (since he was the self-proclaimed 'boss' of his colonies). In the years of having him under his rule Spain often had difficulty trying to get Romano to do chores and when he did, he often ended up breaking things, making him wish that he could have acquired Italy Veneziano instead, due to the younger brother's obedience and \"cuteness\". But after Spain's attempt to trade him for his younger brother, Spain couldn't help feeling guilty for wanting to trade Romano. After Spain's attempt to trade him for his younger brother, Romano became more bitter and jealous around him. Spain then tried to spoil him in an attempt to show Romano that he still liked him, even in comparison with his brother. Spain’s opinion is that Romano should acknowledge him as his “boss,\" which Romano refuses to call him.\nEven though he found Romano's frequent bed-wetting and harsh attitude to be annoying, Spain remained affectionate to him, and was determined to save him when he was captured by Turkey and from France's frequent attempts to take Romano from him. Even though their kingdom wound up thrown into debt due to all the money spent on Romano's protection, Spain refused to let go of him since he was 'special' to him, even after being scolded several times by his boss. Seeing this made Romano realise how much Spain truly cared for him, and after (very shyly) thanking Spain for rescuing him, Spain changed his view on him as well, saying he 'also had a cute side after all' and that 'it would be so cute if he was so honest all the time'. After that their relationship improved a bit, but Romano also grew more jealous around Spain. In one strip, Romano tried to attack a German soldier who was talking to Spain, mistaking him for an enemy, which resulted in Spain being mad at him for being rude to a visitor. Known by his inability to read the mood, Spain didn't know about Romano's true intentions until he asked him directly, which frustrated Romano to no end. Romano's tendency to blush and turn completely red whenever he was embarrassed or angry as a kid often made Spain comment on how much he looked like a tomato. Unaware of its effects on Romano, Spain also had the habit of pulling on and twirling Romano's curl, causing Romano to headbutt him and call him a pervert.\nAt one point Spain spent all his money on buying Chibi-Romano new clothes, while he himself was dressed in rags. Then in the same strip we're shown Romano (adult) reading a Spanish history book in the present, about how Spain spent lots of money in Romano back at the time. However, while Romano is trying to say something that could be interpreted as an attempt to say thank you, in the end Spain doesn't get what Romano wants to say and says that 'he used to spend all his money without thinking in the past, but now he knows the importance of saving money'. This results in a very annoyed Romano, and the Netherlands stating that \"he was always like this\".\nRomano is rarely seen spending time with any other characters besides Spain and his own brother (and sometimes Belgium). Spain is one of the few characters to be on good terms with Romano, as they often appear spending time together. Whenever he gets in trouble he calls Spain for help, like the time he was captured by England in WW2, or when he ran out of pasta, and he refused to accept anyone's food but Spain's. Even though he retains his harsh attitude throughout the series, in one strip he tried to save Spain from dying from a severe cold (caused by the great economic difficulties Spain was going through), and went as far as fighting the mafia (which he fears and always obeys) and trying to buy more imports from Spain, even though he was still dealing with his own cold (for economic reasons as well). During the Halloween Event 2011, Spain called Romano cute several times despite his appearance and unsettling aura and stated that \"he's so cute I just can't help but want to protect him\". Spain also proposes to Romano after same-sex marriage became legalized in his country in 2005, who answered that he wanted a minimum of three meals a day and a nap with pasta. Spain took the answer as a rejection and felt depressed that nobody wanted to marry him.\nADVERTISEMENT\nItaly Veneziano\nMain article: Italy Veneziano\nSpain is shown to have an easy-going relationship with Italy since he was young. He often expressed how he thought Italy was cuter, kinder, and more obedient than Romano when they were young. He often shared food and advice with Italy.\nMonaco\nMain article: Monaco\nMonaco was a member of Spain's household in the fifteenth and sixteenth centuries. Spain kept doing her unwanted favors, though, and their relationship eventually grew sour.\n\nPRUSSIA:\n\nPrussia (プロイセン, Puroisen) is a secondary character in the series Hetalia. He is the personification of Prussia and East Germany, and he was born as the personification of the Teutonic Knights. Prussia is a young man of average height with a skinny build, light-colored hair and red eyes, though he first appeared with dark blond hair in early colored media. His hair varies between platinum blond, white, or silver, while his eyes have also been depicted as pink or a violet hue. His face and haircut have been described as asymmetrical.[12]\nPersonality\n\nPrussia will do anything to become strong, and has an arrogant attitude, believing that he is the best and still more \"awesome\" than others, although he hasn't really succeeded at his goal. Although he proclaims to like being alone, he is seen crying when he sees Hungary and Austria together in the Christmas Rampage 2007 strips. It was stated that this loneliness stemmed from that he felt like an enclave rather than an actual nation. Germany once said that Prussia \"knows little about common sense.\" Deep down, it is said that his true nature is that of a punctual and diligent soldier, though his bad manners (especially during his \"transition period\") mask it.\nHe is very loyal to his leaders, and had a special attachment to Frederich II, known to him as \"Old Fritz\". He continues to hope that Old Fritz will watch over him and that he'll be proud. It is said though, that he tends to become rather depressed if Fritz is brought up due to this attachment.\nIt is revealed that he had kept diaries since he was formed, which led to him having an entire library of journals. Almost all of them start with passages that read \"I'm so cool/I was so cool today\". He also seems to be fond of cute things, and buys things such as stuffed pandas, as seen on his April Fools Blog. In addition, on his blog, he says he's fond of sleeping, fighting, and eating, his fondness for eating being displayed in his going to England to eat lunch, him \"only accepting\" France's ability to cook well, and his desire to get food from Italy and Austria with his brother in their Counting Sheep CD.\nHe seems to have a tendency to sneeze and find himself bored with or distracted from tasks, especially reading, although he claimed to be \"a wiz at cleaning\" and also seemed to be good at gardening, so it's possible his skills show when he is less distracted. In his and Germany's Counting Sheep CD, after sneezing and growing bored of counting, Germany insists he continue to count, causing him to continue, also raising the possibility that he can continue to do things despite his own odds (boredom) if encouraged\nRelationships\n\n\nAustria\nMain article: Austria\nPrussia takes pleasure in annoying and humiliating Austria in whatever way he can, and fought against him in wars in the past, seizing Silesia for himself in the War Of Austrian Succession (the strip of which contained Austria saying the infamous \"vital regions\" line).\nOn numerous occasions, he finds himself alone and crying. Prussia will mention that he is happy alone unlike a certain \"stupid aristocrat\". In the Christmas Strips, Prussia has to tell himself that he would rather be alone than with others \"because clustering is for the weak. Yeah, like that stupid aristocr--\". Prussia often speaks negatively of Austria.\nIn the present day while living with his brother, Prussia freeloads off of Austria and has a habit of stalking him. Also, in Prussia's blog, it is implied that either Prussia and Austria are both living together in Germany's house, and that Austria hangs around the brothers very often to sort out their messes and spends a large fraction of his time with them. In the Maria Theresa arc of the anime, Prussia often attempted to make Austria beg for mercy during the battle. He also mentioned wanting a painter to come and paint Austria's face after he had lost the first battle, so that his failure could be etched into history.\nADVERTISEMENT\nGermany\nMain article: Germany\n\n\nGermany and Prussia in Brother! We Are...!!\nFrom the moment Germany was born, Prussia took care of him like he did with Holy Roman Empire. World☆Stars Chapter 12[11] shows Prussia stepping in as an older brother figure to Germany after his creation as the German Empire, seeking to protect him from adversities and help him grow into a strong, unified German nation (which was Prussia's lifelong wish).\nAlthough both brothers consider themselves to be completely different from each other (which is true in some aspects), other characters like Austria, Italy Veneziano and Japan note a lot of similarities in their behaviors, as shown in The Life of the Great Man, the Awesome Me which adapts Awesome Me's Biography,[28] and Brother! We Are...!! adapting the strip of the same name.[26]\nGermany is mostly annoyed by his brother's boisterous attitude and his tendency to buy strange things, as seen in the April Fools' blog event and drama CD. Prussia refers to their familial tie as \"unsavory\". It's revealed, in his and Germany's Counting Sheep CD, that he does find himself wanting to do \"big brother\" things for him, sometimes.\nADVERTISEMENT\nHoly Roman Empire\nMain article: Holy Roman Empire\nIn Awesome Me's Biography,[24][25] Prussia is said to stand out as a big brother figure to HRE among the barely unified German states. Not much interaction is shown between Prussia and HRE until the latter's end of life, where Prussia takes him in and entertains him while HRE is bedridden.[22][23] Although World☆Stars Chapter 187 clearly states that HRE's death is near because of his effective dissolution, it is unknown what exactly happened to him and whether or not Prussia bore witness to it.\nPrussia holds the same fondness and pride for Germany, whomst in recent years has been confirmed to be the same person as HRE despite not having retained any of his memories.\nHungary\nMain article: Hungary\n\n\nPrussia and Hungary in 53.5\nThe two have had a rivalry since childhood, when Hungary believed herself to be a boy (as did Prussia). It is said that she loathes Prussia due to him making fun of her hardships since that time. She is also known to hit him with her frying pan when she catches him bothering Austria and had appeared at his bedside fully armed with a spear to threaten him to give back Silesia after he had seized it.\nPrussia had also noticeably groped Hungary when they were children, though he was unaware of her true gender at the time and simply thought he'd grabbed a weak spot. After realizing the truth, he became disgusted and upset that he might have committed a sin and was utterly horrified by his actions. His realization led him to confessing his \"sin\" in a chapel and begging God for forgiveness.\nADVERTISEMENT\nItaly Veneziano\nMain article: Italy Veneziano\nPrussia is shown to like Veneziano very much, often referring to him as Ita-chan (a cutesy nickname) in Japanese, considering him cute[32][17] and even going as far as to directly ask him on a date, though Veneziano was oblivious to his question.[33] On other occasions, Prussia has been happy about going to Veneziano's place for dinner, stated that Veneziano can stay at his place for as long as he wants, been very excited whenever Veneziano commented on his blog (even telling Germany that \"one comment from Veneziano is worth more than 100 comments from other people\"), made funny faces to make Veneziano laugh, and taken many photos of Veneziano because of how cute he thinks he is.[32][34] In Prussia's Hatafutte Parade, he even says Italy, lieb' dich! (\"Italy, I love you\").\nWhen choosing Veneziano's route in Cleaning Mr. Prussia, it is said that Prussia has \"clear ulterior motives\". Upon arriving, Prussia finds Veneziano sleeping (something typical of him at 9AM on a Sunday), and begins to stroke his head, saying that it felt like the Risorgimento. As he does so, he daydreams about himself and Veneziano together on a gondola in Venice, with Veneziano dressed as a gondolier, and this is labeled as a \"Happy End\". A bonus illustration then depicts what appears to be Veneziano waking up as Prussia watches him.[35]\nThough they get along very well, Veneziano doesn't seem to return any romantic feelings towards Prussia. During the Christmas 2011 Event, he commented with embarrassment that Prussia was \"quite a free spirit\" in his youth, and he recalled hearing Prussia boasting about himself a lot, which doesn't impress him. Veneziano also added that Prussia hasn't changed since then.[36]\nADVERTISEMENT\nItaly Romano\nMain article: Italy Romano\nRomano does not appear to treat Prussia with the same level of contempt as he does with Germany, but he does dislike him.\nPrussia and Romano often encountered each other when they were younger, and Romano wanted to fight him, but found him too scary and instead kept his distance and attacked him verbally.\nDuring the 2011 Christmas Livestream, a video clip was played where Prussia saw Romano working and was surprised that he was a hard worker. When he realized Romano was not wearing shoes, Prussia asked if he didn't have enough money to buy shoes, and Romano responded that he uses his money for more important things than shoes. Romano was not openly hostile towards Prussia in this exchange, but after the group was done reacting to the video clip, Romano commented that he felt gloomy from how many times he has been stuck associating with Prussia.\nJapan\nMain article: Japan\n\n\nWhile their only canonical meeting was in Prussia's Cleaning game, in which he helps him clean after Japan misinterpreted his demands as enthusiasm, Himaruya has stated that their relationship is near inseparable, and that it was something he wanted to show in Prussia's April Fools blog but didn't get to. It's also notable, that Japan calls him \"Prussia-kun\", emphasizing this. Prussia possibly goes to Japan's house very often, as he said that he \"usually\" has tea and manjuu when he goes. When they finished cleaning, to show his gratitude, Japan gave him the cakes he had previously been asking for, however the work exhausted Prussia, so he could \"only\" eat 34. To date, their most notable anime interaction together is when Prussia asked Japan for help finding a pine tree for Christmas and Japan, not having any pine trees, decided to give Prussia his treasured bonsai tree; something that Prussia found endearing enough that he wasn't able to take the bonsai.\nAlso stated in the game, was Prussia's enjoyment of reading manga (he had attempted to learn to make his own, but he sneezed and abandoned the project), something he possibly got from befriending Japan.\nADVERTISEMENT\nKnights Templar\nWIP.\nLithuania\nMain article: Lithuania\n\n\nLithuania being attacked by Prussia (Teutonic Knights) in Episode 92\nBecause of his unpleasant past encounters with Prussia as the Teutonic Knights, Lithuania holds a stubborn grudge against him that doesn't seem to falter even centuries later.[17] Prussia's forceful attempts at converting Lithuania to Christianity seems to be the only reason for that grudge, even though it is ironic considering he then peacefully converted when allying with Poland against their common enemy.\nStill, Lithuania was shown to act in a very cold and even condescending[30] manner around Prussia during their time living together at Russia's mansion, even when Prussia tried helping Lithuania with paperwork in good faith. Prussia never adresses the tension (nor the reason behind it) directly, but he obviously feels hurt by Lithuania's behavior.\nIn a strip from the Halloween 2013/2014 Event,[37] he pretends to have forgotten Lithuania's and Poland's names, but still ends up helping Lithuania with finding Poland, further proving that the centuries-old grudge is one-sided.\nADVERTISEMENT\nPoland\nMain article: Poland\n\n\nPoland and Prussia (Teutonic Knights) in Episode 53\nPoland and Prussia have known each other since the Northern Crusades. After being kicked out by Hungary due to his power-hungry behavior (after he tried to claim Burzenland for himself), Prussia ends up working for Poland.[5] Extremely preoccupied by Christian dogmas at the time, Prussia wants to find out Poland's gender to ensure he's not a girl.[Note 13] This leads to an absurd situation (recalled during the Christmas 2011 Event[38]) where Prussia asks a confused Poland to touch his genitals for confirmation, which Poland strongly declines, affirming he's not a girl. Prussia ends up chasing Poland around insistently, under Hungary's bewildered watch. Hungary herself also wound up on the receiving end of Prussia's invasive questions as he was also thrown off by her androgynous looks.[5]\nTheir relationship would end up strained with the Teutonic Knights aiming to claim more and more of the land they were appointed to defend against, and the two started to argue with each other.[39]Those tensions grew steadily and culminated at the Battle of Grunwald, where Prussia nearly defeated Poland and having threatened to kill him until Lithuania intervened and defeated the Teutonic Knights after having pretended to flee. Much later, Prussia (now an independent kingdom) played a major role in the Partitions of Poland.[Note 14]\nIt is unclear what their feelings towards one another are in the present day. In a strip from the Halloween 2013/2014 Event,[40] he pretends to have forgotten Lithuania's and Poland's names, but still ends up helping Lithuania with finding Poland.\n\nAUSTRIA:\n\nAustria (オーストリア, Osutoria) is a secondary character in the series Hetalia. He is the personification of Austria Austria has violet eyes and somewhat wavy brown hair, with a wild strand that represents Mariazell. He wears glasses, a long navy blue coat with a white jabot, and black pants (colored tan in some earlier artwork). He also has a mole on the lower left of his face, which acts as an erogenous zone for him.\nWhen he was younger (as seen in Chibitalia), he wore a deep fuchsia jacket and purple pants. In the anime version of the storyline, his jacket was changed to blue and his pants were changed to black, to match the clothing he wears as an adult.\n\nPersonality\n\n\nHe is usually described as a well-spoken, young master type, who was initially aloof until he was saddled with too many burdens. He is a reliable country that approaches things with sober seriousness. He gives higher priority to his hobbies rather than his work and is more optimistic and quiet in comparison to Germany who is more serious and work-oriented, though he does seem to have a temper as shown when he is seen yelling or acting paranoid.\nHis interests include the fine arts, music (the piano in particular), and cake. In the first drama CD, it is revealed he is not an outdoors person and is afraid of marine animals (such as crabs and starfish). \nDespite being musically talented, he has no sense of direction and frequently gets lost; this is based on a joke Himaruya heard about an Austrian salesperson getting lost in his own storehouse.\nHe seems to be camera shy, or at least in regards to events which are broadcast worldwide and his embarrassment was strong enough that he may have begun to sing. When Germany was going to take a picture, he immediately hid his face. He also remarked his inability to \"skillfully put together a pose\" as Germany was. In response to his being upset about the broadcasting of the event, Germany remarked that he hadn't read the invitation properly.\nAustria is apparently out of shape, walks rather slow, and has a very indoor lifestyle which has caused this, all of which he admits to, though Hungary said that he was different when he was younger. Austria warned others to take care to avoid such a thing happening to them. Because he's out of shape, he tires quite easily.\nHe's very reliant on Germany, though he's trying to lessen his dependence. However it seems to stem from his long history of ordering Germany around.\nRelationships\n\n\n\nGermany\nMain article: Germany\nAustria and Germany were allied in both World Wars and lived together for a while during that time. He approves of and supports lots of Germany’s ideas so he may look like one of the helper countries, but in reality the level of his dependency is pretty high.\nSo high that when Germany catches a little cold, Austria goes straight to high fever and eventually collapses, and so he doesn’t have much of a choice than to take good care of himself.\nHe gives Germany advice in his confusion over Italy in the Valentines Day strips. They appear to be very close, although he annoys Germany at times with his behavior.\nIt is confirmed in the Hetalia Collezione that Austria is his and Prussia's cousin.\nHungary\nMain article: Hungary\nThe two still have a very close relationship, despite the dissolution of their alliance and marriage. The marriage was mostly a valuable war alliance, as the two promised that they would support each other in war. As children, he was often beaten up and defeated by her when it came to wars, but when they got older, she was forced into becoming his servant while they were both under the rule of Holy Roman Empire.\nThroughout the anime and manga, the two share many moments that suggest that they still have feelings for one another. For example, in the Buon San Valentino strips, Hungary is given a gift from an anonymous source, but when described the man has many of the same facial features that Austria has. She also seems to enjoy watching him play the piano. When Germany was sent to forcibly annex Austria, Hungary tried to stop him, asking him \"to please consider his feelings.\"\n\nItaly\nMain article: Italy Veneziano\n\n\nItaly Veneziano hugging Austria in the anime. \n\n\nChibitalia painting a mustache over Austria's portrait. \nChibitalia spent a lot of time at Austria's house where he acted as a maid. Much to Austria's disbelief, Chibitalia had painted a moustache over his portrait and so Austria forbade him from having pasta for dinner. Austria was one of the many people to believe Italy was a girl until one day his voice finally broke, with Austria thinking he \"had a feeling this would happen for some reason.\"\nPrussia\nMain article: Prussia\nPrussia takes pleasure in annoying and humiliating him in whatever ways he can, and had fought against him in wars in the past, most notably seizing Silesia for himself in the War Of Austrian Succession.\nOn numerous occasions when he finds himself alone and crying, Prussia will mention that he is happy alone unlike a certain \"stupid aristocrat\". In the Christmas Strips, Prussia has to tell himself that he rather be alone than be with others \"because clustering is for the weak. Yeah, like that stupid aristocr--\". Prussia often talks about Austria in a negative tone. In the Maria Theresa arc of the anime, Prussia seems to be hell-bent on humiliating Austria, and shows, on multiple occasions throughout the episodes, a strong desire to see Austria beg for his mercy during the battles. He went so far as to hire a painter to paint Austria's face in defeat so that his failure would forever be a part of history.\nIn the present day while living with his brother, Prussia also freeloads off of Austria and has a habit of stalking him. Also, in Prussia's blog, it is implied that either Prussia and Austria are both living together in Germany's house, or that Austria associates with the brothers very often to sort out their messes. \nIt is confirmed in the Hetalia Collezione that Austria is his and Germany's cousin.\n\nSpain\nMain article: Spain\nThey were united under the same king and ruling dynasty in 1519, when Charles I of Spain became Holy Roman Emperor. Austria and Spain remained married and closely allied within the House of Hapsburg until the end of the War of the Spanish Succession, dated 1700-1714.\nSpain would later ally himself with France and Prussia in the War of the Austrian Succession, but side with Austria again in the Seven Years' War.\nSwitzerland\nMain article: Switzerland\n\n\nSwitzerland and Austria \nA former childhood friend of Austria's. In their youth, they were close, but Austria was weak and unable to fight as well as Switzerland expected him to and had to be bailed out when he'd get beaten up in war.\nThey eventually grew apart, and Switzerland denies that the two of them ever used to be friends. Although he did, Switzerland still never forgot the times when they were.\nIt is possible they are family due to the fact that in a request comic during the Christmas 2011 event, Germania claimed that Switzerland and Austria were both his family members. But it is unknown if they are actually related, and it was not stated in the Hetalia Collezione.\n\nHUNGARY: Hungary (ハンガリー, Hangarī) is a secondary character in the series Hetalia. She is the personification of Hungary\nHungary has long, light-brown hair and green eyes. Her most common outfit, seen in merchandise and official artwork, is a green military uniform and matching beret. In the actual series, she can usually be seen in traditional Hungarian folk dress.\nThe flower she wears in her hair, according to notes by Himaruya, is meant to represent Lake Balaton. It has been alternatively colored pink and yellow in the official artwork Personality\n\n\nIn her past, Hungary was once a nomadic girl who loved to chase after horses on the plains, and was a rather tomboyish child, to the point where she believed herself to be a boy until hitting puberty. She is described as being both a reliable older sister type (mainly to Belgium and Italy) and the manliest character in the series plus scary when angered. She likes hot springs and singing scary songs, she is said to possess bad luck.\nShe also appears to be a fujoshi (literal: \"rotten woman,\" a woman who is a yaoi fan and Himaruya has cited her behavior as such as Hungary being a \"Mecca for gay videos\"[citation needed]. This feeling was supported by her blushing, drooling, and being conflicted about saving Austria from France when he was touching his nipples and stripping him (as well as staring at and taking pictures of the partially undressed Austria after finally saving him) excitedly filming Austria being forced to strip until she realized it was Prussia doing it (then citing that it was \"too much\"--the punchline being just what was too much--before throwing her frying pan at Prussia and having France strip him as well) and her cooing over Holy Roman Empire attempting to cover up a wet and naked Chibitalia after he'd escaped bathing with her[citation needed].\nHungary is also shown to be quite religious, as illustrated in Episode 59, when she received a vision from God to hit France on the head with a pan.  She's shown to enjoy cute things, such as tamagochis and has expressed her love of cute boys. In Hetaween 2011 she dresses up as a prince and convinces Austria to dress up as her princess, wanting to sweep him off his feet. This could be a reference to her tomboyish attitude. Despite her brash and at times battle-hungry behavior, she's also not afraid to show her other side, if her gentleness and preference towards wearing dresses when not in uniform are anything to go by. In addition, she is also the one who dressed up Chibitalia with maid dresses.\nShe does not get along well with Romania, to the point where their relationship is described as being like that of a cat and a dog. It is also said that due to her dislike of Romanians, she would name her dogs after them.\nMongolia is said to have bullied Hungary in her youth, along with the Ottoman Empire (Turkey). Hungary also despises Prussia as he taunted her in the past.\n\nRelationships\n\n\n\nAustria\nMain article: Austria\nHungary's former husband and close friend, yet the status of their relationship is going very well. Throughout the anime and manga, the two share many moments that suggest that they have feelings for one another. For example, in the Buon San Valentino strips, Hungary is given a gift from an anonymous source, but when described the man has many of the same facial features that Austria has. In the anime, she seems to enjoy hearing him play his piano, close to his side. Also, during the third season, Hungary seems worried that Germany wants to annex Austria, and she asks him \"to please consider his feelings.\" Although the relationship has been confirmed, they both seem to care deeply about the other's well-being and happiness. Many believe that the marriage was mostly a valuable war alliance and the two supported each other in war. The two have a very close relationship, despite the dissolution of their alliance and marriage. \nAs children, Austria was often beaten up and defeated by Hungary when it came to wars, but when they got older, she became his servant while they were both under the rule of the Holy Roman Empire.\n\nADVERTISEMENT\nGermany\nMain article: Germany\nTheir relationship has yet to be shown in much detail; however, they seem familiar with one another. Hungary affectionately refers to Germany as Germany-chan and, despite being stated to have trouble speaking with older women on any non-work-related topic, he seems to be able to speak with her with less trouble, though whether this is because they were discussing Austria and Prussia (who give Germany a lot of trouble and thus might be seen as \"work\" in his eyes) or because they're familiar with one another is unknown. When Germany received and began carrying out his orders to take over Austria, she was very upset saying that he should \"please consider his feelings,\" though Austria didn't mind at all in the end.\nItaly\nMain article: Italy Veneziano\nWhen they were both under Austria's rule, she and Italy were very close, and she saw herself as his older sister figure. Apparently, she was one of the few characters who knew his true gender at that time. Hungary had also dressed Chibitalia in gowns and girlish outfits, pursuing the gender confusion even more among others.\n\n\nChibitalia and Hungary getting along as maids. \n\nADVERTISEMENT\nPrussia\nMain article: Prussia\nShe and Prussia were rivals as children. Prussia and Hungary herself both believed Hungary to be male. Since he made fun of her problems during that time, Hungary is seen to hate him and often hits him with her frying pan whenever she sees the opportunity to. Notably, Prussia is seen to have groped her as a child, unaware of her true gender and thinking that he was simply grabbing a weak spot, though he was utterly horrified by his actions. They are also seen as a pairing in some of the fandom. It is a fairly popular pairing in the series.\nRomania\nMain article: Romania\nAn early biography of Hungary describes her and Romania's relationship as resembling that between a cat and dog. They have a strong rivalry and openly dislike each other, with Hungary naming her dogs after him. At the Christmas 2011 event, Hungary silently glares at Romania when he appears. Hungary locks Romania out of the nations' 2013 Halloween party upon hearing he is close by, promising to open the door when she can muster a smile.\n\nADVERTISEMENT\nUkraine and Liechtenstein\nMain article: Ukraine\nMain article: Liechtenstein\nThe three of them seem to be good friends. In Volume 4's \"A History of Interesting Clothes\", they had a friendly chat about the dressing costumes in their countries as well as others', Hungary requesting Ukraine try on the \"bold\" Cretan dress that had no covering for the breasts, to Ukraine's embarrassment. They refer to one another using nicknames (\"Hun,\" \"Liechten,\" and \"Uku,\" the beginning of Ukraine in Japanese) rather than their full names\nBelarus:\n\nBelarus (ベラルーシ, Berarūshi) is a supporting character in the series Hetalia. She is the personification of Belarus. Belarus has waist-length, straight platinum blonde hair with bangs parted in the middle, and indigo eyes. In \"Meeting of the World\"[5] as well as early concept art,[6] her hair used to be light brown.\nShe is described on multiple accounts as being very pretty (in \"Russia's Big and Little Sister\"[7]adapted in Episode 42 as well as in Hetalia☆Collezione[8]), and shown to be physically strong. Personality\n\n\nBelarus is an intimidating and harsh young woman who can be very hostile and violent at times, exhibiting some mental instability. She has a very strong heart and an equally strong will, but those often manifest in negative ways.[10] She is noted to be vulgar, and she will say things like \"penis\" and \"shit\" in a calm way.[11][12] She is very smart and is able to remember a lot of \"useless trivia\", such as the name of Paris Hilton's dog and that rodents can be taught to use tools, however, she says not to use that knowledge for crime, before mentioning that \"the degu rodent is kind of cute...\". She enjoys prank calling Lithuania and \"silent calling\" (calling, but then not speaking once the phone's been picked up) Poland, indicating that she is also rather mischievous. Belarus has also said she likes to watch the sun rise, and she calls 8 AM \"torture\" and 4 PM \"the devil\".[3]\nThough she often comes across as harsh and hostile, Belarus is also shown to be quite thoughtful and melancholic, and she does not seem to think highly of herself. She thinks that \"humans are a series of misfortunes and hardships\" and they're constantly filled with misfortune and make others suffer without realizing it by constantly striving for eternal happiness. She seems to value her boss because she knows she will eventually die, so she must value the things she has now before death takes them from her. She has also said that Louis Gruenberg should have been kinder to her, and that she should have done better back during the era of the Soviet Union. Additionally, her loneliness has led her to questioned how much longer she will live, and her reason for existence. She once said that the shadow on the moon was, according to Netherlands or Denmark (she couldn't recall which,) someone who had been imprisoned there for some crime. She wondered how long he had to stare at the earth powerlessly until he was forgiven, and she thought that she wasn't much better off than him. She is also aware of her government's issues and harmful behavior, once saying that at 9 AM she would \"go watch some state-run TV to be poisoned by propaganda\".[3]She has also said that \"as long as we have something to eat, it's fine\" and works hard on her agriculture due to her bad economy.[13]\nBelarus enjoys the occult, is a good fortune teller, and has the ability to see ghosts. She is confused about ghosts that are only their head or hand, saying that they must not be confident enough to only exist as their balls. She also takes haunted photos, however when she did so in America, she was bothered by how conspicuous the American ghosts were. Additionally, she likes rock music, thinks her traditional clothes are cute, and enjoys reading the Soviet newspaper Pravda. She is good gymnastics and acrobatics, and she has said that the gymnasium is her pride. Belarus also seems to be good at singing, as she claims that her voice is supreme. She seems to have an odd fondness for cardboard and cardboard boxes; according to her, she's packing for something. Belarus also enjoys monotonous activities like stacking blocks into rows of threes and knocking them down repeatedly.[3]\nShe is shown to space out often, for example spending so much time staring at random objects (her ribbon, \"France's thing,\" \"a cat's thing,\" cardboard, flea remover, or a herring's eyes) that the sun went down, or spending three hours staring at the static of a TV. According to her diary, she has fantasized about Dmitri Smirnov and made a fansite for both her brother and her boss. It has been implied that she can speak Polish, as upon being asked by Latvia, she said that the higher ups in Belarus used to speak Polish.[3] Relationships\n\n\n\nRussia\nMain article: Russia\n\n\nA younger Belarus clinging to Russia \nBelarus' older brother. Her love for him is as obsessive as it is unrequited, though much to Russia's dismay, the latter does not deter her. She is shown to stalk after him, as well as stick by his side to intimidate those who she feels might stand in their way. In one episode, all the countries were shown to have left the Soviet Union and left Russia by himself. Belarus came back and said to Russia In Episode 43, Ukraine and Belarus were one of the final countries to leave the Soviet Union, though Belarus returned shortly after. She explained to Russia that it didn't sit right with her to leave her big brother. Russia expressed gratitude, but also noted that it was a little creepy.\nIn the Hetalia desktop buddies created by Himaruya, Belarus' obsession for Russia is elaborated on even more, with her stating her desire to get suggestive photos of her brother. Despite their relation, Belarus had made repeated requests and demands for Russia to marry her, even going so far as to attempt to break his door down in Episode 42 when he was hiding from her.\nADVERTISEMENT\nUkraine\nMain article: Ukraine\nBelarus's older sister, who took care of both her and Russia when they were younger. However, Belarus can be seen glaring at Ukraine in some of Himaruya's pictures, possibly out of jealousy of Russia's attention towards her. Even when they were little, when Ukraine gave Russia her scarf, Belarus tried to resist Russia's acceptance of the scarf.\nIt has also been shown that Belarus seems to scare Ukraine, though Ukraine is still worried about her. In their character song, Carrot and Stick, it is implied they have a rivalry obtaining Russia's affections, as Belarus calls Ukraine \"unforgiving\", \"irredeemable\", and \"inexcusable\", to which Ukraine apologies for being a \"bewitching older sister\".\nHowever, there are also implications that Belarus has an attachment to Ukraine. In her appearance in the Sealand and Latvia desktop mascots, a possible entry of her diary she'll read for you involves her spending three hours massaging Ukraine's breasts or stretching her headband. It also contained an entry in which she went through her garbage bags. There was also an intimidating shadow resembling Belarus creeping up behind Ukraine when Italy tried flirting with her.\nADVERTISEMENT\nLithuania\nMain article: Lithuania\n\n\nLithuania talking about his date with Belarus in Episode 37\nLithuania and Belarus have known each other since childhood, as evidenced by a scrapped strip[14] from Comic Diary Summary Part 11. Adult Lithuania has shown to have a crush on her dating back to the interwar period at least[Note 10] (going by Pact of Steel[15] and Episode 37 where he says to have a date planned with her). A strip from Comic Diary Summary Part 11[16] also shows Lithuania returning home from a (only 3 minutes long) date with Belarus, to Poland's annoyance then shock as he notices that not only are all of Lithuania's fingers broken, but that Belarus is still there actively breaking them further. Lithuania remains oblivious, claiming that he just has the ability to bend his fingers to such extremes.\nIn Japanese, Lithuania refers to Belarus as Belarus-chan, a cutesy way of addressing her.\nManhandling Lithuania has been a habit of hers since they were young,[14] but she doesn't seem to feel genuine hatred towards him, if the dates she accepted are anything to go by. Aside from physical harm, she doesn't act anymore menacingly towards Lithuania than she does with others (however Lithuania definitely sees her through rose-colored glasses, refusing to acknowledge the way she treats him). In a strip from the Halloween 2013/2014 Event,[17][18] she even offers Lithuania her help to save Poland from Russia's rough cuddling (by substituting herself for Poland).\nMany fans tend to speculate that Belarus acted that way because she feels jealous of Lithuania's privileged position in Russia's household, but all interactions quoted above disprove it. Given her general tendency to intimidate others, it is more likely that Lithuania's blinding crush merely makes him an easy target for her. It is also worth noting that in spite of their dates, Himaruya confirmed Lithuania's feelings to be unrequited.[19]\nADVERTISEMENT\nAmerica\nMain article: America\nDue to her older brother Russia's disliking towards America, Belarus also despises America, even though it is shown she is beginning to tolerate him. In the \"Christmas 2011 Event\", everyone questions why America is late to the party and Belarus growls that he is probably too enthusiastic about the setup and is too exhausted to come.\nEven so, America becomes a sort of big brother figure to her after she attempts to separate herself from her brother after the fall of the Soviet Union. However, she tired him out a lot in doing so, and he tried to get rid of her, just like Russia did. She is annoyed by American ghosts (as they are very conspicuous) and going to America's house, though she seems to enjoy the famous haunted mansion, the Winchester Mystery House, and went there with Russia despite rather not going.\nLatvia\nMain article: Latvia\nBelarus and Latvia talked a little bit in the Sealandand Latvia mascots. One of her diary's possible entries included her dropping potatoes on Latvia's house, or having \"played around with\" him, though it also could have been replaced with several other names. He was a bit surprised when Belarus began to get philosophical, wondering why she was alive and how much longer she would be that way. They also shared mutual marvel at the shape of Belarus' National Library, talked about various stories about the moon, and spoke about the Mary Celeste. During Halloween, as Belarusian children do not go door to door to ask for candy, Belarus told Latvia, as she apparently did every year, that she had no candy at her house for him.\nADVERTISEMENT\nPoland\nMain article: Poland\nWhile their relationship has yet to be shown in the comics, Belarus talks about him a few times in the Sealand and Latvia mascots and he was listed in the relationship section of her face chart along with Lithuania, both of which are said to be annoying. She asked why those cat shit bastards Poland and Lithuania often bother her (though the word used can also mean be concerned about or care about), to which Latvia said they were at that age, the word used to mean adult age or marriageable age. One of her diary entries' options was that she made silent calls to Poland's house in the evening. Latvia also asked if Belarus could speak Polish at one time, however she said it was only the officials who could and that she'd always spoken Belarusian.\n\nBelgium:\n\nBelgium (ベルギー, Berugī) is a supporting character in the series Hetalia. She is the personification of Belgium. Belgium is a woman of average height with short, wavy brown hair (blonde in early designs) held back with a ribbon headband, and light green eyes. She also has a distinctive cat-like mouth.\nThe ribbon in her hair was exclusively colored green for a long time, but in recent media she is shown to wear many different ribbons (including one with the stripes of the Belgian tricolor).\nThough her original official hair color was stated to be blonde,[citation needed] a 2009 chibi headshot sketch depicted her with pale brown hair[citation needed] and in all subsequent colored drawings, her hair is brown. Personality\n\n\nIt was revealed in Christmas Rampage '07 that she is the younger sister of Netherlands and the older sister of Luxembourg.\nIt is said that although she is mature and has a cheerful personality, she doesn't stand out much due to the flashy people she is surrounded by. She loves making waffles. A note in a later character chart by Himaruya indicates that she speaks in a Shiga dialect. Earlier notes on the character describe her as a tsukkomi (\"straight man\") type, and state that she is often pushed around by her siblings.\nIn her profile in the third manga volume, she is described as being \"a diligent, kind, meddlesome and friendly older sister! Although her features stand out, her clothes are simple and not very conspicuous!\". And that she \"Loves Gourmet and tasty snacks!\" Also, in a separate translation it is stated that she is \"a cheerful, good-natured, but slightly nosy older sister. And scary when she's mad!\"\nIt appears that she is quite willing to help complete strangers, not even pausing to consider their intentions. Relationships\n\n\n\nNetherlands\nMain article: Netherlands\nBelgium is Netherlands' younger sister; however, it's said that they don't resemble one another much. When both were under the control of Spain, Netherlands fought to become independent and went to war with his sister, as she remained with Spain. He later attempted to reconcile with her to form the United Kingdom of the Netherlands. However, they'd been separated for 200 years, and their differences were too great, with Netherlands working mainly on trade and being protestant, leaning towards England, and Belgium being very agricultural and Catholic, influenced by France. As a result, Belgium declared her independence 15 years later.\nIn Volume 4, Belgium said that her brother was handsome and tall and that she thought he was cool. However, his stinginess with money was the only thing she saw as a flaw in his personality. When Netherlands bought herring from Lithuania and Poland, he used cheap salt to pickle it and sell it at a higher price. Both then and when he sold his own weapons to Spain, whom he was fighting against, after saying \"money makes the world go round\" Belgium was seen around the corner, crying, telling him not to be mean. According to Belgium, Netherlands reads romantic poems. When they saw Santa, she asked if he thought he would be willing to visit them. He said that he didn't mind asking and promised to bring her Santa. Sometime later he gave her a sheet of paper that said, \"I'll bring you a real Santa today.\" She was excited that he kept his promise, however both she and Romano were startled when he showed up, dressed as a reindeer, carrying Spain dressed as Santa (the joke being that the Netherlands' and Belgium's Santa comes from Spain.) Though she had been happily telling Romano that her brother wasn't such a miser because he was going to do that for her, it said at the bottom of the page that he had invested 0 euros in it.\nNetherlands' rabbit, in a conversation with Pochi-kun, said that, before Netherlands left for Japan, he'd had a fight with Belgium. As a result, he felt lonely, and thus was being a busybody, likely to keep his mind off of it.\nBelgium, Spain, Netherlands, and Romano dressed as a group for Halloween, following the theme of Little Red Riding Hood. When Netherlands began to attack Spain for not working hard enough (in response to his comment about Luxembourg being a very busy person,) she was somewhat saddened.\nDuring Christmas, a comic of Belgium and Netherlands as children was requested. Netherlands immediately made an agitated face before the video started. Belgium visited Netherlands who was, at the time, without an influential leader or much of a wealth difference among his people, in contrast to Belgium who was richer than he was. She invited him over and, when he came, she told him to take it easy. He was startled and impressed by her luxurious lifestyle, gaping throughout the trip, especially when they were eating, presented with something he considered a high-class meal. She then expressed concern at that he wasn't eating. A shot of them both as adults had Belgium worrying that she was at fault for her brother's stinginess, however Netherlands insisted that he'd always been that way.\n\nItaly Romano\nMain article: Italy Romano\nAs a child, Italy Romano had a crush on the older Belgium. She found him cute and, as he showed off his ability to ask for a kiss in Spanish while tugging on her dress, she offered to give him a kiss on the cheek. He became flustered, stumbled over his words, and said he was actually fine, to which Belgium said he was quite innocent and apologized for teasing, offering sweets as compensation. She was depicted as serving young Romano when he was demanding food from Spain in his diary, seeming to find his demandingness amusing. In Boss CD, when they make churros, Romano says that he will get 80% of them, while Spain and Belgium get 10% each. He also gets incredibly flustered and tongue-tied when Belgium praises him for his hard work, even getting flustered to the point of meekness and admitting he hadn't worked much at all. Young Romano would refer to her by name and also said nyarome, possibly a cute version of yamero, Japanese for \"you bastard\" and other such things, something Romano calls everyone. However, he was said to have been taught by men, hence why he was using such a rude term. However, she wasn't bothered and found him cute, nonetheless.\nIn modern times, they seem to have a good relationship, and she still finds him cute in the present. She happily shared with him that Netherlands kept his promise to bring her Santa, though they were both shocked that he simply brought her Spain.\nBelgium, Spain, Netherlands, and Romano dressed as a group for Halloween, following the theme of Little Red Riding Hood.\n\nSpain\nMain article: Spain\nBelgium and Spain seem to get along well, in contrast to his and Netherlands' relationship. While she was his territory, she lived as a maid at his house. It was noted that Spain built museums and art galleries in countries it controlled, and Spain and Belgium were shown holding and admiring canvases. Furthermore, when Spain put a large portion of his money into getting Romano nice clothes, she worried over him, saying that he had to do something about his own clothes, as well, which had become tattered. In the Boss CD, Spain helps Belgium with laundry and with Romano. They enjoyed friendly meals together, as well, including the churros that he and Romano made together. When her brother left to become independent, she not only stayed with Spain, but ended up having to fight her brother.\nWhen she asked her brother to bring her Santa, he brought her Spain (as the Dutch and Belgian Santa is Spanish) instead.\nBelgium, Spain, Netherlands, and Romano dressed as a group for Halloween, following the theme of Little Red Riding Hood.\n\nLuxembourg\nMain article: Luxembourg\nLuxembourg is Belgium's younger brother. In an old note, it was stated that he, along with Netherlands, often pushes her around. He refers to her as \"Big sis\", which subsequent blog post states he uses as a term of endearment for her. During the Halloween 2011 event, Belgium was sad that he couldn't come to America's Halloween party with them because he had too much work to do and his boss wouldn't allow him to go until it was done. However, she, Spain, Romano, and Netherlands took a picture of themselves and sent it to him, saying that he had to come and dress up with them next time, which he agreed to do. His promise was kept, and he made his debut in the Halloween 2013 event, where he charges at her in a costume, proud that he had scared her, but causing Belgium to faint. On a character relationship chart, Luxembourg states that Belgium always takes good care of him, and she sees him as a \"reliable little brother.\"\nDuring the Christmas 2011 event, due to a request for Luxembourg's scrapped design to speak, Belgium had a nightmare about him, causing her to mumble in her sleep that she didn't know who he was and that he wasn't the Luxembourg she knew. Overhearing her, he became concerned and asked if she was alright.\n\nUkraine\nMain article: Ukraine\nBelgium and Ukraine have only briefly interacted in one sketch and one comic, but they (and the female nations in general) are shown to be good friends. During the 2011 Halloween Event, Himaruya posted a comic including most of the female nations who existed at the time, where they were all having a meeting together to reflect on the year. In the meeting, Belgium said that she felt bad that she didn't try a little harder in the past year. Ukraine responded and says Belgium did try hard, and then went on to say she herself thought she spent too much time in front of the camera. In a 2013 blog post, Himaruya posted a drawing including Belgium, Belarus, Ukraine, and Hungary, in which Belgium was worried about looking plain compared to her flashy neighbors. Ukraine then advised her to \"just show off [her] breasts\" and make worldwide news.\n\nBulgaria: Bulgaria (ブルガリア, Burugaria) is a supporting character in the series Hetalia. He is the personification of Bulgaria Bulgaria has short hair with bangs that are parted in the middle. He has fair skin and turquoise is confirmed to be the colour of his eyes in an official coloured sketch of him. He appears to have two uniforms; his uniform is shown as gray-green in the anime. The other uniform is in a light black colour with buttoned sleeves. He wears a leather belt to hang his holster and ammo pouch, alongside white gloves.\nHe resembles the main character from the anime Attack on Titan and has been drawn in a Survey Corps jacket because of this\n\nPersonality\n\n\nHe is a member of the Axis Powers yet states that he has always had a desire to hit Italy with a stick. Bulgaria is quiet unless he's with people he's close to. He is also shown to be thrifty and works hard, but seems to struggle in the EU. He also rather has an unnatural obsession with yoghurt as he can transform into a yoghurt fairy. In World Stars Chapter 347, he says that he rarely gets praised so when he does get it, his back will become itchy.\nBulgaria shakes his head to mean 'Yes' and nods to say 'No', which often causes confusion from the others\n\nRelationships\n\n\n\nCzechia\nMain article: Czechia\nBulgaria's a part of Eastern Europe alongside Czechia. In a manga chapter about Czechia and Slovakia arguing after their freedom from Russia, the matter escalates to a certain point where they want to be separated. Bulgaria walks by and chimes that the two are getting a divorce, they soon become annoyed and deny it to be true.\n\nADVERTISEMENT\nRomania\nMain article: Romania\nRomania and Bulgaria are shown to be best friends who often push each other around jokingly. The two are often grouped together (along with Hungary) in the European Union, and together make an appearance in the Halloween 2013 Event, Christmas 2011 Event, and Halloween 2011 Event. Bulgaria is one of the few to have courage on breaking apart Romania's constant and vengeance fights with Hungary. Bulgaria is very talkative with Romania and he also has a close relationship with his little brother, Moldova.\nItaly Veneziano\nMain article: Italy Veneziano\nIn World Stars Chapter 346, Veneziano comes to visit Bulgaria's house unexpectedly in wake of an invitation send by a drunken Bulgaria about an offer to his best bathes. Italy Veneziano claims that he isn't there to humiliate him and instead praises him, on which Bulgaria suddenly feels embarrassed.\nHowever, at a later chapter, Bulgaria lets Veneziano to use his baths so he can take advantage of Veneziano's positive feedback to let everyone know and soon fill his wallet. Veneziano is confused with the ways Bulgaria shakes his head to mean 'Yes' and nods to mean 'No'.\n\nCzechia:\n\nCzechia (チェコ, Cheko) is a supporting character in the series Hetalia, also known as the Czech Republic (チェコ共和国, Cheko Kyouwakoku). She is the personification of Czechia. Czechia is depicted as a young woman with longish dark hair tied with a bun in the back, which appears to have been longer and in pigtails when she was younger. She is primarily shown wearing a light-colored dress shirt with a ribbon-like tie and knee-high boots, however a \"chibi\" style illustration of her accompanying her character profile depicts her in a darker military uniform. She seems to be a good deal shorter than Slovakia, roughly coming up to his chin. Personality\n\n\nHer profile describes her as \"serious, patient, and very hard-working!\" She plans her every move beforehand, and in her first appearance refers to independence from Austria-Hungary as a \"starting line\" and not a \"goal\". She also has a delicate and unique art sense.\nIn further appearances she is shown to take great pride in her achievements, to the point where in her younger days she would gloat while Slovakia cried in front of her. While this has tempered more as she grew older, she still tries to maintain a composed and goal-oriented attitude. Slovakia describes her as having a \"haughty\" attitude.\nAdditionally, on Belarus's relationship chart, it is shown that Czechia is terrified of her.\nRelationships\n\n\n\nSlovakia\nMain article: Slovakia\nAfter Czechia and Slovakia gained their independence from Austria-Hungary, they decided to join together as one country because they had always been someone's underlings and had similar languages. When deciding on a name, Slovakia wanted a hyphenated name, \"Czecho-Slovakia\", because it made them seem more like equal partners, and argued that the name without a hyphen made it sound like Czechia was calling the shots. Czechia was frequently annoyed by Slovakia's insistence over the hyphen, as she thought it was inexplicably trivial.\nAfter they left Russia's sphere of influence, they continued arguing over the hyphen, and it reached a point where they decided to separate and dissolve their union/get divorced. However, once they began living on their own, they missed each other a lot and realized that while they often annoyed one another, it was nice to live with someone.\nUpon meeting once again, they both stated that they were doing great on their own, though Czechia admitted that Slovakia did have some good points. Elated, Slovakia enthusiastically hugged her and said that he was so happy to hear that and that they both have good points, while Czechia tried to get out of his embrace.\nWhen they were children, they had a more competitive relationship, and Czechia would regularly outmatch Slovakia in strength and knowledge, which she would revel in while he cried. When reflecting on their past in the present day, Slovakia noted that while Czechia used to be tactless and rude, she's much cuter now, which caused her to get embarrassed and blush.\nIn character notes, it was stated that Slovakia always moves outside of her calculations when determining what to do.\n\nADVERTISEMENT\nLiechtenstein\nMain article: Liechtenstein\nPrior to her debut, it was revealed in character notes that Czechia is on bad terms with Liechtenstein. After Czechia and Slovakia get back on good terms following their separation, Liechtenstein asks them if they could pay her back the money they owe her, which makes Czechia silently flinch.\nHungary\nMain article: Hungary\nCzechia was annoyed when Hungary advertised its country's spas as she saw it as perverted. She doesn't like that Hungary's ad was \"More about sex appeal than hot springs\". As well as this, Czechia believes it's unfair that Hungary is more popular than her when it comes to spas, since she has a bigger passion for spas and has done more for the spa industry. \nItaly Veneziano\nMain article: Italy Veneziano\nCzechia and Italy run into each other when Italy is going to try Bulgaria's baths. Czechia states that she heard he's \"on a quest to master the art of baths\" and when Italy tells her he's going to try Bulgaria's baths, she praises herself by saying hers are most likely better and calls herself a \"major spa country\".\n\nDenmark:\n\nDenmark (デンマーク, Denmāku) is a supporting character in the series Hetalia. He is the personification of Denmark. Denmark has short, wild blond hair, black eyebrows, and drooping blue eyes. His mouth was noted to be drawn rather big, and he was drawn with a heroic image in mind. He wears a long black coat with red cuffs, a red shirt and black tie, red pants, and brown boots, as well as a small black hat. He is the second tallest of the five Nordics and is often shown carrying around a large axe in artwork. In a 2011 blog post, Himaruya mentioned Denmark was \"quite muscular\". Personality\n\n\nDenmark is said to be full of youthful vigor and humor, though he is also very stubborn and doesn't listen very well to others. As a result, he is known to be very controlling, bossy, and demanding, to the point where it is hard to get along with him. Like Sweden however, Denmark has since calmed down and now puts his energy towards social services and making furniture, though he still manages to get himself into trouble. In a follow-up question regarding his \"scary\" appearance, it was stated that his \"really wild\" behavior came from him being a sailor. Once he started to live on land, he began to calm down. It was said that, when he would finally make an appearance in the comic, he would have a frightening impression. A bio says he's a \"ruffian\" in the past.\nHe’s optimistic and easy-going, sometimes a bit too much and gets into trouble. He appears to be minding his own business and is care-free, but he actually works hard. He declares himself to be the \"King of Scandinavia\", and speaks in an Ibaraki dialect. He is also a heavy drinker. He is said to be carefree, but he is actually a hard worker. His Volume 6 profile states he has been active in cultivating organic products.\nHis house consists of 443 islands, and he's the liveliest of the Nordics, sometimes too lively that it annoys other nations. He sees himself as a big brother figure toward the other Nordic countries, mainly due to the fact that he's the oldest of them, and often tries to talk them into things they wouldn't normally do or be interested in. However, he genuinely cares about their feelings and well-being and doesn't push them further than they're comfortable with.\nHe appears to have a certain priority for maintaining his own self-image, as seen in Hetalia Fantasia 2 when he opts to lie to Germany and Japan about the progress of his quest. In the Drama CD, Iceland says that Denmark enjoys licorice.\nA 2011 blog post suggested that Denmark blatantly ignores offensive and aggressive social tones, maintaining a cheery demeanor. Although this suggestion seemed to be only applied to his reactions to Norway's routine negativity, in the 2011 Halloween event he executed the same social method in a forceful confrontation with Belarus in which she throws a clothes hanger at him and yells that Russia's group is going to win the costume contest. It also shows that Denmark has great reflexes.\nSince the past, he considers Norway as his best friend. Also, he's trying to get closer to Germanylately.\n\nADVERTISEMENT\nRelationships\n\n\n\nFinland\nMain article: Finland\nFinland lived with Denmark, but made the decision to flee with Sweden, having grown tired of being surrounded by stronger nations and wanting to be free. Finland occasionally refers to him as Ta-san (short from the Finnish name for Denmark, Tanska), as heard in the third interval CD.\nGermany\nMain article: Germany\n\n\nDenmark egging Germany to accept the proposal \nDenmark's been trying to get closer to Germany, as stated in a character bio. He is successful when he and Germany accepted the proposal to build a bridge connecting them.\n\nADVERTISEMENT\nIceland\nMain article: Iceland\nDenmark considers himself to be an older brother towards Iceland. In The Wordy Nordic Comic, Denmark was excited to hear the news of his test results. After learning of the promise that Norway and Iceland made, Denmark pokes fun at him but later asks him if he could be called \"big brother\" as well.\nNorway\nMain article: Norway\nNorway is a childhood friend of Denmark's, whom he feels rather close to and strongly about, believing that Norway sees him the same way as a \"best friend.\" However, he is unaware of Norway's bluntness and subtle ways of teasing and insulting him. He performs well because he needs to be cool in front of Norway.\nNorway frequently refers to him as anko, a term Himaruya has described as having a nuance like older brother or oniichan, the familiar form of big brother, and having a classmate-like feeling. Historically, Denmark and Norway drifted apart after Norway became oppressed by a more powerful nation. When Norway later entered into an alliance with Sweden, Denmark is described as throwing a childish tantrum, cutting their ties, and decreasing goodwill toward him. Despite Norway's apparent annoyance towards him, Finland has mentioned that Norway spends a lot of time with Denmark.\n\nADVERTISEMENT\nSweden\nMain article: Sweden\nSweden lived with him for a long period of time, but after being unable to stand his behavior and lifestyle, finally snapped and rebelled, leaving him behind. A set of strips on Himaruya's blog suggest that Denmark challenged Sweden a number of times, though they also suggest his defeats. Although their relationship hasn't been discussed much in modern times, Denmark does show concern for him during the Christmas 2011 event when he discovers Sweden knocked to the ground by Ladonia. Also during the event, he says that he thought it was cool that Sweden lived in a furniture store and said he wanted to try living in a house made of Lego.\nThailand\nMain article: Thailand\nDuring the 2011 Bloodbath, they chat about the Netherlands blocking Denmark’s attempt to visit Japan, stating that familiar with the Netherlands as well.\n\nEstonia: Estonia (エストニア Esutonia) is a supporting character in the series Hetalia. He is the personification of Estonia Estonia has dark blond hair styled in a bowlcut, and greenish-blue eyes (properly green or purple in earlier media). He also wears thin rectangular glasses.\nHimaruya stated in blog notes[7] that the glasses help Estonia conceal his facial expressions, as he \"has a lot on his mind\".\nAnother post[8] from 2008 revealed that Himaruya imagined him to be the tallest of the Baltics, but since the release of Hetalia☆Collezione which officialized many characters' heights, that title goes to Lithuania. However, it is worth noting that in earlier media, Estonia definitely looks taller than Lithuania when they stand side by side.\n\nPersonality\n\n\nThe second oldest of the Baltics, he is an ace student and is considered the luckiest of the three (although this is a historical inaccuracy), having managed to avoid problems with his wit. He is skilled at information technology, and appears to have good relations with most of the other nations. However, he tends to work at his own pace and doesn't pay much attention to his surroundings so he often goes unnoticed by others, despite his status as an ace student.\nEstonia plays the piano and says his singing voice is considered to be \"revolutionary.\" He enjoys making \"handmade products\" and star-gazing. He also runs his own blog.\n\nRelationships\n\n\n\nLatvia\nMain article: Latvia\n\n\nEstonia isn't close to him but has the same feeling as him towards Russia, fear. Estonia seems to actually care for Latvia's wellbeing, as shown in one particular comic strip as well as the fact he seems to yell Latvia's name whenever Latvia's in danger. \nIt is also implied they have lived together for a long time, as in \"The Violent Mr. Sve of Northern Europe Takes a Swing\", which takes place in the 17th century, Sweden approaches a house that both Latvia and Estonia live in. \n\nLithuania\nMain article: Lithuania\nDespite both being Baltic states, Lithuania and Estonia are not particularly close. However, it can be noted that he and Latvia often compete for Lithuania's attention, but resent the fact that he prefers Poland's friendship. \nRussia\nMain article: Russia\n\n\nA playful Estonia running away from Russia in The Gentle Fight Between Russia and I. \nEstonia lived with Russia during various points in history. During his time there, Estonia was taught many things in order to be \"converted into Russia\". When he found himself back at Russia's house for a second time, Estonia said he didn't want to see Cyrillic characters for a long time.\nEstonia is sometimes nervous around him (particularly during the WWII-setting strips) and tries to avoid him but in some strips he has been shown to have no problems being around Russia such as when he accused him of hacking his blog. This is further proven as Estonia openly mocks Russia's attempts to award himself and the other Baltic States placement on the \"Nations who aren't working hard enough to be my friend\" list.[9]His dependency on Russia is low these days. Russia refers to him as his “rival tweaker.”\n\nAmerica\nMain article: America\nIn The Gentle Fight Between Russia and I, Estonia asks for America's help to track the hacker who hacked his blog. Estonia is convinced that Russia's the culprit and he waits for the internet connection to screen. The two nations wait and America then sits on the windowsill and talks to a bird while Estonia groans in dismay.\nSweden\nMain article: Sweden\nEstonia and Sweden meet for the first time in the strip, \"The Violent Mr. Sve of Northern Europe Takes a Swing\"\"(Episode 70 in the anime). Upon their first encounter, Estonia screams in fright when seeing Sweden's face but later apologizes for being rude after Finland whispered to him that he made Sweden angry, though the latter did not actually hear Estonia. Estonia then introduces himself, and Sweden states that he wants Estonia and Latvia to come with him to join the Swedish Empire, but Estonia nervously says that it is not possible, with Latvia adding they would need Poland's permission first. Determined, Poland tries to stand his ground against Sweden but later he ends up getting \"stranger anxiety\" and Sweden is given partial custody of Estonia and Latvia. Estonia lived as an underling under his rule.\nIn Hetalia: Axis Powerrs Volume 4's omake comic, Estonia wrote that when Sweden looks down at him, he feels as if Sweden might want to kill him.\n\nIceland\nMain article: Iceland\nIceland didn't want Estonia to become a Nordic country, and appeared to be against the idea.\nFinland\nMain article: Finland\nEstonia and Finland have known each other for a long time, thus they are good friends. After fleeing Denmark's rule, Finland stopped by to see him; during this visit, Sweden offered for the Baltics to come join them as family. Though Poland refused to let them go, Sweden gained partial custody of both Estonia and his friend Latvia. The two men are known to come up with strange festival ideas together, though Estonia snatched the \"leader\" position. \nNorway\nMain article: Norway\nThe two nations are said to share some sort of acquaintanceship. In Hetalia: Axis Powers Volume 4 's omake comic, Estonia writes that Norway is difficult to read but they talk on occasion. After the two nations are kidnapped by Parallel France (alongside with Finland and Sweden) in the 2010 Christmas event, Norway mentioned that Estonia's eagerness to join the Nordics frighten him sometimes.\n\nFinland:\n\nFinland (フィンランド, Finrando) is a supporting character in the series Hetalia. He is the personification of Finland Finland is a man of average height with short, platinum blond hair with long bangs, and violet eyes (brown or very rarely blue in earlier media) Personality\n\n\nFinland is described as being a gentle, simple young man with a soft and mellow appearance, which hides an unexpected strength. He is said to be exceptionally resilient, especially when faced with extreme weather (Axis Powers Volume 2[1]mentions him being strangely strong in the cold, and \"World☆Stars Chapter 105\"[8] reveals that he's so cold-resistant that General Winter does not affect him in any way). He's also quite chatty, though he might appear otherwise at first.\nAmong the Nordic Five, he's often seen as the odd one out, due to his eccentric tastes (even described as rivaling with England's[9][10]) and more largely the fact that his language is completely different from the others'.[Note 5] His peculiar interests include unusual festivals that no other country had imagined,[Note 6] and salmiakki, which he loves the taste of. He's also known for his love of saunas, sweets, alcohol (which he sometimes overindulges in, as seen in \"The Ruler of Scandinavia and The King of Eastern Europe\"[11]and episode of the same name), and the Moomins.\nAs the country of lakes and lush coniferous forests, Finland shows a strong connection to nature. \"World☆Stars Chapter 105\"[8] and Hetalia☆Collezione describe him as loving to be completely surrounded by nature in order to study, daydream and be alone with himself, to the point where it becomes hard to locate him. By extension, he also loves camping.\n\nADVERTISEMENT\nSanta\n\n\nFinland as Santa Claus \nIn the Hetalia universe, Finland fills the role of an actual Santa Claus.[Note 7] This references the modern-day popular belief that Santa comes from Finnish Lapland, which may have been the result of a mix between tales of Christian bishop Saint Nicholas and pagan folklore figures like Joulupukki.\nAlthough he sometimes gets help from other countries for delivering presents (such as in Finding Santa adapting the \"Christmas 2009 Event\"[12]), they are always portrayed as putting on an act, unlike Finland who has the real responsibility of carrying out Christmas every year. This second identity is not a secret to most of the other Nations given that Finland himself openly asked them for help multiple times, but he showed reluctance revealing himself to Ladonia.[13]\nSanta Finland first appears during the \"Christmas 2007 Event\"[10] and in Episode 28 of the anime adapting \":) In The World\",[14] in which he rides a sleigh with an engraved plate that reads \"Finland airline\".\n\nRelationships\n\n\n\nAmerica\nMain article: America\n\n\nFinland is the very first Nation to have met America[21]\nTheir first encounter was during the events of \"The Battle for America\"[21] (some of which is adapted in Episode 39). While Finland and Sweden were settling in Delaware, Finland spotted baby America hiding in nearby bushes and watching them. After Finland notices him, America gets scared and runs away. Later, Finland and Sweden got kicked out by Netherlands. \nFinland goes on to tell England and France about what happened to him, including the fact that he met a stray kid he sensed to be another Nation, and he worries about America getting hurt by Netherlands. After arguing about who would get to claim the child as their little brother, the three of them head back to the New World to find America. Eventually, England ends up taking America under his care.\nThe three of them tried to use traits America and them had in common to justify him being related to either of them, but when Finland asked which features did America get from him, the others suddenly objected to it by stating it was more about the strength of one's love rather than physical resemblance. Nonetheless, Finland is open to the idea of being America's family.\nIn the \"Christmas 2010 Event\",[37] America mentions how jealous he felt about kids getting presents from their dads. Finland says that since America shares some of his genes from the colonization days, he wouldn't mind it if America considered him as his \"papa\". America isn't opposed to the idea, but only if Finland looked older.\nIn Finding Santa (adapted from the \"Christmas 2009 Event\"[12]), three Santas have mysteriously disappeared and Finland asks England for help. America breaks through England's window and is the to first to volunteer to help Finland with delivering the presents to save Christmas, as long as the items to be delivered are available on Amazon.\n\"World ☆ Stars, Chapter 334\"[30] reveals that America started the rumor that Santa is from Finland. Finland mentions how busy he is fulfilling his Santa role during Christmas, to which Norway grows concerned and tells him that he doesn't need to overwork himself to match America's expectations. Finland simply replies that being Santa does have its perks.\nADVERTISEMENT\nDenmark\nMain article: Denmark\n\n\nDenmark and Finland in The Nordic Five +α\nFinland lived with Denmark during Kalmar Uniontimes, but made the decision to flee with Sweden, having grown tired of being surrounded by stronger nations and wanting to be free. However, they have excellent relations in the present day, the only hiccup to it being in \"World☆Stars Chapter 111: Their Smartphones are Nordic Designs Too\",[34] where Finland gets a little desperate when Denmark reveals he swapped his Nokia smartphone for an iPhone.\nFinland occasionally refers to him as Ta-san (short for Tanska, the Finnish name for Denmark), as heard in the third interval CD or in \"Meeting Of The Nordic\"[32] adapted in the episode of the same name.\nADVERTISEMENT\nEstonia\nMain article: Estonia\n\n\nFinland and Estonia in The Nordic Five +α\nFinland and Estonia are very good friends, having known each other for a long time. After fleeing Denmark's rule, Finland stopped by to visit him (events of \"The Violent Mr. Sve of Northern Europe Takes a Swing\"[17] and Episode 70), while Sweden offered the Baltics to come join them as family. Poland refused to let them go, but in the end, Sweden gained partial custody of both Estonia and Latvia.\nIn modern times, Estonia is very keen on gaining the status of Nordic country, which is a recurring topic of conversation between him and Finland. Because of this, he often joins Nordic meetups, either because he gets invited[32] or because he invites himself[35][36][4] to them. Despite that, the other Nordics don't seem to mind him much, and Finland tries to bridge the gap between him and Estonia as described in Finland's Axis PowersVolume 6 bio.[38]\nIn \"World☆Stars Chapter 388\"[39], Estonia is staying over at Finland's place in order to trick Russia and remotely test the security system he set up at his own house. Finland is unaware of what exactly is going on (and Estonia lies to him, saying he's merely having a lot of fun with a video game), but ends up finding a cardboard cutout of Russia at his front gate too.\nThe two of them are known to come up with strange festival ideas together, something they both enjoy partaking to (Estonia mentions winning the wife-carrying contest as well as hanging out with Finland on the same occasion in \"Estonia’s and Russia’s Gentle Argument\"[40] adapted in The Gentle Fight Between Russia and I, and they're also shown taking part in the mobile phone throwing contest in a request doodle from a 2010 blog post[41]) and which Estonia likes to use in order to poke fun at Finland, such as in \"World☆Stars Chapter 224\"[42] adapted in Get Better!\nA 2015 blog post[43] reveals that they make sweets together, which also constitutes a good part of their friendship. In Meeting of the Nordic and \"strip of the same name\",[32] Estonia joins Iceland's surprise birthday party and brings a huge stock of sweets with him, which Finland is excited about. A \"follow-up strip\"[44] explains that many Finns stock up their sweets by buying them in Estonia in order to bypass Finland's sugar tax,[Note 9] which Estonia never had.\n\nADVERTISEMENT\nIceland\nMain article: Iceland\n\n\nIceland and Finland in Meeting of the Nordic\nMuch like the other Nordics, Finland views Iceland as his junior considering Iceland is the youngest of the group. Iceland often refers to the others as \"old men\", and although in many instances he insists that he's not a child and is tired of being treated as such, but a strip from the \"Halloween 2013/2014 Event\"[45] reveals that deep down, he doesn't mind the others coddling him.\nFinland treats Iceland with endearment, almost as a father figure. In Meeting of the Nordic adapted from the \"matching strip\",[32] he reassures Iceland about the fact that he can drink alcohol as long as he's with a guardian, and later mentions how cute Iceland's outfit is. Similarly, in the World☆StarsVolume 7 extras,[33] Finland brings Iceland hand-picked berries and ends up taking a picture of Iceland's shirt for the others to see, marvelling at how he has been making friends and receiving gifts from them.\n\nADVERTISEMENT\nSweden\nMain article: Sweden\n\n\nSweden, Hanatamago and Finland in Our Failure\nFinland lived with Sweden for quite some time as part of the Swedish Empire, but their on-screen interactions properly start when the two of them leave Denmark's house (symbolizing the Kalmar Union) after Sweden got tired of being mistreated (events of \"Running Away With Mr. Sve\"[16] adapted in Episode 69).\nTheir relationship gets a very rocky start, as Finland finds Sweden's aloof behavior and constant scowl unsettling. However, since he didn't have any other options, he stayed with Sweden. Together, they went on to visit Estonia(\"The Violent Mr. Sve of Northern Europe Takes a Swing\" [17] and Episode 70), and Sweden offered the Baltics to come join them as family. Polandrefused to let them go, but in the end, Sweden gained partial custody of both Estonia and Latvia. This is also when Sweden first calls Finland his \"wife\", although Finland insists that he's not. He denies it again multiple times in the Christmas 2007 Event when it is mentioned by fans.[10]\nFinland refers to Sweden as Su-san (スーさん, \"Mr. Sve\",[Note 10] translated as \"Mr. Sweden\" in the English dub).\nThey end up living together in a house they built themselves, and they can be seen in their domestic life in strips from \"Comic Diary Summary Part 7\"[7] and \"Comic Diary Summary Part 11\"[20]. Around that time, they also find a stray puppy in their backyard, which they adopt and name Hanatamago. Finland remained under Swedish rule for a couple centuries afterwards, sticking with Sweden through thick and thin, such as during the Battle of Grunwald and more largely the Polish-Swedish Wars (The Ruler of Scandinavia and the King of Eastern Europe and \"matching strip\"[11]), or aftermath of the Kalmar Union (\"Nordic Manga Summary\"[23]).\nAfter that, Finland had to live with Russia for a while, and while none of it is actually shown in Hetalia, a strip from \"Comic Diary Summary Part 5\"[24] and Episode 82 show their reunion. Finland states that he had more freedom with Russia (to Sweden's shock), but had more fun during his time with Sweden. Despite that, he happily accepts Sweden's secret support during the Winter War, as shown in a strip[25] from the \"Christmas 2011 Event\".\nFinland and Sweden remain close in the modern day, hanging out by themselves or together with the rest of the Nordics. Finland found Sweden to be frightening at first despite the former's attempt at gentleness, though warmed up to him over time. In \"The Nordic Five +α\"[46] and matching episode, Finland describes him as soft-hearted and always coming to his help, and \"All the Best For 2009!\"[47] shows a rare instance of Sweden speaking in full sentences while they're enjoying New Year's Eve by themselves.\nThere is also a chance of them living together once more, though evidence of that so far is unclear. Although it's unconfirmed whether or not Sweden and Finland are actual housemates in the present day, they appear to have lived together multiple times (such as in the strip \"Mr. Sve And The Dog\",[18] or anime episodes 69 and 70 where Finland mentions that he'll have to live with Sweden). The strip and matching episode \"The Creation of Dambolis\"[48] as well as \"World☆Stars Chapter 224\"[42] adapted in Get Better! also seem to hint at them living together. Additionally, in response to an ask during the \"Christmas 2007 Event\"[10] about who between Finland and Sweden does the cooking, Finland replies that they take turns, further suggesting they live under the same roof.\nAdditionally, it has been said by Himaruya that Sweden is homosexual, and only has strong feelings for Finland.[49][Note 11] However, it is unconfirmed as to whether or not Finland returns those feelings.\n\nGreece: Greece (ギリシャ, Girisha) is a supporting character in the series Hetalia. He is the personification of Greece. Greece has brown hair, green eyes, and olive skin. He wears a brown jacket, with brown pants and a white t-shirt. He occasionally wears a brown hat. In artwork, he is shown to carry a giant cross, which represents Mount Athos\n\nPersonality\n\n\nHe is said to have a serious personality, but he often seems carefree and casual. He is often seen with cats, a reference to Greece's stray cat population. He loves naps and is often seen sleeping, but even though it seems there is nothing in his head, he has a love for philosophy and history. It is said that if you dig in his backyard, you'll find many ancient ruins and things belonging to his mother, Ancient Greece.\nIt is also implied that he frequently takes part in sexual activity; this is shown in a contribution Himaruya made to a Hetalia doujinshi anthology where England and France try to place the \"blame\" of the creation of the condom on him, seeing as he uses it very often. He replies by saying that while he does do these \"activities\" often, he doesn't really use condoms. \nRelationships\n\n\n\nJapan\nMain article: Japan\n\n\nThe two get along pretty well, due to their countries' good relationship (see Greece–Japan relations), and also share a love of cats. It's strongly implied that they once slept together during Greece's first visit to Japan (where they discussed the results of a sex frequency poll, Greece being the highest and Japan the lowest), but Japan denies it, believing that \"It was a dream!\".\n\nADVERTISEMENT\nTurkey\nMain article: Turkey\nThe two of them don't get along, and often fought with each other before finally deciding on a cease-fire. Even so, they're still ready to fight over anything, and Turkey takes pleasure in whatever he's able to beat Greece at. One of the most frequent fights between them is about who Japan likes more, though as Japan proved they are very easy to distract and entertain.\nTurkish Republic of Northern Cyprus\nMain article: Turkish Republic of Northern Cyprus\nGreece openly despise TRNC and doesn't recognizes him and he even doesn't like when Cyprus communicates with him. Comparatively, TRNC dislikes Greece constant struggles with Turkey and aids Turkey in any fights with Greece\n\nIceland:\n\nIceland (アイスランド, Aisurando) is a supporting character in the series Hetalia. He is the personification of Iceland. Iceland has silver-white hair, described as being somewhat tousled or \"bed-headed\". He wears a deep brown military jacket, a white dress shirt with a ribbon tie underneath, deep brown straight-legged pants, and white half-laced boots. He also sports a pair of white gloves He's usually seen with a Puffin, which sometimes sports a pink bowtie. Himaruya revealed in Volume 3 that his puffin's name is \"Mr. Puffin\" and what differentiates him from normal puffins is his black belly and pink bowtie. Mr. Puffin looks cute, but speaks and acts like an Italian Mobster Personality\n\n\nHe appears relatively cool and composed on the surface but is warmer and passionate (\"hot-blooded\") deep down. However, he doesn't show it because he's embarrassed and afraid of getting teased by it. It's the same for his accent. Iceland tries to hide his distinguishable accent and prefers to speak in English if he can. Rather than be called weird, he's widely known as aesthetic and very different compared to other European countries. Iceland appears calm, cool and doesn't talk much. He appears to be matured but is actually trying to hide his childish sides. He is a bit uninformed of the latest news since his house is separated from other countries but keeps up with American websites.\nHe seems to be rather modest as, when forced to strip to check him for the mark during the 2010 Christmas Event, he was very upset and unwilling, and seemed somewhat traumatized by it the next day, despite that it was for a good cause. He's very fond of licorices and hot springs.\nDue to his recent financial problems, Russia has been helping him. Though he is treated kindly by him, he can't help but feel suspicious. When Hungary implements that he's one of the younger ones and can't be exposed to a sensitive ghost story, he simply denies that he's not one of them. He's short-tempered when it comes to Mr. Puffin.\nIceland is mildly angry when the other Nordics pester him to call them (Norway especially) \"Onii-chan\" (big brother) because he wants the others to stop treating him like a child. He can see fairies and magical beings, as proven when Norway tries to persuade him using fairies called The Bøyg but prefers to pretend he can't.\nAs a child, he was introverted and lonely. He sent out letters hoping people would be interested in him but to no avail. As he got older and things began to improve, people began taking an interest to him but with Denmark and England quarrelling and almost being captured by African pirates, he wanted them to leave and felt that being lonely was better Relationships\n\n\n\nDenmark\nMain article: Denmark\nIn the anime, Denmark tries to force Iceland to call him \"onii-chan\"/big brother by saying \"All drinks are on Ice until he says it!\". Denmark likes calling Iceland \"Ice\" or \"Icey\", and sees him as a younger sibling, like Norway. Iceland appears to be somewhat annoyed by many of Denmark's antics and manner of trying to act like the leader/older brother of the Nordics.\nFinland\nMain article: Finland\nIn the same episode, Finland tries to get him to do the same. Finland calls Iceland \"Ice-kun\". Although Finland is the friendlier of the Nordics, Iceland sometimes sees this behavior as odd or over-the-top.\nFrance\nMain article: France\nFrance compliments of Iceland's phrasing being unique and interesting, continuing to offer Iceland to get together with him for some poetry sometime. Iceland instantly freezes and puts on a face that screams NO.\n\nADVERTISEMENT\nHong Kong\nMain article: Hong Kong\nHong Kong and Iceland seem to be very close friends. At America's 2011 Halloween party, they stood together wondering what was amiss about the party, and later when America and Englandappeared on the stage and Iceland finally realized that the \"empty feeling\" was England not being there to rant about various things, Hong Kong appeared behind him and put a hand on his shoulder, asking him about how he was feeling. He teasingly reminded Iceland that he said it was lonely without England around and asked again how Iceland felt now that Hong Kong was talking to him. \nThe two also spend time together during the 2013 Halloween party, being shown talking and joking together and having other interactions as well. At one point during the party, Hong Kong suggested to the entire group that they should tell the scary story inspirations behind their costumes, to which Iceland reacted by looking shocked and asking if he was stupid. Later, the two stand together with Liechtenstein as Hungary worries if her story would be too scary for \"the young ones\", the three of them, to hear. After that, Hong Kong and Iceland are seen again later sitting very close together on the couch as Hong Kong and Moldovaegg Iceland on to tell his scary story.\n\nADVERTISEMENT\nJapan\nMain article: Japan\nIceland sometimes chats about seafood or computer related topics with Japan but does not appear to spend much time with him apart from this. They can typically be called long-time casual acquaintances.\nLiechtenstein\nMain article: Liechtenstein\nIn the same 2013/2014 Halloween Event, Liechtenstein is seen grouped together with Iceland and Hong Kong to chat and joke around, she also tells a ghost story. She reacts to Iceland's love ghost story by gushing about how tough love is. After the party, Liechtenstein shares her experience of the other nations telling ghost stories to her to Switzerland, making him feel relieved for a second before she says that it's a shame Switzerland missed out the pervert and love stories. He shouts in anguish.\nNorway\nMain article: Norway\nIt is said that Iceland considers Norway to be the home where his heart truly is, while Norway in return feels that Iceland is very important to him and sees him as a younger brother. It has been revealed that Norway and Iceland are indeed brothers, after Iceland opted to get a DNA test (in actuality an excavation) done. When Iceland found this out, however, he seemed embarrassed or upset because he didn't want to refer to Norway as \"Big Brother\" (onii-chan). Iceland sees Norway as an older brother, even though he doesn't want to admit it. Iceland and Norway have a very close friendship, even going to the length of referring to each other as punks. Norway enjoys teasing Iceland, but there’s a clear emotional investment, and he looks after his little brother’s well-being. Norway does pry into Iceland's business, but secretly Iceland doesn’t mind Norway’s interference.\nADVERTISEMENT\nSealand\nMain article: Sealand\nHe first met Sealand when he was attempting to auction himself off on eBay but didn't understand what he meant when he wanted to become his friend due to their similarities as well as Sealand wanting to be referred to as \"senpai\".\nItaly Romano\nMain article: Italy Romano\nIn the Halloween Surprise strips, Iceland watches Italy Romano arguing childishly with Spain and hears him muttering about Spain knowing everything about him. Iceland states that they share the same problem by having a thickheaded guardian like that. Romano complains about how meddlesome Spain is, Iceland smiles a bit and says that Romano cares for Spain deep down, adding just like him. Romano is flustered.\nTurkey\nMain article: Turkey\nIceland has an unusual relationship when it comes to Turkey. Due to the Turkish Abductions, Turkey (Ottoman Empire) is one of the few countries other than the Nordics to early recognize and meet Iceland. Iceland calls him 'pops', which means that he sees the former empire as a highly respectable adult. Turkey is not awkwardly comfortable with him which is a bit surprising since it's rare for countries other than the Nordics to maintain a close relationship with Iceland. In the Christmas 2010 Bloodbath, he warns Norway that Turkey doesn't like to get his mask off. Iceland also once had a disturbing dream about him in Turkey's underwear, which he was very unpleasant with it until now.\n\nIreland:\n\nIreland (アイルランド, Airurando) is a supporting character in the series Hetalia. He is the personification of Ireland. Ireland is tall and has short, reddish orange hair styled in an undercut. He seems to have hazel eyes, though they could also be green. He doesn’t appear have as thick of eyebrows that all of the UK brothers have. Personality\n\n\nIreland is friendly, chatty and loud. He has a mysterious old man by his side.\nRelationships\n\n\n\nNorthern Ireland\nIn the past, Northern Ireland was his partner and closest friend, and they were in an alliance against England, until Northern Ireland got closer to England some time during the Industrial revolution, after being drawn into the textiles industry of the United Kingdom. Ireland does want to have a proper talk with Northern Ireland one day, but has been procrastinating with this so far.\nEngland\nIn the past, Ireland thought England was a weirdo and did not like him. Since Ireland is not part of the UK, he doesn’t live with him. In Hetalia World☆Stars - Chapter 476, it is mentioned that Ireland thinks of England as 'straight-laced', 'cosmopolitan', and that he 'likes his own culture'.\n\nLatvia: Latvia (ラトビア Ratobia) is a supporting character in the series Hetalia. He is the personification of Latvia. Latvia has short, curly dirty-blond hair and blue (sometimes purple) eyes. \nHe is the shortest of the Baltic trio, even though he was drawn somewhat taller in his earlier appearances in the webcomic and originally had thicker eyebrows.\nAccording to himself, his size is partially the result of Russia regularly pushing down on his head.[4] Personality\n\n\nThe youngest of the three Baltics, he is described as withdrawn and a crybaby due to the series of unfortunate events he's experienced in life. He is often pushed around by Russia, whom he tried and failed to cut ties with. He loves poetry and romance novels, and is recently hooked on tragic love stories. \nHe will often fail to read to the atmosphere and say or do what is prohibited in front of Russia, and then has to face harsh consequences. \nIn his Volume 6 bio, Latvia is called a \"hidden genius\" who manages to do things that seem impossible. However, he often does not partake in these endeavors unless ordered, so has slacked off as of late.[1] This is further elaborated in Hetalia: World☆Stars where Russia forces Latvia to build a railway that goes through his country. After the work is completed, Latvia is both impressed and shocked that everything worked out in one shot and trembles excitedly knowing he had these \"hidden powers and talents\" within himself. In the next panel however, he tosses the idea to the side saying, \"Not a chance, right?\". \nIn his World Stars character bio, he is said to be a bit pliable and unassertive compared to the other two Baltic States. He has a habit of thinking pessimistically. He is also troubled by stray bullets and is said to suffer from insomnia because Russia haunts his dreams. In a 2015 blog sketch, it was stated he wished he was as confident as Estoniais.\nDespite being rather young in physical age, Latvia's profile also states that he drinks a lot of alcohol. This is further elaborated on in the Hetalia Desktop Buddies, where he states that he is able to drink up to forty cups of alcohol at his best\n\nRelationships\n\n\n\nEstonia\nMain article: Estonia\n\n\nEstonia and Finland trembling in Russia's presence \nDespite both being Baltic states, they are not brothers and have little in common. Character notes reveal that Latvia and Estonia are in a \"mild battle\" over the origin of the Christmas tree. Though they are said to be under a ceasefire, the issue is said to be shouldering under the surface. Estonia seems to care for Latvia's well-being, as he will often yell out Latvia's name if Latvia is in danger or simply in an unpleasant situation. The two have an odd relationship as Latvia envies Estonia's confidence yet finds his interest in Mochibizarre and Nordic pursuits overbearing. \nIn the Sealand and Latvia Desktop Mascots, Sealand pointed out that he doesn't actually know much about Estonia, which upset Latvia somewhat. \nIt is also implied they have lived together for a long time, as in \"The Violent Mr. Sve of Northern Europe Takes a Swing\", which takes place in the 17th century, Sweden approaches a house that both Latvia and Estonia live in. \n\nLithuania\nMain article: Lithuania\nAlso a Baltic companion, Latvia is less seen with Lithuania as he is with Estonia, but Latvia is shown to highly respect Lithuania. Latvia often competes with Estonia for Lithuania's attention, but he resents the fact that Lithuania prefers Poland's friendship. Even so, they appear to be good friends and often spend time together. \nRussia\nMain article: Russia\nRussia is Latvia's former boss that he has failed to cut ties with, despite finding Russia frightening. Latvia frequently lets the wrong things slip out in front of Russia, and then has to face the consequences because he has failed to read the atmosphere. He also often ends up maimed by Russia's cruel retaliations, usually by the latter pressing down his head. The result is Latvia's lack of a growth spurt, which Latvia notes that if Russia didn't do this, he would have grown up to an additional 10 centimeters by now. \nIn Episode 43, Latvia is seen traveling to Ukraine'shouse with Russia to collect gas payment[Note 4], a further hinting to Latvia's inability to sever ties with Russia. \n\nSealand\nMain article: Sealand\nThough Latvia stabbed him with a flower when they first met at a world meeting, the two quickly managed to become close friends, due to their similarity of being small nations that weren't taken very seriously. Latvia attempts to act as an older brother and mentor figure to Sealand, but his own insecurities and worries tend to get in the way.\n\nLiechtenstein: Liechtenstein (リヒテンシュタイン, Rihitenshutain) is a supporting character in the series Hetalia. She is the personification of Liechtenstein Liechtenstein is a seemingly petite teenage girl who has blonde hair in a chin-length bob cut like her brother's, and green eyes. She wears an indigo ribbon on the right side of her head. As shown in flashbacks, she used to wear her hair long and in pigtail braids, but she cut her hair to look more like Switzerland and found that it was more comfortable. Liechtenstein, however, became mistaken for a boy, and thus became worried about her chest size, so Switzerland let her pick out and bought her the signature ribbon that she wears. Personality\n\n\nShe is described as quite high-tech, with a modest personality, mature but sweet and very caring, although she will make her point. She was moved along many different countries throughout her life, which became difficult and difficult for her after World War I due to lack of food. However, Liechtenstein was saved from her plight when Switzerland found her and adopted her as his sister.\nDue to her resemblance to her brother after her haircut (and having worn a duplicate uniform), Liechtenstein was once mistaken for being a young boy, causing her to become intensely concerned about the size of her chest. Switzerland rectified this problem by gifting her the purchase of a ribbon of her choice.\nAlthough few of her relationships have been shown in canon, her profile in Volume 4 states that she is social and has many friends. Relationships\n\n\n\nSwitzerland\nMain article: Switzerland\n\n\nLiechtenstein giving Switzerland a gift- the pink pajamas. \nLiechtenstein's older adoptive brother, saved by him when she was on the brink of devastation due to poverty and war. After she was taken into his care, Liechtenstein began to view Switzerland as an older brother and gratefully accepted the care he provided her to the point she cut her hair to match his. She often helps him in everyday matters but has shown concern for his own wellbeing and economic status, as she was worried about how he supported and defended himself during many difficult times.\nWhen Switzerland attempts to teach her self-defense in Episode 44 (which adapts a part of \"Liechtenstein's Journal Of Swiss Dopiness\"), Liechtenstein is more focused on her brother's drawings of stick figures (representing Liechtenstein, Switzerland, and Austria) on the chalkboard. She asks if he could draw them again on a separate sheet of paper for her.\nLater, Liechtenstein daydreams of how Switzerland's drawings would make cute stamps, leading the relenting Switzerland to agree to draw for her.\nThe two are very close and often spend time together. Liechtenstein has voiced many times how happy she is with him. In Episode 25 (which adapts another part of \"Liechtenstein's Journal Of Swiss Dopiness\"), Liechtenstein makes Switzerland a pair of pink pajamas, a show of appreciation of all Switzerland has done for her.\n\nAustria\nMain article: Austria\nThe real country of Liechtenstein was originally two pieces of land owned by Austrian nobles. Historically, Liechtenstein was heavily connected to Austria (and Hungary) until after WWI, although this has not been explicitly shown in canon. However, in canon, Liechtenstein and Austria are very polite to one another. She also appears to be quite friendly with him, having gone to lunch with him with her brother. \nIceland\nMain article: Iceland\nIceland appears to be one of Liechtenstein's good friends, as shown in the Halloween 2011 Event where Liechtenstein is seen talking and joking around with Iceland and Hong Kong. She also shares ghost stories with them and tells Switzerland about it, on which Switzerland immediately panics and demands to confront them.\nCzechia\nMain article: Czechia\nPrior to Czechia's debut, it was revealed in character notes that she is on bad terms with Liechtenstein. In the manga, it is indicated that Liechtenstein had lent Czechia money, and the latter is yet to pay her back.\n\nUkraine and Hungary\n\n\nHungary, Ukraine, and Liechtenstein discussing fashion \nMain article: Ukraine and Hungary\nThe three of them appear to be good friends. In Volume 4's \"A History of Interesting Clothes\", they discuss the cultural dressing customs in their countries. They also refer to each other by nicknames, indicating a close bond.\n\nLithuania:\n\nLithuania (リトアニア, Ritoania) is a supporting character in the series Hetalia. He is the personification of Lithuania Lithuania is a man of average height with wavy,[Note 7] shoulder-length brown hair and green eyes (blue in earlier media). He sometimes wears his hair tied back into a ponytail. He is the tallest of the Baltics, being nearly on par with Estonia. In an early blog note however, Estonia was said to be the tallest.[7] This plus another blog entry[8] from the same period already revealed a 10 cm difference between Lithuania and Poland, way before Hetalia☆Collezione[9]officialized many characters' heights.\nIn the strip \"While You Were Gone\",[10] Lithuania is shown to have deep scars covering his back. Although it has never been confirmed how and when exactly he got them, fans largely speculate that Russia is the culprit. Personality\n\n\nLithuania is the eldest of the three Baltics.[11] He is introverted, serious and perseverant, but is also described as an overthinker. Those traits make him prone to stress, which in turn triggers his stomachaches. A bio from Axis Powers Volume 3[12] describes him as \"more serious than Germanyand worse at understanding jokes\". He was often bossed around by Poland, but he shows patience and resilience even in the face of hardships.\nHe is also very aware of his condition as a personification and what that entails (of which he clearly thinks the disadvantages outweigh the advantages), as shown in \"It's Sealand!\"[13] and Episode 21.\nIn \"Lithuania's Out-Sourcing\",[14] Russia describes him as being a busybody, which checked out a few time throughout the series. During WWII, he phoned Poland a couple times to inform him of Russia's intentions (\"Pact of Steel\"[4] and Episode 56) and what he knew about Germany gaining power (\"Lietuvis!!\"[15] and Episode 47). Similarly, in \"Estonia’s and Russia’s Gentle Argument\"[16](adapted in The Gentle Fight Between Russia and I), America comes to Estonia's help after hearing about the hack from Lithuania.\nLithuania is said to be interested in martial arts and literature, and drives a second-hand car.[11]The strip \"Checkmating Poland\"[17] also shows a liking for chess, which he shares with Poland despite the latter's tendency to cheat his way to victory.\n\nRelationships\n\n\n\nAmerica\nMain article: America\n\n\nLithuania and America in Industrial Revolution - Part 5\nDue to his economy plummeting after WWI, Lithuania lived with America[Note 11] for a brief period of time and worked for him as his housekeeper (events of the whole \"Lithuania's Out-Sourcing\"[14][25][28] series plus \"Cleaning out the Storage\",[27] adapted in Episode 17 and Episode 20).\nAt first England regularly visited, as he doubted America's ability to treat Lithuania well, but the latter proved to be enjoying his new lifestyle and was well-received both by America himself, but also by the other occupants of the house (America's whale and Tony). England was shocked by the ease with which Lithuania tackled his workload, to which Lithuania replied that \"if you once lived with Poland 24/7 and then got invaded by Russia, you would know\".[14]\nTony specifically displayed an odd liking for Lithuania, to the point of repeatedly beaming him up into his spacecraft out of jealousy, should Lithuania spend too much time with the whale.[14]Another instance from \"Comic Diary Summary Part 6\" shows Tony confessing to Lithuania that he would like him to meet his parents, and offers Lithuania to come with him (to the whale's clear annoyance).[31]\nAfter the Great Depression hit, Russia came to take Lithuania back home with him, claiming that America was no longer fit to care for him.[28]Lithuania showed reluctance to leave America, but he ultimately did not have much of a choice.\nEven though America was his employer, Lithuania still regarded him with the softness of a more experienced, wiser Nation. He patiently deals with America's anxiety after he just watched a horror movie by accepting to sleep with him, and answers America's many questions about his younger days during the Commonwealth[25](Lithuania mentally notes that in that aspect, America hasn't changed from when he himself was a child). In \"Cleaning out the Storage\"[27] (or Episode 17 and Episode 20), when America sheepishly tells him he might be becoming a sentimental old man after being unable to throw away most of the storage's contents, Lithuania simply replies that he is just becoming an adult.\nIn the strip \"Happy Birthday!\"[32] set in the mid-2000s,[Note 13] Lithuania returned to America's house to celebrate his birthday, fulfilling his long-time promise to hang out with him again once the times are brighter.[28]\nADVERTISEMENT\nBelarus\nMain article: Belarus\n\n\nLithuania talking about his date with Belarus in Episode 37\nLithuania and Belarus have known each other since childhood, as evidenced by a scrapped strip[33] from \"Comic Diary Summary Part 11\". Adult Lithuania has shown to have a crush on her dating back to the interwar period at least[Note 14] (going by \"Pact of Steel\"[4] and Episode 37 where he says to have a date planned with her). A strip from \"Comic Diary Summary Part 11\"[34] also shows Lithuania returning home from a (only 3 minutes long) date with Belarus, to Poland's annoyance then shock as he notices that not only are all of Lithuania's fingers broken, but that Belarus is still there actively breaking them further. Lithuania remains oblivious, claiming that he just has the ability to bend his fingers to such extremes.\nIn Japanese, Lithuania refers to Belarus as Belarus-chan, a cutesy way of addressing her.\nManhandling Lithuania has been a habit of hers since they were young,[33] but she doesn't seem to feel genuine hatred towards him, if the dates she accepted are anything to go by. Aside from physical harm, she doesn't act anymore menacingly towards Lithuania than she does with others (however Lithuania definitely sees her through rose-colored glasses, refusing to acknowledge the way she treats him). In a strip from the \"Halloween 2013/2014 Event\",[35][36] she even offers Lithuania her help to save Poland from Russia's rough cuddling (by substituting herself for Poland).\nMany fans tend to speculate that Belarus acted that way because she feels jealous of Lithuania's privileged position in Russia's household, but all interactions quoted above disprove it. Given her general tendency to intimidate others, it is more likely that Lithuania's blinding crush merely makes him an easy target for her. It is also worth noting that in spite of their dates, Himaruya confirmed Lithuania's feelings to be unrequited.[37]\nADVERTISEMENT\nPoland\nMain article: Poland\n\n\nLithuania and Poland in Our Failure\nLithuania and Poland's dynamic began as very uneven, due to the latter's selfish and overbearing nature. Lithuania was often bossed around by Poland, who considered him as his lackey and demanded that Lithuania \"adjusts to his way of life\" (which mostly meant endorsing Poland's religion and language).[Note 15] This is something that Lithuania seems to have forgotten about for a time, as memories suddenly resurface during his phone call to Poland circa WWII (\"Pact of Steel\"[4]and Episode 56) causing Lithuania to curse Poland for his past behavior.\nIn spite of their shaky beginnings, the two eventually developed a sense of partnership during their time together as the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth. In \"The Legend of the Iron Wolf\"[24] (adapted in Episode 96), Poland gives Lithuania the nickname Liet (short for Lietuva, the Lithuanian word for Lithuania),[Note 16] and suggests to be called Po himself. However, while Poland still uses Liet in the present day to refer to Lithuania, it seems that Lithuania never used Poland's nickname past the events of \"The Legend of the Iron Wolf\" (merely referring to him as Poland). In the English dub, Liet is replaced by Lithy.\nIn that same strip, despite Poland having questionably listened to Lithuania's story, a Polish guard observing them from afar notes that it'd been a while since Poland had been so happy. This hints that despite his initial rudeness, Poland genuinely enjoys Lithuania's company.\nThe two were split apart when Russia defeated them in the Kościuszko Uprising (flashback from \"Pact of Steel\"[4] and Episode 57), putting an end to the Commonwealth and taking Lithuania away with him. Remaining without any contact for a time, Poland then helps Lithuania build his economy back up during the interwar period(suggested by an annoted doodle from \"Lithuania’s Out-Sourcing Sequel\"[38]). For the remainder of Soviet times however they seem to have made occasional contact, judging by the phone calls from \"Pact of Steel\"[4] and \"Lietuvis!!\"[15]\nIn \"Meeting Of The World\",[39] hen Russia expressed interest in Lithuania becoming one with him again, Poland objected to the idea, threatening to make his capital Warsaw once more. In the original \"webcomic version\",[40] he fiercely objected to Russia laying a hand on Lithuania.\nPresent day-set strips show them having mended their friendship, even tho Poland remains one of the main sources of Lithuania's near-constant worry. In several strips from the \"Halloween 2013/2014 Event\", Lithuania gets anxious over Poland either not showing up,[35][36] or having been spotted by Latvia crying by himself[41](because Lithuania is late to the party). Lithuania clearly fears leaving Poland on his own at social events, as he is aware of his debilitating social anxiety.\nSimilarly, in an arc from \"World☆Stars\", he panics over Poland's safety after Russia plants cardboard cutouts of himself at several Nations' doorstep.[42][43] Thinking that Poland wouldn't be able to sleep for a while if he received the cutout without any context, Lithuania immediately goes to Poland's house[44][45] where he finds him livestreaming video games. Turns out he was aware of the situation and remained calm about it, even upon discovering the creepy setup his own cutout came with. In the same strip, Lithuania recalls a recent time when Poland had to stay over at his place for a while after forgetting his house key at America's.\nOverall, their relationship evolved from a very rocky and interest-driven cohabitation into something more genuine, with Lithuania always worrying about Poland's wellbeing while Poland relies on him as an anchor in familiarity. This is reflected in their respective versions of Marukaite Chikyuu, with mirroring verses telling about how much they value each other as well as the fond memories they have of their times together.\nADVERTISEMENT\nPrussia\nMain article: Prussia\n\n\nLithuania being attacked by Prussia in Episode 92\nBecause of his unpleasant past encounters with Prussia as the Teutonic Knights, Lithuania holds a stubborn grudge against him that doesn't seem to falter even centuries later.[30] Prussia's forceful attempts at converting Lithuania to Christianity seems to be the only reason for that grudge, even though it is ironic considering he then peacefully converted when allying with Poland against their common enemy.\nStill, Lithuania was shown to act in a very cold and even condescending[29] manner around Prussia during their time living together at Russia's mansion, even when Prussia tried helping Lithuania with paperwork in good faith. Prussia never addresses the tension (nor the reason behind it) directly, but he obviously feels hurt by Lithuania's behavior.\nIn a strip from the \"Halloween 2013/2014 Event\",[35] he pretends to have forgotten Lithuania's and Poland's names, but still ends up helping Lithuania with finding Poland, further proving that the centuries-old grudge is one-sided.\nADVERTISEMENT\nRussia\nMain article: Russia\n\n\nLithuania and Russia in Episode 37\nThe two met for the first time as kids in \"The Yoke of Tartar\"[46] (adapted in Episode 89), when Russia was under the Tatars' rule. Lithuania offered that he and Russia become friends, but Russia declined, stating that he \"wasn't strong enough yet\". He promised to work hard and return later, then ran off through the snowy forest.\nLithuania became Russia's subordinate for the first time after the partitions of the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth, losing to Russia who gets to decide of his fate as the winner. Russia tells Lithuania that he looks smart, and because of that Lithuania will be working for him at his house, separating him from Poland. This first half of Lithuania's life as Russia's underling is marked by the events of Bloody Sunday, which he witnesses firsthand.[26] Lithuania also inevitably yearns for the glorious (but gone) days of the Commonwealth, as evidenced by \"Lithuania's Out-Sourcing Sequel\".[38]\nAfter gaining independence at the end of WWI, Lithuania spent 11 years working at America's house (\"Lithuania's Out-Sourcing\"[14][25][28] series), where Russia visited him once. Turns out he wasn't necessarily interested in seeing Lithuania in person, but he did threateningly ask of America to take good care of Lithuania because he \"used to be his\".[14] When the Great Depression strikes, Lithuania is forcefully taken back under Soviet rule.[28]\nFans commonly speculate that Lithuania was \"Russia's favorite\", but it was never directly confirmed. While Russia does seem to put more trust in Lithuania (he is the only one shown to assist with paperwork[29] and diplomatic aspects,[4] while Estonia and Latvia are usually left aside), it could be something that happened overtime as Lithuania is described by his fellow Baltics as someone who takes the lead. It could also be because Lithuania is the oldest of the three,[11]and has more experience in the eyes of Russia.\nTheir relationship is mostly that of a power imbalance, which sometimes escalated into physical harm. Despite the trust he has in Lithuania, Russia's unstable personality has lead to multiple instances of physical abuse and humiliation. Under a doodle from the strip \"Pact of Steel\",[4] Lithuania is said to have been \"beaten up by Russia day after day\" once he started working as his underling, while a panel from \"While You Were Gone\"[10] shows Lithuania reminiscing about one instance of him wearing a maid outfit while Russia ominously stands behind him with a whip in hand. The same strip then reveals the deep scars that run across his back, further hinting at what he could've endured (though the origins of those scars were never confirmed).\nIn the present-day set \"World☆Stars Chapter 96: The Baltic States, Tripartite Talk\",[47] Lithuania tries to motivate Estonia and Latvia to stick together as the Baltic trio by comparing the situation to when they got their independence from Russia after the fall of the Soviet Union, a memory that quickly turns sour as Lithuania's brash attempt at claiming his independence was disapproved of by the others, and met with strong resistance from Russia.\nIn modern times, Lithuania still feels uneasy when it comes to Russia, although he tries to stand his ground in the face of Russia's intimidation. \"World☆Stars Chapter 385: From Russia with Love...\"[48] shows him exhausted after watching Russia's stream in which his name is mentioned right off the bat. He then suggests that he, Estonia and Latvia try to figure out how Russia's antics are gonna affect them, and prepare \"counter-measures.\n\nLuxembourg:\n\nLuxembourg (ルクセンブルク, Rukusenburuku) is a supporting character in the series Hetalia. He is the personification of Luxembourg. Luxembourg is a young man with short light blond hair with long bangs covering his right eye. He wears a dress suit with a ribbon tie, black gloves and shoes. Another drawing depicts him wearing a blue pinstripe dress shirt with a white vest, black tie, black gloves, tall dark boots, and khaki pants Personality\n\n\nHe exudes elegance, has a friendly personality, and speaks in a very polite and proper manner. However, sometimes when he talks to himself he slips into a dialect (Kanazawa). A footnote of the Wordy Nordic Comic states that Luxembourg is the world's top drinker. He is an extremely busy person, and is unable to attend the 2011 Halloween party due to work as instructed by his boss. However, due to his connections with Hollywood specialists, he is able to attend next year's party dressed as a frightening-looking wolfman. He ends up winning the costume contest and takes pride that he was able to scare Belgium with it. He is also described as being a kind young man in the Hetalia☆Collezione.\nHe has a dog named Pelutze. A note from Himaruya states that Luxembourg was always intended to have because he has the most movies with dogs. When developing the character, Himaruya stated that \"Luxembourg could be a man with a clear common sense or something similar.\" Pelutze has appeared alongside the early sketches and drafts of Luxembourg.\n\nADVERTISEMENT\nRelationships\n\n\n\nBelgium\nMain article: Belgium\nDuring the Christmas 2011 event, Luxembourg is seen checking on Belgium as she's having a bad dream. He refers to her as \"Big sis\", which subsequent blog post states he uses as a term of endearment for her. During the Halloween 2013 event, Luxembourg charges at her in costume and scares her. He reveals himself and expresses pleasure that he has scared her, but notices that she has already fainted. On a character relationship chart, Luxembourg states that Belgium always takes good care of him and she sees him as a \"reliable little brother.\", this might be proven in the Luxembourg And Belgium chapter on which Luxembourg is worried when Belgium jokes about how she should become macho and muscular so their problems would be solved if they grow stronger. Luxembourg pleads at her that he'll do anything at all if that means Belgium won't do the joke.\nIn early character notes, Himaruya speculates that a Belgium character would always be kept busy by Netherlands and Luxembourg. A probable draft design for Luxembourg shows Belgium jumping over to embrace him.\n\nADVERTISEMENT\nNetherlands\nMain article: Netherlands\nHe refers to Netherlands as \"Big Brother\" as a term of endearment. On a character relationship chart, Luxembourg states that \"the fine arts at big brother's house are interesting,\" while Netherlands says that Luxembourg shouldn't follow his example.\nA draft design for Luxembourg before his debut depicted him trying to mimic Netherlands' hairstyle.\nFrance\nMain article: France\nLuxembourg seems to get along well with France, accompanying him to check in on Bulgaria on behalf of the European Union.\n\nMoldova: Moldova (モルドバ Morudoba) is a supporting character in the series Hetalia. He is the personification of Moldova. Moldova has dark brown hair in a style featuring two strands pushed out on either side of his head, and amber eyes.\nHe wears a brown, patched jacket, and a small hat similar to his brother Romania's, he often doesn't wear pants. His hat is dark with a white ribbon tied around it. Another physical trait he shares with his brother happens to be two prominent canine teeth, resembling vampire fangs Personality\n\n\nMoldova comes across as a happy younger child (described as \"numa numa\" and \"yay\"), and appears very fond of his older brother Romania. He also considers Russia a \"big brother\" type, although he appears a bit nervous when speaking of him.\nAs he is one of the poorest countries in Europe, he dresses rather simply, often only wearing a coat, and notes that he had to make his own Halloween ghost costume from scratch. Stating that he already has enough sweets, Moldova instead asks for underwear at the party. He has been a hard worker since birth, and has read the atmosphere in order to properly deal with Russia. He is also described as more patient than the micronation kids. He also claims to have a high tolerance for scary stories.\n\nRelationships\n\n\n\nRomania\nMain article: Romania\n\n\nMoldova is Romania's younger brother, who enjoys spending time with him. Romania in turn is very protective. The siblings share the prominent gene of having slightly larger canine teeth than the other nations; a representation of vampire fangs. In more recent panels, Moldova has started acting more mature around his brother and less reliant, much to the other's shock and concern. They arrived together to the 2013 Hetaween Halloween party.\nMoldova is shown to be very tearful when they're separated, as he's shown crying for Romania in a sketch depicting the time he was under the control of Russia. A subsequent drawing shows Moldova happily riding on Romania's shoulder. Romania also seems to think well of Moldova, as he tells Germany to give regards to him during the 2011 Christmas event. During the 2013 Halloween event, when Romania is able to get inside the main party room, Moldova is happy to be reunited with him. Likewise, Romania is happy that he is okay, though he becomes scared by Moldova's subdued reaction to seeing Russia.\n\nRussia\nMain article: Russia\n\n\nMoldova being terrified of Russia. \nMoldova is likely very afraid of Russia, considering the idea of calling him \"Big Brother\" very terrifying and complying only out of intimidation. He has exclaimed in shock upon finding Russia watching him as he reunited with his brother Romania. Later on, when faced with the idea of living with his brother again, his reply was about how it was common sense that they were all brothers and friends with Russia with an unnerving expression\n\nMonaco:\n\nMonaco (モナコ, Monako) is a supporting character in the series Hetalia. She is the personification of Monaco. Physical Appearance\n\n\nIn her initial design, Monaco was depicted with brown hair and brown eyes. In her finalized design, her coloring was changed to blonde hair and dark blue eyes to match with France. Himaruya has been coloring France's hair a darker blonde/light brown for a while now, but it is unclear whether Monaco's hair has also changed. Part of her hair is tied into a long side braid with a large hair bow, while her bangs are held back on the right side by bobby pins. She wears glasses and is described as dressing \"elegantly\". This can be seen in her first profile where she wears a long pink double-breasted coat with a sailor collar attached, over a white blouse with a red neckbow, a pair of white trousers, black gloves and tall brown boots. Monaco has a small body\n\nPersonality\n\n\nIn her official profile she is described as a smart girl who gives off a proud impression. She speaks like an old lady and her great intelligence has protected her country for ages. A young honor student fond of ballet, she is surprisingly social despite her serious appearance. She has a very anxious character; she constantly worries about world affairs and the economy. Due to her distress about what other countries are doing, she is regarded as the most agitated country in the world.\nKnown for her beautifully structured casino (which, ironically, she herself did not build), she focuses most of her energy onto tourism, house interior designing, and cosmetics. She owns a Japanese-styled garden.\nShe appears to be good at poker, having easily beaten Seborga during the 2011 Christmas event. She's also comfortable when saying about the people who ended up penniless in her house, unsurprisingly because of gambling.\nWhen Taiwan expressed unease due to the Western girls' cleavage, Monaco tells her that she shouldn't worry about such things. She seems to be reliable, as she made comments that calmed down the partying caused by the sudden great gathering of people which caused the event to halt, and Germany thanked her for them. She continued to offer her assistance if it was needed, as she had no intention of leaving the event until it was all over. When it was announced how many people had shown up, she said it couldn't be helped as everyone was on vacation and had a lot of free time. When Cyprus mentioned the special atmosphere that Christmas had, she said that it would be the best if they had parents and lovers with such an atmosphere\n\nRelationships\n\n\n\nFrance\nMain article: France\nMonaco is classified as a younger sister type to France, and she relies on him for diplomatic, military, and various other affairs, so if France ever asks her for a favor she tends to comply. However, she really wants him to stop patting her on the head because it is embarrassing.\nIn the published version of the America and England strip, she is shown alongside France when he mocks England for not having any friends.\nSeborga\nMain article: Seborga\nMonaco and Seborga are friends and seem to have a romantic relationship. Seborga once invited her to go out and eat dinner with him, which Monaco agreed to and said that sounded fun. Seborga then excitedly suggested that after dinner, they should enjoy the night scenery and go on a drive, and proposed Sunday for the day of the date. Monaco agreed to all of those propositions on the condition that he had to beat her at poker first, though Seborga seemed to have expected that response. Despite Seborga losing the game, Monaco still went out with him regardless, showing that she has feelings for him as well.\nADVERTISEMENT\nSeychelles\nMain article: Seychelles\nDuring the 2011 Halloween event, Monaco and Seychelles were both in the French costume group. Monaco refers to Seychelles as \"Seychelles-kun\" in the original Japanese to indicate a friendly relationship or Monaco is a kind of senior to the Seychelles.\nVietnam\nMain article: Vietnam\nIn Halloween 2013, Monaco stood with Taiwan and Vietnam and they discussed their costumes. Vietnam asked her would she want to wore like Taiwan and she, Monaco gave an answer that she was just an onlooker, Vietnam asked her: \"Are you an old man?\"\nSpain\nMain article: Spain\nMonaco was originally under Spain's protection, however he meddled in her affairs quite often\n\nNetherlands:\n\nNetherlands (オランダ, Oranda), is a supporting character in the series Hetalia. He is the personification of the country of Netherlands \n\nNetherlands has somewhat short, spiky pale brown or blond hair with sideburns, and eyes that have varied between being amber, green, or blue in different colored artwork. He is shown to be quite muscular and is usually a bit taller than many other characters but is shorter than Russia and Sweden. He has a small vertical scar on his forehead over his right eyebrow. He also wears a long, blue and white striped scarf, shown in his formal debut in the series as well as a uniform sketch. He can often be seen with a somewhat stern or intimidating expression which causes others to be nervous to be around him. Personality\n\n\nInitially in a note in the Christmas 2007 Event, Finland described Netherlands as a strong strategist and world-dominating type of man who likes young women and thinks nothing of using some types of shady drugs. However, some of these aspects of his character, specifically him \"liking young women\", have not ever been referenced by Himaruya again since their one mention in 2007, several years before Netherlands was actually introduced as a character and could possibly be Finland's suspicions of Netherlands as he shown to be rather fearful of him.\nNetherlands is a pleasant coworker and a reliable business partner. He won't go back with someone if something bad happened because it's a tad embarrassing and everyone'll gossip about it. In his earlier years of being a country, he was shown to be awe struck at difference in wealth between himself and Belgium and thus began his stingy ways when he saw what having money was capable of doing. Because of his new love for money, he often tries to profit from nearly anything or anyone he can.\nIn Volume 3 (p. 20) of the manga the character profile says that he is \"The solemn, neat freak, downer, Hokuriku-dialect speaking, scheming older brother. (Hokuriku is the region west of Tokyo on the Japan Sea side of Japan.) Of course, he goes Dutch. Of course, his kitchen and garden maintenance is flawless. By the way, he loves bunnies! The raw materials for his cooking come from Germany!\". Also, on a different page (p.61) it is stated that he also is \"a neurotic, solemn, free older brother\" who \"hates tied things and messy gardens\".\nAs mentioned in Christmas Rampage 2007, he once fought with Turkey over the title of \"The Tulip Country\".\nThe notes in Rampage also revealed that he has another sibling, Luxembourg, adding Belgium to be his younger sister.\nNetherlands is depicted as a smoking a marijuana blunt in one sketch, further reflecting the infamy of marijuana and other drugs in Amsterdam. In his formal debut in the series, he is shown constantly smoking a cigarette.\nIn the Battle For America strip, he is mentioned to have beat up both Sweden and Finland after they built a villa (New Sweden) in the \"new world\". Finland proceeds to worry about what would happen if Netherlands found the baby America.\nNetherlands also owns a pet rabbit, whose name is not yet known. Relationships\n\n\n\nBelgium\nMain article: Belgium\nNetherlands and Belgium are said to have had difficult relations, stemming from when they were both under Spain's control. When Netherlands left to become independent, he fought against both her and Spain in the Dutch Revolt and the Eighty Years' War. He later tried to reconcile with Belgium, so they could both form the Kingdom of the Netherlands, but due to their irreconcilable differences (Netherlands being better with trade and influenced by the Protestant British versus Belgium being better with farming and influenced by the Catholic French), it did not work out and Belgium declared her independence. In the anime, they are shown to get along quite well most of the time they are around each other.\nGreece\nMain article: Greece\nNetherlands tends to lose his composure when Greece bothers him too much, especially when it involves business.\n\n\nNetherlands losing his composure with Greece. \nADVERTISEMENT\nJapan\nMain article: Japan\nThough Netherlands acted aggressive towards most others, he refrained from acting this way towards Japan to convince him to open trade with foreigners, due to having had a companionship with him for years before his isolation. Also, in the Netherlands and Isolationist!Japan comic, it is shown that Netherlands is visibly bothered by the fact that Japan signed a peace treaty with America.\nLuxembourg\nMain article: Luxembourg\nLuxembourg is Netherland's younger brother. Not much is known about their relationship, though Luxembourg says that the art designs at the Netherlands house are nice, and the gardens are also nice. Netherlands also states that he doesn't want Luxembourg to follow his example.\nSpain\nMain article: Spain\nNetherlands became a member of Spain's household when the Burgundian-Hapsburgs acquired the crown of Spain. Their relationship was very difficult to the point where Spain believed Netherlands hated him. For example, Netherlands refused to eat with Spain. Eventually, he left and later had a war with Spain to be recognized as an independent country.\nThey spent a lot of time together during Christmas of 2010, with Spain going to Amsterdam to enjoy Christmas with Netherlands and Netherlands continually telling him to go home. When the shadow figures appeared, Netherlands told Spain to go away, took on a fighting position, and tried to protect him. When he fell, Spain attempted to help him, getting himself a weapon and saying \"Leave (my) Netherlands alone!\", but he also failed. Later when Christmas is over, a half-naked Spain is shown sleeping on top of Netherlands. Netherlands only comment was \"What the hell? This sucks\".\n\nNorthern Ireland:\n\nNorthern Ireland (北アイルランド, Kitaairurando) is a supporting character in the series Hetalia. He is the personification of Northern Ireland.\n\nNorthern Ireland has short, red hair with bangs that are combed over to one side. Like his brothers England, Wales, and Scotland, he has thick eyebrows and green eyes. Of the UK brothers, he is shorter than Scotland but taller than Wales and about the same height as England. Personality\n\n\nNorthern Ireland is friendly, nosy, and sometimes tells sarcastic jokes. He loves Tayto crisps, ice cream, and talking about the weather. He doesn't know when to hang up on the phone. He's often portrayed to be nervous/anxious while rambling about things he plans to do but then retracting some of his statements. Relationships\n\n\n* England: Northern Ireland is England's older brother, as agreed upon in the United Kingdom brothers' house rules.\n* Ireland: In the past, Ireland and Northern Ireland were partners and best friends, in an alliance against England, until Northern Ireland was drawn to the United Kingdom's textiles industry some time during the industrial revolution and became closer to England. At present, Ireland wants to talk to him but has been procrastinating about it.\n\nNorway:\n\nNorway (ノルウェー , Norūē) is a supporting character in the series Hetalia. He is the personification of Norway, Norway has short, light blond hair and dark blue/indigo eyes. He wears a brown belted, navy blue sailor top with a light blue collar, tie, and cuffs, with matching pants and sailor hat. He sports a Nordic Cross barrette in his hair, and has a detached hair-curl that floats independently beside his head (which often has a dot that floats independently beside it). Personality\n\n\nNorway is a mysterious man who speaks quietly and is reclusive from the everyday world. He is often shown to have a troll or fairy with him and has the ability to see and interact with various supernatural creatures. For this reason, some fans think that he and those who also believe in the supernatural (i.e. England and Romania) might possibly get along well.\nHe is described as curious but difficult to read. In Hetalia Fantasia 2, while questing with Denmarkand crossing paths with Germany and Japan, it was stated that he is painfully shy around strangers as he resolved to leave upon seeing them. However, moments after this suggestion Norway did a generous amount of speaking, complaining and whining to said pair, demonstrating the absence of his previously assigned social discomfort. This contradictory scene may have been constructed solely for comedic purposes; however, it leaves the impression that Norway is the type to recruit himself sympathy at the expense of Denmark.\nMr. Puffin referred to him as a \"snarky guy\". He is shown to be hard-working, skilled at chess, and is a baker. His hobby includes fighting over mackerels with his little brother, Iceland, and gently pokes Denmark.\n\nRelationships\n\n\n\nDenmark\nMain article: Denmark\nThey have known each other since childhood, but while Denmark considers the two of them to be very close and believes that Norway feels the same way he does, he is unaware of Norway's teasing. Denmark appears to be the one Norway is most annoyed by and often refers to him as \"Dane\". Despite Norway appearing annoyed by Denmark's over the top energy, he is also aware that Denmark cares for him and the other Nordic countries and has done what he can to help them in various areas.\nEngland\nMain article: England\nNorway and England had a long history. When Norway was still a Viking, he invaded the British Isles. They both have a strong belief in magic, and every year, Norway sends England a Christmas Tree as a token of thanks for being his ally.\nEstonia\nMain article: Estonia\nThe two nations are said to share some sort of acquaintanceship. In the volume 4 omake comic, Estonia writes that Norway is difficult to read but they talk on occasion. After the two nations are kidnapped by Parallel France, alongside with Finland and Sweden in the 2010 Christmas event, Norway mentioned that Estonia's eagerness to join the Nordics frightens him sometimes.\nADVERTISEMENT\nIceland\nMain article: Iceland\nNorway feels strongly for Iceland, whom he sees as a younger brother to him and as being very important. In return, it is said that Iceland considers Norway to be the home where his heart truly is. It was later revealed that Norway and Iceland are indeed \"biological\" brothers due to Iceland having been discovered by Norwegians, though Iceland became irritated at Norway's insistence to refer to him as a big brother (\"onii-chan\"). \n His behavior toward Iceland is noticeably different than his behavior toward most others. As Norway embraces being Iceland's older brother, he is more playful and smiles more while acting in the manner of a supportive yet teasing older sibling. He often looks out for Iceland during many situations, even bringing a non-alcoholic beverage for him during Iceland's birthday party\n\nPoland: Poland (ポーランド, Poorando) is a supporting character in the series Hetalia. He is the personification of Poland. Poland is a man of average height with straight, shoulder-length blond hair parted in the middle, downturned green eyes and a cat-like mouth.\nTwo blog posts from 2008[7][8] already revealed a 10 cm difference between him and Lithuania, way before Hetalia☆Collezione[9] officialized many characters' heights.\nHe has somewhat of an androgynous physique, which is accentuated by the occasional hairdo (most often a ponytail, or a half-ponytail at the side or the front of his head) and a few instances of him wearing feminine clothes in earlier media Personality\n\n\nPoland's most notable trait is his extreme shyness, shown namely in \"The Violent Mr. Sve of Northern Europe Takes a Swing\"[10] or \"World☆Stars Chapter 481\"[11] where he gets embarrassed after walking in on France and Germany in a compromising situation. Being faced with strangers will trigger his social anxiety, leaving him unable to speak or even causing him to have a breakdown (such as during the \"Halloween 2013/2014 Event\"[12]), but befriending him will reveal a cheerful, goofy and clingy personality.\nHowever, he also has a tendency to act like a prince,[13] being demanding, bossy (especially towards Lithuania) and selfish to an overbearing point as well as being forceful with his opinions. He is quick to react when challenged or threatened by other Nations, which essentially means diving headfirst into conflict with the need to assert dominance with varying levels of success. Because of this short-sightedness and impulsivity, other Nations can easily take advantage of him.[14]\nDue to the many instances of him surviving partitions and annexations, he is compared to a phoenix,[4] reviving from his ashes. He also speaks in Nagoya dialect (described by Himaruya as \"highschooler-like\"[4][14]), often translated in English as the \"valley girl\" accent.\nRecent strips set in the present day have shown him becoming a big fan of video gaming and more specifically e-sports, as mentioned in his Hetalia☆Collezione profile. He livestreams his gaming session in \"World☆Stars Chapter 390: Is Poland Safe From Harm...?\",[6] and the same strip also mentions one instance of him winning an e-sports competition at America's. Funnily enough, in a series of unused panels compiled in a 2010 blog post,[15] Poland can already be seen holding a controller. What this panel was supposed to be used for is unknown.\nAdditionally, Poland seems quite fond of horses. Episode 47 adapted from \"Lietuvis!!\"[16] reveals the brown pony he keeps as a pet after purchasing a lot of them for military use, and he's shown riding a similar-looking horse in Surprise Halloween!(adapted from the \"Halloween 2011 Event\"[17]), which gets him denied entry to the venue.\nAside from that, he used to routinely play chess with Lithuania (as evidenced by \"Checkmating Poland\"[18] and Episode 97) even though the strip depicts him as a sore loser, making up rules to win by cheating.\n\nRelationships\n\n\n\nItaly Veneziano\nMain article: Italy Veneziano\n\n\nPoland and Italy Veneziano in \"While You Were Gone\" \nItaly and Poland are said to get along quite well,[28]although it is unclear where exactly this stems from. In \"While You Were Gone\", [27] Poland reveals that he and Italy became friends when Poland was partitioned (which would be the earliest in 1772), but a strip from \"Comic Diary Summary Part 9\"[29]shows them playing together around the time of the Italian Wars (which would be the latest in 1559).\nRegardless, the two seem to be on very good terms, as Lithuania even notes in \"While You Were Gone\" that Poland isn't his usual shy self around Italy. It was also Poland who gave Italy the idea to make an ejecting seat in Germany's Kubelwagon in \"Comic Diary Summary Part 6\",[30] as he had previously designed an airplane with one (which backfired on him). Similarly, Poland mentions in a present-day set bit of \"Comic Diary Summary Part 9\" that he admires Italy.\nTheir friendship might be reflecting the marriage of Sigismund I the Old and Bona Sforza, who introduced Italian intelligentsia to the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth.\n\nLithuania\nMain article: Lithuania\n\n\nLithuania and Poland in Our Failure\nPoland was initially shown to be rather self-centered and unconcerned about Lithuania's problems, treating him as his lackey and demanding that Lithuania \"adjusts to his way of life\" (which mostly meant endorsing Poland's religion and language).[Note 10]\nAs they spent more and more time together during the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth, Poland started showing signs of genuine appreciation for Lithuania, albeit in his own odd way. In \"The Legend of the Iron Wolf\"[24] (adapted in Episode 96), Poland gives Lithuania the nickname Liet(short for Lietuva, the Lithuanian word for Lithuania),[Note 11] and suggests to be called Pohimself. However, while Poland still uses Liet in the present day to refer to Lithuania, it seems that Lithuania never used Poland's nickname past the events of \"The Legend of the Iron Wolf\" (merely referring to him as Poland). In the English dub, Lietis replaced by Lithy.\nIn that same strip/episode, despite Poland having questionably listened to Lithuania's story, a Polish guard observing them from afar notes that it'd been a while since Poland had been so happy.\nThe two were split apart when Russia defeated them in the Kościuszko Uprising (flashback from \"Pact of Steel\"[4] and Episode 57), putting an end to the Commonwealth and taking Lithuania away with him. Remaining without any contact for a time, Poland then helps Lithuania build his economy back up during the interwar period[26]. For the remainder of Soviet times however they seem to have made occasional contact, judging by the phone calls from \"Pact of Steel\"[4] and \"Lietuvis!!\"[16]\nIn \"Meeting Of The World\",[31] hen Russia expressed interest in Lithuania becoming one with him again, Poland objected to the idea, threatening to make his capital Warsaw once more. In the original \"webcomic version\",[32] he fiercely objected to Russia laying a hand on Lithuania.\nPresent day-set strips show them having mended their friendship, even tho Poland remains one of the main sources of Lithuania's near-constant worry. In several strips from the \"Halloween 2013/2014 Event\", Lithuania gets anxious over Poland either not showing up,[33][34] or having been spotted by Latvia crying by himself[12](because Lithuania is late to the party). Lithuania clearly fears leaving Poland on his own at social events, as he is aware of his debilitating social anxiety.\nSimilarly, in an arc from \"World☆Stars\", Lithuania panics over Poland's safety after Russia plants cardboard cutouts of himself at several Nations' doorstep.[35][36] Thinking that Poland wouldn't be able to sleep for a while if he received the cutout without any context, Lithuania immediately goes to Poland's house[37][6] where he finds him livestreaming video games. Turns out he was aware of the situation and remained calm about it, even upon discovering the creepy setup his own cutout came with. In the same strip, Lithuania recalls a recent time when Poland had to stay over at his place for a while after forgetting his house key at America's.\nOverall, their relationship evolved from a very rocky and interest-driven cohabitation into something more genuine, with Lithuania always worrying about Poland's wellbeing while Poland relies on him as an anchor in familiarity. This is reflected in their respective versions of Marukaite Chikyuu, with mirroring verses telling about how much they value each other as well as the fond memories they have of their times together.\n\nPrussia\nMain article: Prussia\n\n\nPoland and Prussia in Episode 53\nPoland and Prussia have known each other since the Northern Crusades. After being kicked out by Hungary due to his power-hungry behavior (after he tried to claim Burzenland for himself), Prussia ends up working for Poland.[20] Extremely preoccupied by Christian dogmas at the time, Prussia wants to find out Poland's gender to ensure he's not a girl.[Note 12] This leads to an absurd situation (recalled during the \"Christmas 2011 Event\"[38]) where Prussia asks a confused Poland to touch his genitals for confirmation, which Poland strongly declines, affirming he's not a girl. Prussia ends up chasing Poland around insistently, under Hungary's bewildered watch. Hungary herself also wound up on the receiving end of Prussia's invasive questions as he was also thrown off by her androgynous looks.[20]\nTheir relationship would end up strained with the Teutonic Knights aiming to claim more and more of the land they were appointed to defend against, and the two started to argue with each other.[39]Those tensions grew steadily and culminated at the Battle of Grunwald, where Prussia is eventually defeated by Poland and Lithuania. Much later, Prussia (now an independent kingdom) played a major role in the Partitions of Poland.[Note 13]\nIt is unclear what their feelings towards one another are in the present day. In a strip from the \"Halloween 2013/2014 Event\",[33] he pretends to have forgotten Lithuania's and Poland's names, but still ends up helping Lithuania with finding Poland.\n\nRussia\nMain article: Russia\n\n\nPoland defending Lithuania in Episode 01\nAs mentioned in \"Pact of Steel\",[4] the two have argued with each other since the early 1600s, when Poland succeeded in capturing Moscow. Russia got his revenge by joining Prussia and Austria in the Partitions of Poland. In 1939, Russia decided to partition Poland again in conjunction with Germany, and their relationship was further soured by the post-war Soviet domination.\nAlthough it is unclear how exactly their relationship evolved overtime, Poland is notably unafraid of Russia as he actively steps in several times to defend Lithuania when Russia becomes a threat, despite the power dynamic between them having been switched a long time ago.\n\nPortugal:\n\nPortugal (ポルトガル, Porutogaru) is a supporting character in the series Hetalia. He is the personification of Portugal. Portugal is depicted with somewhat curly, shaggy hair tied in a short ponytail, and green eyes. He has been shown wearing a white button-down shirt with a popped collar, a khaki jacket, and knee-high boots, wearing around his neck what appear to be aviator goggles. He also wears dark gloves and what seems to be a white belt or fanny pack, with dark brown and red-orange pants. His skin appears to be roughly the same shade as Spain's, as does his hair. Himaruya has stated that while Spain and Portugal have similar appearances, easy ways to tell them apart are Portugal's ponytail and the mole underneath his right eye. Additionally, Himaruya draws Spain \"as being pretty open with his emotions\" while he's \"conscious of his composed expressions\" when drawing Portugal. Personality\n\n\nPortugal is stated in a character note to be well-known across the continent for his ennui and laid-backness. Even with him being one of the major powers in the past during the Age of Discoveries, he thinks that home is the best nowadays, focusing on domestic issues. He's very nostalgic as stated to also be saudade. He's shown to have low self-esteem, as he chastises himself for losing the Asian sea trade to England and apologizing to Macau for his incompetence and cowardice. However, he's also shown to be cheerful and friendly, even to countries he's competing with, and almost always appears smiling.\nIn a comic panel, he is shown to be handling a piece of mechanical equipment half-heartedly with a line after that saying he isn't good with machines, happily letting England teach him how to work with it. He also seems to like to tease Spain or, in Spain's own opinion, blackmail him. \nIn the databook Hetalia☆Collezione, some of his other interests have been revealed. He seems to like fado music and wants someone to perform it with him, and what he'd like to do as a challenge is to sail into the ocean, which he hasn't done in a while. His favorite flowers are carnations and lavenders and his preferred food is the francesinha, a traditional Portuguese sandwich.\n\nRelationships\n\n\n\nEngland\nMain article: England\n\n\nPortugal (right) and England (left) getting along while Spain (far left) watches them nervously. \nOn Himaruya's blog, it was revealed that England was the one who taught Portugal how to fight when battling Spain. They seem to cooperate well, and have the world's oldest living alliance with the Windsor Treaty in 1386. In a comic panel, England is shown promising to support Portugal with all his strength, to which a happy Portugal answer that makes him feel reassured. It is later explained that Portugal and England have a deep bond between them, and sometimes when England is being sweet and under certain conditions, he offers Portugal his technological skills. He also seems to write Portugal letters.\n\nFrance\nMain article: France\nWhen discussing the differences between Portugal and Spain, France says that he would hide words with hidden meanings into the conversation, so Portugal would go home and grumble about it later. Portugal deems this an eloquent answer, though that night he grumbles about whether or not France was really up to something.\nJapan\nMain article: Japan\nIn Netherlands and Isolationist Japan, it is mentioned that Japan used to have exchange with Portugal, but he got kicked out because Japan felt that he could be dangerous. In a 2010 blog post, it is stated that Portugal is a country that has deep ties with Japan.\nNetherlands\nMain article: Netherlands\nIn the original text for a segment later included in the strip We Love England, it is mentioned that Netherlands and Portugal beat up Spain. They were also mentioned as having beaten up Spain in background text of Maria Theresa and the War of Austrian Succession. Portugal appears to interact with Netherlands in a friendly manner, even when they were both competing for trade in Asia. At one point when Netherlands shows up, Portugal says that its \"just like him\" as Netherlands is always following him around. Portugal asks him if he really likes him that much, and Netherlands tells him to stop \"talking nonsense.\"\nDuring the era of the Qing dynasty in China, Netherlands (as well as China) was an excellent merchant who, while blocking Portugal, leaped at every opportunity where he sensed profit. It is further explained in the Eighty-Third serialized chapter of World☆Stars that Netherlands threatened Portugal's position as a maritime trading partner in Asia, making preemptive moves and capturing his trading posts in places like Japan, China, and India. Netherlands later directly confronts Portugal and asks him for Macau, as he seeks to conquer the Asian trade.\n\nMacau\nMain article: Macau\nMacau and Portugal are very close friends. They have a strong connection and joke around together despite Macau's business-like manner with others. Macau's close relationship with Portugal is also visible in his cuisine, with dishes such as bacalhau and Portuguese-style duck being adapted. Macau also received his formal name, \"Macau Which Carries the Name of a Most Faithful God\", from Portugal.\nThe two are shown to have been friends long before Macau became Portugal's underling. During the 15th and 16th century, the teenaged duo made huge profits through trade in Asia, and Portugal referred to them as a \"dream team\". When Netherlands wanted to take Macau from him, Portugal refused, because Macau was his \"best friend\". He went to war with the Netherlands over it, and after a loss, Macau was seen comforting Portugal and asking him to cheer up. Macau slater showed concern for Portugal as he struggled during the Industrial Revolution, though Portugal blamed himself for making things difficult for Macau. However, it was then explained that Macau managed to adapt on his own, as Portugal is very laissez-faire.\n\nItaly Romano\nMain article: Italy Romano\nIn Portugal's debut strip, a drunken Romano expresses annoyance at the nature of his relationship with Spain, claiming the later only becomes meek when Portugal is around.\nSpain\nMain article: Spain\nIn the first mention of the character in November 2006, it is stated that they do not see eye to eye very much, drawing comparisons to the relationship between England and France. In the original text for a segment later\n\n\nPortugal and Spain as children. \nincluded in the strip We Love England, it is mentioned that Spain got beaten up by the Netherlands and Portugal. They were also mentioned as having beaten up Spain in background text of Maria Theresa and the War of Austrian Succession. A small sketch of Spain is later featured on a design sheet for one of the prototype female designs for Portugal.\nAccording to Romano, Spain acts really strange when he's around Portugal, complaining that he becomes meek and that he's \"playing favorites.\" Portugal admits Spain acts this way because he knows so many foolish stories about him that Spain can't say no to him. \nDespite their turbulent history, the two are shown chatting easily, as Portugal shows no trepidation to show up at Spain's house, listen to his phone calls and tease him. While discussing their economies during the Industrial Revolution, Portugal criticizes Spain for his \"bravado\" despite both being in near-identical dire situations. He also states that he enjoys seeing Spain, who was once very powerful, having sunk so low and it makes him feel good.\nThey also deny their near-identical physical appearance, as they remark how different they are from each other despite being neighbors, and immediately afterward can't be told apart by Seychelles, causing them both to become shocked and flustered. This is attributed to the fact that they share the same ancestor, hence making them related in some way. It is however not specified what kind of relatives they are. In the fandom, they are often considered brothers, called the Iberian Brothers.\n\nRomania: Romania (ルーマニア, Rūmania) is a supporting character in the series Hetalia. He is the personification of Romania Romania is a young man of average height with wavy, shoulder-length strawberry blond hair, pale skin and red (sometimes pink) eyes. He also has a distinctive pair of pointy fangs, though most of the time only one of them is shown protruding from his mouth. This characteristic is shared with Moldova.\nEven before Hetalia☆Collezione[6] officialized many characters' heights, a blog post[2] from 2014 mentioned that Romania was 172 cm tall.\n\nPersonality\n\n\nRomania loves black magic, folktales (referencing myths of Romanian vampires and demons), strange and mysterious things, making him to come out as an eccentric character plus the fact that he's an expert in magic and fortune-telling. In reality, he is a friendly and mischievous person who is said to be very good friends with Bulgariaand often quarrels with Hungary.\nApparently, when speaking of fairies, Romania also has his romantic side too. He has the appearance of a jokester, when he is actually a hard worker who reads the atmosphere well. He is nearly as infatuated with Roman culture as Germany; this may be why he desperately tries to prove his descendancy from Rome, to no avail.\nRelationships\n\n\n\nAncient Rome\nMain article: Ancient Rome\nRomania is very passionate about being another descendant of Rome, and is said to be very knowledgeable about later Roman Emperors.[7]Bulgaria also tried to join in on the topic when Romania was discussing it with Italy Veneziano, which left the latter rather confused even though he seemed receptive to Romania's justification.[8]\nHowever, Italy Romano does not approve of the idea, firmly believing he and Veneziano are the only legitimate grandchildren of Rome (even blaming Veneziano for \"questioning the obvious\").[8] In World☆Stars Chapter 163,[4] despite the many points raised by Romania about why he should be a legitimate heir of Rome, Romano gets defensive and resorts to denying Romania's claim based on the fact that he doesn't have the characteristic hair curl shared by Rome himself, both Italy brothers, and in-universe Roman Emperors. This leaves Romania bummed out about being rejected so quickly.\nADVERTISEMENT\nBulgaria\nMain article: Bulgaria\nRomania and Bulgaria are shown to be best friends who often push each other around jokingly. The two are often grouped together (along with Hungary) in the European Union, and together make an appearance in the Halloween 2013/2014 Event, where Romania tries to persuade Bulgaria from wearing a Survey Corps' costume to the party. When Moldova chooses to spend the party with Russia, Bulgaria consoles Romania by offering his jacket, on which Romania immediately refused.\nWhen they lived together in Russia's house, Bulgaria has created a song about doing chores and Romania joins him to sing it with others, terrifying Russia along the way.\nEngland\nMain article: England\n\n\nEngland and Romania in Gakuen Hetalia: Go Forth! Newspaper Club!! First Half\nRomania and England are both inflicted with the same interest in magic. While England opts more for tame mythical beings, Romania is more prone towards vampires and gore ones. They are both shown to be the members of the Black Magic Club in Gakuen Hetalia: Go Forth! Newspaper Club!! First Half where the Newspaper Club interviews them.\nADVERTISEMENT\nHungary\nMain article: Hungary\nHungary and Romania's relationship is described as a \"cat-and-dog\" relationship, in which they constantly fight. Hungary is said to name all of her dogs after famous Romanians, and dislikes being grouped with him and Bulgaria in the EU. In Romania's case, Hungarians are often used in his jokes. \nMoldova\nMain article: Moldova\nRomania is Moldova's doting older brother, and cares for him immensely as seen in the Halloween 2013 Event, where he is shocked at how Moldova's carefree and childish personality is quickly replaced by a very adult-like demeanor. Even so, he's very sad when Moldova chooses to spend the party with Russia rather than with him\n\nScotland: Scotland (スコットランド, Sukottorando) is a supporting character in the series Hetalia. He is the personification of Scotland. Scotland has short, dark brown hair with a cowlick and is the only UK brother with dark hair. He appears to be the tallest among them. His eyebrows are thick and his eyes are green, like all of his brothers.\n\nPersonality\n\n\nScotland is stubborn, honest and straightforward. Although he seems tough when he talks to England, he's actually a really nice person. \nAlthough he is a pragmatic and realistic person, he does believe in supernatural creatures, such as his friend and national animal, the unicorn. \nScotland wishes to live alone and join the EU some day. He likes football and Edinburgh Castle. \nRelationships\n\n\n\nEngland\nMain article: England\nScotland is England's big brother. He has an ongoing football rivalry with him. Currently, he has a friendly relationship with England, however he still interested in moving out of the shared United Kingdom house to join the EU. \nWales\nMain article: Wales\nWales is Scotland's brother. They have a dispute about which country King Arthur originates from. Other than that, their relationship is fairly friendly.\n\nNorthern Ireland\nMain article: Northern Ireland\nNorthern Ireland is Scotland's brother. \nFrance\nMain article: France\nWhile they have not interacted in canon yet, many fans believe Scotland and France are very close friends with each other. The alliance between the two countries, the Auld Alliance, technically is the oldest alliance in Europe, since it began in 1295 and is considered to have ended in 1560 with the Treaty of Edinburgh (although the Auld Alliance was never formally revoked). Scotland and France also have a mutual dislike and rivalry towards England.\nGermany\nMain article: Germany\nScotland refers to Germany as his 'aniki' (big brother) and tries to get his attention in the hope of joining the EU.\n\nSlovakia: Slovakia (スロバキア Surobakia) is a supporting character in the series Hetalia. He is the personification of Slovakia. Slovakia is depicted as a young man with somewhat messy hair and a long ahoge curling forward from the back of his head, though the ahoge isn't consistently drawn. His hair appears in some pictures to be darkish and in others to be very light, but in colored art, his hair seems to be a light brown. He wears a jacket over a dress shirt, with a ribbon-like tie around his neck and long slacks. Personality\n\n\nIt is shown that, when he was younger, he would often cry due to Czechia besting him in some way, though he doesn't appear as bothered by it when he's older. He is described in a character profile as being very patient, and being more easy-going than Czechia is. He is said to be somewhat loose or irresponsible, and not particularly assertive, but despite this, can be picky about minor details. \nHe is shown to be upset about the lack of a hyphen in the name Czechoslovakia to the point where he doesn't seem adverse to falling under Russia's sphere of influence if it was restored. He also seems to be very persistent, such as about the aforementioned hyphen, for the sake of which he went so far as to rub Czechia with cheese on the face in an attempt to make her comply. \nFollowing his and Czechia's separation, he is shown to become flustered by the amount of boxes of belongings to sort through, as well as by having to use an unfamiliar toaster with more buttons than he is used to. Also, following their separation, Czechia remarks that without Slovakia around, everything stays clean, indicating he may be messy or sloppy.\n\nRelationships\n\n\n\nBulgaria\nMain article: Bulgaria\nAs a part of Eastern Europe alongside Slovakia, Bulgaria openly mocked them in the same chapter when Slovakia and Czechia were arguing after their freedom from Russia. He walked past and said with a lazy grin about the two getting a divorce, on which they denied the matter.\nCzechia\nMain article: Czechia\nFollowing gaining their independence from Austria-Hungary, Czechia and Slovakia decided they wanted to join together as one country, as they always had been someone's underlings and had similar languages. When choosing a name, however, Slovakia wanted a name with a hyphen, as he felt it made them seem like equal partners. He argued that without the hyphen, the name made it sound like Czechia was in charge, and then made Czechia act out a humiliating pose by sitting on his back as if dominating him, leading to them continuing to argue as Czechia jumped up and down on his back. In character notes, it is stated that Slovakia always moves outside of Czechia's calculations when determining what to do.\nIt is shown that when Slovakia was younger, he would often fall short of Czechia and would cry about it while Czechia scolded him. Though after getting older, he seems to find humor in Czechia's attitude and states that she's \"much cuter now\" that she's older.\nIn the years after their independence from Austria-Hungary, Czechia became irritated by Slovakia's frequent nitpicking over the name of \"Czechoslovakia\" and the presence of a hyphen in it, which she finds trivial and annoying and remarks that Slovakia nitpicks about it practically daily. Slovakia becomes so fixated on the issue of the hyphen that he is unfazed by falling into Russia's sphere of influence, much to Czechia's annoyance. Upon leaving his sphere of influence, the argument between Czechia and Slovakia escalates to the point where they separate. Upon beginning life on their own, however, each of them discovers that despite getting on each other's nerves from time to time, it was nice to have someone to live with. After meeting again, they both say that they're doing great living on their own, but Czechia admits that Slovakia, despite his nitpicking, has some good points. Slovakia becomes thrilled and immediately embraces her, saying he's happy to hear that and that both of them have their good points, while Czechia struggles to escape from his hug.\nIt should also be noted that despite some popular fanon headcanons, Czechia and Slovakia are in no way siblings or otherwise related.\n\nSweden:\n\nSweden (スウェーデン Suweden) is a supporting character in the series Hetalia. He is the personification of Sweden. Physical Appearance\n\n\n\n\nChibi Sweden from Axis Powers Volume 4\nSweden is a tall man with short, shaggy platinum blond hair and turquoise eyes. He also wears thin, rectangular glasses.\nHe has a distinctive stare that many other characters perceive as menacing, a facial expression he shares with Holy Roman Empire, Prussia, Germany and Germania (a nod to the fact that they are all tied to Germanic peoples).\nHe is the tallest of the Nordics and also one of the tallest characters overall (though Netherlandsremains the tallest at 185 cm). Even before Hetalia☆Collezione[6] officialized many characters' heights, a strip from \"Comic Diary Summary Part 7\"[7] mentioned that there was approximately a 12cm height difference between him and Finland.\nIn a blog post[8] from 2011, Sweden was described as \"considerably muscular\".\n\nPersonality\n\n\nSweden was once a viking and the \"Conqueror Of The Baltic Sea\", but now stands neutral in military matters; he has calmed down and currently puts his strength into welfare. He is silent and difficult to understand; his taciturnity is due to the fact that he was born in a cold area. Deep down, he is actually quite playful, but it's rarely shown because of his intimidating aura.\nHis hobbies include making furniture and art. It is said that his canned Surströmming can be used as a deadly weapon. He speaks in a Fukushima dialect,[9] often translated in English as grunts and truncated words.\nDespite his silence, he is said to take interest in arguments and debates.\nBiography\n\n\n\nViking Age\nSwedish Empire\nWWII\n\nModern Era\nRelationships\n\n\n\nDenmark\nMain article: Denmark\nDenmark once ruled over Sweden and Finland, but Sweden grew aggravated by his control and his refusal to listen. Sweden finally snapped and ran away from their home. A set of strips on Himaruya's blog suggest that Denmark challenged Sweden a number of times, though they also suggest his defeats.\nAlthough their relationship hasn't been discussed much during the modern period, Denmark does show concern for him during the \"Christmas 2011 event\" when he discovers Sweden knocked to the ground by Ladonia. Also, during the event, Denmark thought it was cool that Sweden lived in a furniture store and said he wanted to try living in a house made of Lego. In a comic published in Comic Birz, Denmark states that he and Sweden used to fight frequently but are now \"best buds\".\nEstonia\nMain article: Estonia\nSweden and Estonia meet for the first time in the strip, \"The Violent Sve of Northern Europe Takes a Mighty Swing!\". Upon their first encounter, Estonia screams in fright when seeing Sweden's face but later apologizes for being rude after Finland whispered to him that he made Sweden angry (Sweden, however, wasn't angry; he simply couldn't hear him) and introduces himself. Sweden later states that he wants Estonia and Latvia to come with him, but Estonia nervously says that it's not possible while Latvia adds they need Poland's permission first.\nDetermined, Poland tries to stand his ground against Sweden, but later he ends up getting \"stranger anxiety\" and he is given partially custody of Estonia and Latvia. In the volume 4 omake comic, Estonia writes that when Sweden looks down at him, he feels as if Sweden might want to kill him.\n\nFinland\nMain article: Finland\n\n\nSweden, Hanatamago and Finland in Our Failure\nFinland lived with Sweden for quite some time as part of the Swedish Empire, but their on-screen interactions properly start when the two of them leave Denmark's house (symbolizing the Kalmar Union) after Sweden got tired of being mistreated (events of \"Running Away With Mr. Sve\"[4] adapted in Episode 69).\nTheir relationship gets a very rocky start, as Finland finds Sweden's aloof behavior and constant scowl unsettling. However, since he didn't have any other options, he stayed with Sweden. Together, they went on to visit Estonia(\"The Violent Mr. Sve of Northern Europe Takes a Swing\" [10] and Episode 70), and Sweden offered the Baltics to come join them as family. Polandrefused to let them go, but in the end, Sweden gained partial custody of both Estonia and Latvia. This is also when Sweden first calls Finland his \"wife\", although Finland insists that he's not. He denies it again multiple times in the Christmas 2007 Event when it is mentioned by fans.[11]\nFinland refers to Sweden as Su-san (スーさん, \"Mr. Sve\",[Note 8] translated as \"Mr. Sweden\" in the English dub).\nThey end up living together in a house they built themselves, and they can be seen in their domestic life in strips from \"Comic Diary Summary Part 7\"[7] and \"Comic Diary Summary Part 11\"[12]. Around that time, they also find a stray puppy in their backyard, which they adopt and name Hanatamago. Finland remained under Swedish rule for a couple centuries afterwards, sticking with Sweden through thick and thin, such as during the Battle of Grunwald and more largely the Polish-Swedish Wars (The Ruler of Scandinavia and the King of Eastern Europe and \"matching strip\"[13]), or aftermath of the Kalmar Union (\"Nordic Manga Summary\"[14]).\nAfter that, Finland had to live with Russia for a while, and while none of it is actually shown in Hetalia, a strip from \"Comic Diary Summary Part 5\"[15] and Episode 82 show their reunion. Finland states that he had more freedom with Russia (to Sweden's shock), but had more fun during his time with Sweden. Despite that, he happily accepts Sweden's secret support during the Winter War, as shown in a strip[16] from the \"Christmas 2011 Event\".\nFinland and Sweden remain close in the modern day, hanging out by themselves or together with the rest of the Nordics. Finland found Sweden to be frightening at first despite the former's attempt at gentleness, though warmed up to him over time. In \"The Nordic Five +α\"[17] and matching episode, Finland describes him as soft-hearted and always coming to his help, and \"All the Best For 2009!\"[18] shows a rare instance of Sweden speaking in full sentences while they're enjoying New Year's Eve by themselves.\nThere is also a chance of them living together once more, though evidence of that so far is unclear. Although it's unconfirmed whether or not Sweden and Finland are actual housemates in the present day, they appear to have lived together multiple times (such as in the strip \"Mr. Sve And The Dog\",[19] or anime episodes 69 and 70 where Finland mentions that he'll have to live with Sweden). The strip and matching episode \"The Creation of Dambolis\"[20] as well as \"World☆Stars Chapter 224\"[21] adapted in Get Better! also seem to hint at them living together. Additionally, in response to an ask during the \"Christmas 2007 Event\"[11] about who between Finland and Sweden does the cooking, Finland replies that they take turns, further suggesting they live under the same roof.\nAdditionally, it has been said by Himaruya that Sweden is homosexual, and only has strong feelings for Finland.[1][Note 2] However, it is unconfirmed as to whether or not Finland returns those feelings.\n\nLadonia\nMain article: Ladonia\nLadonia lives on Swedish territory, but declared himself independent from Sweden in a typical act of a child who believes they are a functional grown-up.[22][Note 9] Ladonia behaves in an especially petulant way towards Sweden, wanting to feel like he has the upper hand on the older Nation. Because of his playful nature, Sweden happily obliges him and engages in scripted roleplays, in which Ladonia mercilessly defeats him.[22][23] One instance had Sweden prompt one of these roleplays to distract an upset Ladonia from thoughts about being on Santa's naughty list.\nDespite seemingly wanting to put distance between him and Sweden, Ladonia is still seen around him a lot. In a strip from the \"Halloween 2013/2014 Event\",[24] Ladonia boasts about \"having made Sweden cry before he came over\", which in reality was merely Ladonia telling Sweden that he'd be attending the Halloween party without him (which Sweden was supportive of). This same strip mentions that Ladonia gets angry when \"Sweden comes along and puts him away\".[Note 10]\nLadonia usually addresses Sweden as Sve/Swe(スー),[Note 11] but caught himself almost calling Sweden \"papa\" at one point.[citation needed] He also does seem to spend some time at Sweden's house considering how often they are seen interacting together, and this is further hinted at in the \"Christmas 2011 Event\",[25] where Ladonia and the Nordics wait for Santa to arrive at Sweden's house.[Note 12] More recently, in \"World☆Stars Chapter 496\",[26] Wy confronts Ladonia about the fact that Sweden is supposed to be his guardian, which Ladonia immediately denies by claiming he is way stronger than Sweden.\n\nPrussia\nMain article: Prussia\nIn Cleaning Mr. Prussia,[27] it is revealed that Prussia is afraid of Sweden and has unpleasant flashbacks about the Great Northern War. It is also mentioned that he doesn't understand and know how to communicate with Sweden, even with his \"Northern German sixth sense\".[Note 13] Despite this, Prussia decides to go to Sweden's house anyway in hopes that he will be sold cheap Ikea furniture as a reward. When he arrives, he immediately faints at the sight of Sweden's face. When he awakes inside Sweden's home and sees his scowling face looming over him, he faints again. This process is said to have repeated another twelve times, which then leads to a bad ending.\nTogether with Poland, Prussia is the only character who is still actively frightened of Sweden because of past events. Additionally, Sweden is the only Nation Prussia fears so badly.\nSealand\nMain article: Sealand\n\n\nSweden and Sealand in What Italy Forgot\nIn 2007, Sweden bought Sealand after the latter auctioned himself online (Sweden won because he was the only bidder).[28][Note 14] Since then, Sweden has attempted to be a father figure to the micronation despite Sealand acting like a typical pre-teen, who would rather pursue his own interests and goals than spend time with Sweden (as in \"The Creation of Dambolis\"[20] and What Italy Forgot).\nDespite that, Sealand has accepted Sweden as his adoptive dad. Sweden is referred to as his \"papa\" on multiple occasions,[29][20][30] and it has also been implied that Sealand at least periodically stays at Sweden's house (such as in \"The Nice Products that Come from Scandinavia are...\"[31]adapted in Episode 79, or \"The Creation of Dambolis\"[20] adapted in What Italy Forgot, but also during the \"Halloween 2013/2014 Event\"[24]where Ladonia tells Sealand that he has a \"proper house\", before Sealand offers to go to Sweden's place)\n\nSwitzerland:\n\nSwitzerland (スイス, Suisu) is a supporting character in the series Hetalia. He is the personification of Switzerland\n\nHe is a short young man with blond hair (in a chin-length bob cut) and green eyes. He wears a green jacket, brown pants, and a white hat, and is often seen having a rifle slung over his shoulder. In one drawing he was shown with an 'X' shaped scar on his left shoulder, but in subsequent drawings the scar has not been present. Personality\n\n\nSwitzerland is seemingly eternally neutral and lives his life as a hermit/recluse, surrounded by the Alps. He maintains his cool air of complete indifference.\nThough he appears to be peaceful, he actually is one of the biggest producers of guns in the world. He hates outsiders and, in the past, he was hired by the Vatican as a mercenary.\nMost likely due to past hardships, he is also very frugal and cautious of spending; often preferring to purchase cheaper or more efficient things and rarely splurging. He is shown to have quite a temper and is snippy with others but has a soft spot for Liechtenstein and is extremely protective and doting of her. He will listen to those who want to consult to him with their situation at hand but don't expect any consolation from him, if he doesn't hang up on you is considered nice enough.\nDue to Italy Veneziano's habits of forgetting his pants and streaking, Switzerland becomes trigger-happy if he catches him running through his property. He is protective of his borders and is not afraid to shoot at someone who was not allowed to cross the border. Relationships\n\n\n\nLiechtenstein\nMain article: Liechtenstein\n\n\nLiechtenstein giving Switzerland a gift \nHe is a doting older brother to Liechtenstein, having found her during WWI and taken her into his care due to Liechtenstein's major food shortage and economic devastation at the time. Since they adopted each other as siblings, Switzerland genuinely does what he can to make sure she is happy and well taken care of; even purchasing her trademark ribbon when she cut her hair, so she would stop being mistaken for a boy. The close relationship that he shares with her, however, reminds him of his childhood days with Austria, which he has tried to forget.\nIn Episode 44 (which adapts a part of \"Liechtenstein's Journal Of Swiss Dopiness\"), Switzerland attempts to teach Liechtenstein self-defense, warning her to stay away from other nations. However, Liechtenstein is drawn to Switzerland's drawings of stick figures (representing himself, Liechtenstein, and Austria) on the chalkboard. She requests if he could draw them again on a separate sheet of paper for her.\nLater, the relenting Switzerland agrees to draw for Liechtenstein, as she thought his drawings would make cute stamps.\nLiechtenstein is shown to be very appreciative of Switzerland, spending much of her time with him, and even cutting her hair to look like Switzerland's signature chin-length bob. In Episode 25 (which adapts another part of \"Liechtenstein's Journal Of Swiss Dopiness\"), Liechtenstein makes Switzerland a pair of pink pajamas, a gift for all he has done for her. Switzerland comments how she didn't need to do that, but accepts that gift.\n\nAustria\nMain article: Austria\n\n\nAustria and Switzerland as children \nThey were very close as children, though Switzerland expressed irritation at the fact that he taught Austria to be a fighter, only for him to keep failing and having to be bailed out when it came to wars, as seen in Episode. However, due to Austria's boss claiming Switzerland was his property, their bond quickly shattered. In their adulthood, Switzerland does all he can to deny that he was ever friends with Austria or had any close connection to him. \nIt is also possible they are family due to the fact that in a request comic during the \"Christmas 2011\" event, Germania claimed that Switzerland and Austria were both his family members, but it is unknown if they are actually related, and it was not stated in the Hetalia☆Collezione.[Note 4]\nIn modern day, Austria and Switzerland appear to have a friendly relationship, having moved past their previous grudges. In Episode 24 (adapting \"Liechtenstein's Journal of Swiss Dopiness\"), Switzerland (accompanied by Liechtenstein) attends a lunch with Austria.\n\n\nAmerica praising Switzerland's cheese fondue. \n\nAmerica\nMain article: America\nSwitzerland seems to find America somewhat annoying, as the younger nation is similar to Italy; getting too close or crossing the Swiss borders without permission, and asking for sensitive information regarding other nations. On America's birthday, Switzerland have him a shock watch to prevent him from entering his country.\nAmerica also seems quite fond of Switzerland's cheese fondue, praising him for it and telling the flushed Switzerland that he should get recognized for \"making such interesting things\". \nGermany\nMain article: Germany\nAustria said in a \"Christmas 2011\" panel that Switzerland is unusually on good terms with Germany. Switzerland soon slightly blushed at this comment since he actually has a high degree of dependence on Germany for trade, electricity and other aspects.\nIt is also possible that the two might be related, as Germania claimed that Austria and Switzerland were both his family members, and Germania is the canon grandfather of Germany[Note 5][Note 6]. However, whether or not Germania's claim about Switzerland is true is unknown.[Note 7]\n\nItaly Veneziano\nMain article: Italy Veneziano\nSwitzerland is annoyed by Italy's constant trespassing on his lands, as seen in a comic strip featuring Italy thinking about how much faster it is for him to go to Germany's house by passing through Switzerland.\nFurthermore, in the anime, Italy has trespassed twice onto Swiss territory (in Episode 72 and Episode 88), and both times, Switzerland threatened the terrified Italy.\n\nUkraine:\n\nUkraine (ヨウクライン, ウクライナ, Ukuraina) is a supporting character in the series Hetalia. She is the personification of Ukraine. Ukraine has light blue eyes and short blonde hair, which she keeps held back with a white headband and a blue or yellow hair clip. \nHer most notable physical feature, however, is her large breast size, representing Ukraine's status as a major agricultural nation (\"large tracts of land\"). She can also be seen carrying a pitchfork at times and some Easter eggs.\n\nPersonality\n\n\nUkraine is the oldest of the three siblings and is constantly getting dragged into some sort of mess. She is described by her brother as being very warm-hearted and motherly, having taken care of him and Belarus when they were little, and as shown in Episode 43, she gave Russia his signature scarf. She apparently has chest and back pains due to her assets. \nUkraine also shows maternal tendencies to other ex-Soviets, Poland, and to characters outside her family as well.\nRussia also notes that she is a bit of a cry-baby and her heart is too big, making her an easy target. She desires to make friends in the West after her independence, but it appears she's struggling.\nIt is later stated in the Axis Powers: Volume 3notes and her Axis Powers: Volume 4 profile that despite her soft appearance, she is also a 'fearsome' older sister and can stand her ground.\nThe Sealand and Latvia desktop mascot reveals that Ukraine is known for her surreal \"guro\" horror games.\n\nRelationships\n\n\n\nBelarus\nMain Article: Belarus\nUkraine is Belarus' older sister, and has taken care of both her and Belarus when they were children. However, it has been shown that Belarus seems to scare Ukraine, though Ukraine is still worried about her. In their character song, Carrot and Stick, it is implied they have a rivalry obtaining Russia'saffections, as Belarus calls Ukraine \"unforgiving\", \"irredeemable\", and \"inexcusable\", to which Ukraine apologies for being a \"bewitching older sister\". \nAdditionally, Ukraine tries to ease Belarus' rather questionable methods of revenge, as further seen in Carrot and Stick, when Belarus threatens to boil Ukraine in a pechka[Note 13], Ukraine responds to this by recommending they make bread instead, saying it to be a \"simple and happy thing to warm your stomach\". However, there are also implications that Belarus has an attachment to Ukraine. In her appearance in the Sealand and Latvia desktop mascots, a possible entry of her diary she'll read for you involves her spending three hours massaging Ukraine's breasts or stretching her headband. It also contained an entry in which she went through her garbage bags. There was also an intimidating shadow resembling Belarus creeping up behind Ukraine when Italy tried flirting with her. \n\nADVERTISEMENT\nRussia\nMain article: Russia\n\n\nRussia wearing the scarf Ukraine gave him \nUkraine is Russia's older sister, and took care of both him and Belarus when they were younger. She is also the one who gave Russia his signature scarf, as shown in Episode 43 (which adapts part of \"Russia's Older and Younger Sister\"). When Russia asks how he can repay her, she responds by telling him he can make her the primary successor of Kyivan Rus'. Additionally, in Russia and Friends, a young Russia trusts his sister enough to ask for advice regarding the Teutonic Knights and the Golden Horde's constant invasion, though Ukraine tells him to \"show them your breasts\", to which Russia runs away, horrified by his sister's rather oblivious response. \nEpisode 43 also touches on the dissolution of the Soviet Union, and notes that Ukraine left Russia, believing it would only be worse for the both of them if she stayed. Despite her leave, she wishes to be with him again, though she usually winds up running away at the chance due to the issues rising between them[Note 14], and the fact that Ukraine's boss forbade her from seeing Russia. This forced separation her boss inflicted onto her and Russia also prevents Ukraine from giving him freshly baked snacks.\nDespite that she has to keep distant from him, on occasion, Ukraine is shown to spend time with him and even joined in the group costume for Halloween.\n\nADVERTISEMENT\nBelgium\nMain article: Belgium\nUkraine and Belgium have only briefly interacted in one sketch and one comic, but they (and the female nations in general) are shown to be good friends. During the 2011 Halloween Event, Himaruya posted a comic including most of the female nations who existed at the time, where they held a meeting together to reflect on the year. In the meeting, Belgium said that she felt bad that she did not try very hard in the past year. Ukraine responded and notes Belgium did try hard, and then went on to say she herself thought she spent too much time in front of the camera. \nIn a 2013 blog post, Himaruya posted a drawing including Belgium, Belarus, Ukraine, and Hungary, in which Belgium was worried about looking plain compared to her flashy neighbors. Ukraine then advised her to \"just show off [her] breasts\" and make worldwide news.\nHungary and Liechtenstein\n\n\nHungary, Ukraine, and Liechtenstein discussing fashion \nMain Article: Hungary and Liechtenstein\nThe three of them seem to be good friends. In Axis Powers: Volume 4's \"A History of Interesting Clothes\", they had a friendly chat about the dressing costumes in their countries. They even refer to each other using nicknames rather than their full names.\n\nWales:\n\nWales (ウェールズ, U~ēruzu) is a supporting character in the series Hetalia. He is the personification of Wales. Main article: Wales/Uniform Guide\nWales has blond hair parted to the left. He has a long fringe which falls into his face, and is mostly swept to the side save for a lock the comes between his eyes. Like all of his brothers, he has thick eyebrows and green eyes. He appears to be the shortest of the UK brothers. Personality\n\n\nWales loves fantasy and magical creatures, especially dragons, his national animal. He's very friendly and approachable, sometimes may even come off as childish. He also has a 'creepy' side, shown when he was arguing with Scotland over King Arthur's origin. \nRelationships\n\n\n\nScotland\nMain article: Scotland\nScotland is Wales' brother. They have a dispute over where King Arthur originates from, but other than that their relationship is fairly friendly.\nEngland\nMain article: England\nWales is England's big brother, as agreed upon by the United Kingdom brothers' house rules. He has spent a long time together with England, so he secretly believes he understands him the most. At the same time, Wales admits to never winning against Britain in an argument but believes that he can out do him in fantasies.\n\nNorthern Ireland\nMain article: Northern Ireland\nNorthern Ireland is Wales' brother.\n\n[all European characters are 18+ or older]\n\nCyprus: Cyprus (キプロス, Kipurosu) is a supporting character in the series Hetalia. He is the personification of Cyprus.\n\nADVERTISEMENT\nPhysical Appearance\n\n\n\n\n\nCyprus has shaggy hair which is notably longer on his right side (left from the audience perspective), seemingly referring to the peninsula on the northeast part of the island. The subtle curl in the center of his forehead seems to have waned since his earlier designs. His official color scheme has yet to be released, but his eyes and hair appear dark. \nA rough chibi sketch depicts him wearing a baggy t-shirt, pants and an earring.\nPersonality\n\n\nThree years prior to his manga debut, his only appearance was on the drama CD \"Axis Powers Hetalia: The CD\" in the track The Flag of Cyprus. In that track, he is shown to be a very expressive and polite young man, who is very much of a peace-lover. A Mediterranean nation who was once under the control of the Ottoman Empire and England. He openly scolds Greece and Turkey for fighting and wants to live a peaceful life. His appearance in volume 4 reinforces that Greece and Turkey's rivalry is one thing that will frequently make him break his peaceful manner and become agitated.\nHe is a bed-wetter, and apparently pees in the shape of the Cyprus island (this is just a joke and should not be taken seriously). Character notes reveal that he is cool, composed, and easy-going, but is \"quite busy\" due to Turkey and Greece's arguing. During the Christmas 2011 event, he reveals that he loves the special atmosphere of the holiday and states that he is in a cheerful mood. Relationships\n\n\n\nGreece\nMain article: Greece\nCyprus seems rather close to Greece. Though he was surprised at the fact that him and Turkey were close enough to take baths together because he’s only ever known them to argue.\nTurkey\nMain article: Turkey\nWhile it has been mentioned that Turkey changed Cyprus's diapers growing up, Cyprus doesn't really know how to deal with Turkey, to the point where he'll ask TRNC to \"take the old man away\". Turkey wants Cyprus to come live with him and TRNC, in hopes that this will help TRNC grow up.\nTurkish Republic of Northern Cyprus\nMain article: Turkish Republic of Northern Cyprus\nThe immediate relationship of the two Cypriots is not thoroughly explored, though they do speak to one another a few times. While Greece is antagonistic toward TRNC in the audio drama, Cyprus does not partake in these interactions. In turn, TRNC openly dislikes Greece's ideals and beliefs, but does not direct hostility toward Cyprus. It is also implied that Cyprus and Northern Cyprus do not harbor hatred for each other. \nEngland\nMain article: England\nAlthough they still have not interacted yet, in the World☆Stars Chapter 479[1] when asked about his opinion about the UK brothers leaving the UE he said that he doesn't talk with them so much. After this, he give his impression of England stating that he is a polite and prestigious country. Cyprus also thinks that England is open-minded and that he gets rowdy when it's drunk[2]. Due to Cyprus being a former UK colony it could seem that he thinks highly and positive of England as said by him.\n\nHong Kong: Hong Kong (香港 Honkon) is a supporting character in the series Hetalia. He is the personification of Hong Kong.\n\nADVERTISEMENT\nPhysical Appearance\n\n\n\n\nChibi Hong Kong from Axis Powers Volume 4\nHong Kong has choppy dark brown hair that comes down to his jaw and lighter brown eyes. He wears a burgundy duangua with black trim and oversized sleeves, and dark brown trousers. His eyebrows are noticeably thicker than the other Asian characters, due to a curse put on him by England.\nIn several design sketches, he has a gold sash around his waist, and wears long white spats over his boots. In other early sketches, his duangua is fastened down the front.\nPersonality\n\n\nA “going-my-way”, businesslike young man who loves fashion and is a gourmet could be described as the main traits of Hong Kong. His hobby is to meddle with England and China whenever they meet with him and he really loves rumors, real estate, fashionable things, and “の”.\nLittle is known about Hong Kong, other than that he was under British control for many years and the property of England, who cursed him to have thick eyebrows. It is noted that one cannot really tell what is on his mind, due to his lack of showing visible emotion. He also doesn't prefer the darkness and has an unnatural liking towards money, as shown in the comic strips.\nHe speaks in a mixture of Japanese and English, (sometimes Cantonese) with a Gyaru-o dialect. Before appearing in the fake preview for Hetalia: Axis Powers volume 3 where he \"promised\" China he would not draw explicit pictures anymore, he appeared in artwork for the series and was featured in the profile page of the second volume of Hetalia: Axis Powers.\nHe is afraid of the dark, and China reveals that Hong Kong rarely gets drunk. If he does, it'll take a lot of amount to do so. He refuses to wear a maid dress and chooses to be naked, claiming to a shocked China that \"If this was a movie, Jackie would do the same!\".\nHe is also labelled as one of the \"younger, sensitive ones\" by Hungary during the Halloween 2010 Event where she needs to share a ghost story. Hong Kong responds by saying that he's thrilled with exciting and new things.\nRelationships\n\n\n\nChina\nMain article: China\nChina and Hong Kong have a very close relationship, with Hong Kong admitting that no one knows China better than him. China had raised the latter before he became British territory. The two were eventually reunited when England's control ceased, though Hong Kong is no longer the same person that he was before his time under British rule. China put the blame on Britain.\nEver since then, Hong Kong has been rebelling against China and has requested freedom, claiming China was too outdated. It was also revealed that Hong Kong keeps a book of funny pictures of China. He respectfully refers to China as Xiansheng.\nEngland\nMain article: England\nHong Kong was under his control for many years, and was often scolded for lighting loud firecrackers, which would constantly startle England. By the time Hong Kong returned to his \"siblings\", England had cursed his eyebrows to grow thick just like his.\nKorea\nMain article: Korea\nHong Kong had in an occasion to come fetch Korea for an important meeting. It is no secret between the two of them that Korea is a gaming Otaku who claimed that he has a sensitive and cute and cool image in Hong Kong's eyes, which Hong Kong denied it to be true. He is the only one in the series to ever see Korea in his gaming 'den' while wearing his jersey and glasses.\nGermany once voiced that they're hard to get along with each other because of Korea's energetic personality and Hong Kong's expressionless dominance despite both of them being Asian.\nMacau\nMain article: Macau\nAmong everyone, Macau is one of the few people that could relate very well to Hong Kong. They are both good business and cultural partners other than being close neighbors. When Macau was living in Portugal's house, he handed the role of Asia's centralized trading port to him. Even when Hong Kong had a rapid growth, Macau restfully watched him without rivalry and sought his own connections in Europe.\nNowadays, they joke together in various occasions and Macau sees him as a little brother. In a character note, it addressed Macau as an older brother, but it's unknown if this is just a familiarity or a true title for him to be related with another country. Hong Kong could possibly be his younger brother.\nTaiwan\nMain article: Taiwan\nTaiwan and Hong Kong have been shown together a few times. In one strip, Taiwan asked Hong Kong for his help in (unsuccessfully) rearranging her room to be more appealing. In another strip called Taiwan's Lantern festival, she provokes Hong Kong to not wish for money as he could wish for anything else besides it. Hong Kong is surprised that other people wish for something else other than money.\nIceland\nMain article: Iceland\nIceland and Hong Kong seem to be very close friends. At America's 2011 Halloween party, they stood together wondering what was amiss about the party, and later when America and Englandappeared on the stage and Iceland finally realized that the \"empty feeling\" was England not being there to rant about various things, Hong Kong appeared behind him and put a hand on his shoulder, asking him about how he was feeling. He teasingly reminded Iceland that he said it was lonely without England around and asked again how Iceland felt now that Hong Kong was talking to him. \nThe two also spend time together during the 2013 Halloween party, being shown talking and joking together and having other interactions as well. At one point during the party, Hong Kong suggested to the entire group that they should tell the scary story inspirations behind their costumes, to which Iceland reacted by looking shocked and asking if he was stupid. Later, the two stand together with Liechtenstein as Hungary worries if her story would be too scary for \"the young ones\", the three of them, to hear. After that, Hong Kong and Iceland are seen again later sitting very close together on the couch as Hong Kong and Moldovaegg Iceland on to tell his scary story.\n\nIndia: India (インド, Indo) is a supporting character in the series Hetalia. He is the personification of India.\n\nADVERTISEMENT\nPhysical Appearance\n\n\n\n\nChibi India from World☆Stars Chapter 195\nIndia is a short, slender man with pale brown skin, dark brown hair parted at the middle, and amber eyes.

India speaks with the standard Japanese dialect and often uses \"namaste\" (Hindi for \"hello\") as a salutation. He also has a positive spirit and is somewhat eccentric in personality. In Volume 5, India is mentioned to be extraordinarily skilled at mathematics and arguing and emits the intense aura of a prince. He is also said to have \"going my way\" thoughts that overwhelm other countries. He is shown to love elephants, as he appears as a member of the Elephant Appreciation Club in the Go Forth!

The two briefly argue before the entire strip is revealed to be Lithuania's dream.\nEngland\nMain article: England\n\n\nEngland (far left) and India (right) enjoying tea together. \nIn the Hetalia of the Dead strips found in the fourth volume of the manga, India is mentioned to have lent England a horror movie from his house, which the Allies and Axis watch together. The movie's villain is shown to be chasing the protagonist, at which point Indian music and dancing spontaneously break out, to everyone's surprise and confusion. In the Hetalia World Stars Manga, it is shown that India respects England as he uses the Indian honorific 'Ji' for him.\nPrussia\nMain article: Prussia\nForbidden to go to the Halloween party in the Halloween 2011 Event, Prussia vents his complaints on the Internet when India introduces himself to Prussia and invites him to go to the party with his group, as India's group was short one person. In disbelief, Prussia asks what it is before accepting India's invitation. Showing up without the Axis knowing, India and Prussia shows up spontaneously from a crowd of Bollywood dancers and music wearing fedoras and wielding canes, Prussia stumbling behind India. Seeing Prussia, Germany is stunned beyond words.\nRussia\nMain Article: Russia\nNothing much is said about their relationship but in the Christmas 2011 Event, he argues with China over whose relationship with Russia is better and India claims to have good relations with Russia for a century.\nThailand\nMain Article: Thailand\nThailand appears to get along well with India since they are elephant lovers.\n\nIndonesia: Indonesia (インドネシア, Indonesia) is a supporting character in the series Hetalia.

He is seen to be a casual person who is not used to formal situation.\nHe is often described as a bit of an airhead. \nIndonesia thinks dark places are scary because ghosts might appear there. \nIndonesia likes sweets just like the other ASEAN countries.\nHe is also described that even if there are things or situations that he thinks is unpleasant, he often says \"tidak apa-apa!\"/\"Gakpapa kok!\" (it's okay!)\n\nIndonesia (インドネシア, Indonesia) is a supporting character in the series Hetalia. He is the personification of Indonesia.\n\n\nKorea: the series Hetalia. He is the personification of Korea, specifically South Korea.\nIn 2007, Himaruya gave out human names to some of the characters, and he received the name, Im Yong Soo (任勇洙, Imu Yon Su; Korean: 임용수). \n\nADVERTISEMENT\nPhysical Appearance\n\n\n\n\nChibi Korea from 2011[1]\nKorea has short black hair, with a flyaway curl on the right side of his head. The curl is often drawn with a face in the middle, to represent his \"Korean spirit\". He dresses in a white and navy blue hanbok with long oversized sleeves, though it appears to be a mixture of the male and female styles of hanbok as well as hanbok from different eras of Korea, and his jeogori seems to be in two pieces rather than one.\nHis actual height is not stated, but it is mentioned that he is significantly taller than both of his \"brothers\", and that he happens to be very muscular due to his experience in the military.\nIt is revealed that Korea is actually photogenic. While he and China were \"making\" an anime, he accidentally fell asleep while China went out to get dinner. China got out a camera, threatening to get revenge for the Beijing Olympics, but once he aimed the camera at Korea's face, his facial features became handsome. China, however, thought Byung Hun Lee was in the room.\nPersonality\n\n\nKorea is a free-spirited type, obsessed with video games, dramas, studying abroad, and the internet. He always claims credit for others' inventions, and feels that his older brothers should call him their older brother.\nThough he is fundamentally serious and likes to put the family first, he can't keep his hands off his brothers. He often uses phrases like, \"Da-ze!\" or \"Uri nara mansae!\", which means roughly \"Hooray for our land!\". When speaking to elders, however, he adopts more formal and polite speech.\nIt is said that he loves kimchi so much that he took it up into outer space, causing France to become annoyed.\nKorea has also been shown to be very good at drawing, as can be seen in a comic strip with China in which he tried to teach his older brother how to draw anime.\nIt is also shown that Korea is very bright seeing that he was able to create the Mind-Reading Binoculars perfectly when Japan failed to do so. But the same comic strip also reveals how clueless he is when he tries to use the binoculars to see what China was thinking of him, only to be devastated to see that China is glad that Korea took the stuffed animals because he didn't want them. Korea concluded that \"Korea didn't make them\" because he believed they didn't work.\nRelationships\n\n\n\nChina\nMain article: China\nHe is obsessed with China and wants to be acknowledged by him, but his feelings are unrequited. When he \"invented\" a pair of mind-reading binoculars and saw that China despaired of his very presence, he believed that they were broken and as a result, he denied making them.\nIn another modern strip, he and China worked together in animation production.\nHong Kong\nMain article: Hong Kong\nHong Kong is the most exposed one to Korea's significant hobby of playing video games. In a comic strip, Hong Kong budged in Korea's room when the nation was busy trying to defeat an enemy in a MMO and dragged him to the meeting place. Apparently, Korea admitted that he was seen as cool and cute and sensitive image by Hong Kong but the latter barely twitched in annoyance.\nIn all the series, Hong Kong was the only one to ever see Korea wearing his gaming jersey and square glasses. They are shown to be close even though Germany stated that they appeared to be hard to get along.\nJapan\nMain article: Japan\nHe constantly claims to hate Japan, which is likely due to the controversial claim against Japan. Japan has apologized in the past, but the current Japanese government continues to deny their past crimes and Korea continues to ignore Japan's replies. It is also possible he doesn't view this as atonement enough. Japan says he doesn't hate Korea, but Japan openly ignores Korea. The setting of Korea is based on the claims of Japan's dislike of Korea.\nIt's seen that Korea is 'constantly copying his style and creations', yet there is no doubt that Japan has actually stolen ideas from Korea. At one point, he wanted to dig a tunnel to connect both their countries. He tried to justify his complicated relationship with the claim that tsundereoriginated from him.\nAmerica\nMain article: America\nIn the original World Conference strip, it is shown that he will go out of his way to disagree with any of Japan's opinions, preferring to side with America instead even when Japan and America has already agreed.\nCanada\nMain article: Canada\nIn one of the comics/little summary of South Korea, Canada is mentioned as “it appears like Canada is his favorite...” Other than that, we aren’t given more clues on why Canada is his favorite, other than the little summary.\nEngland\nMain Article: England\nKorea, after telling Japan and China that they should call him \"big brother\" and he should be the boss of them, was turned into a child by England in order to \"help\" Japan and China. He said that, because he was so cute that even if he was loud they would forgive him. China and Japan admitted he was cute and that it could work out as England had intended, however they left him with England after finding that he still had a strong interest in their chests (young Korea was seen with a bump on his head, as well.)\n\nMacau: Macau (マカオ Makao) is a supporting character in the series Hetalia.

He is not greedy by nature despite the high presence of gambling in the region, with him described to be gambling quietly in a dimly lit room in a character note. He is the oldest trading hub in Asia.\nHe appears calm and good at business and tries to be philosophical, however, there seems to be another part to him that has yet to be elaborated on. In foreign countries, this easygoing manner is called \"relaxed governing.\" While he also operates in a business-like manner, he jokes around with Portugal, China, and Hong Kong, and treats Taiwan like a proper lady.\nHis underlings, too, are skillful, and cooking and making toys and textiles are specialties. Their number one specialty is porcelain and ceramics. He doesn't know much about politics and he likes to see everyone in a good mood.\nRelationships\n\n\n\nChina\nMain article: China\nChina gets along with Macau, better than Hong Kong or Taiwan.

Macau also received his formal name, \"Macau Which Carries the Name of a Most Faithful God\", from Portugal.\nThe two are shown to have been friends long before Macau became Portugal's underling. During the 15th and 16th century, the teenaged duo made huge profits through trade in Asia, and Portugal referred to them as a \"dream team\". When Netherlands wanted to take Macau from him, Portugal refused, because Macau was his \"best friend\". He went to war with the Netherlands over it, and after a loss, Macau was seen comforting Portugal and asking him to cheer up. Macau slater showed concern for Portugal as he struggled during the Industrial Revolution, though Portugal blamed himself for making things difficult for Macau.

Malaysia complained about Singapore's cold attitude to the point he even threatened Malaysia. However, Indonesia disagree since it is hard to believe for Singapore to act in such a way because Singapore smiles a lot. \nWhen Malaysia stated that he, himself, is someone special to Singapore with enthusiasms, Indonesia praises Malaysia's positivity and would want to learn from him.\nPhilippines\nMain article: Philippines\nPhilippines is seen to be distracted while Malaysia is complaining about Singapore.

During his commercial modeling, he wears fashionable outfits such as turtleneck sweaters, waiter suits and beach outfits like shorts and jackets.\nPersonality\n\n\nSingapore is described as a nation with different cultures in each area due to his history as a port.\nHe is thought of as a fashionable person who loves to clean up but in reality, he has a messy room.\nHe is unexpectedly strong minded. In a world survey, other nations saw him as gentle and polite, with a beautiful smile while Malaysia was curious about his personality towards other nations since he bares his teeth towards him.\nSingapore is a genius nation who is good at creating sight-seeing attractions and is a gourmet who makes stylish dishes which showcases all the diverse cultures of Singapore. He himself declares that he may be small, but his tastes are the size of the world. Singapore also owns cute merchandises such as Merlion plushies and notably owns a pair of pineapple tart glasses.\nSince Singapore is a \"fine\" country, he will either fine you for breaking illegal laws or fine being safe in Singapore.\nRelationships\n\n\n\n\nHimaruya's sketch of Singapore that he posted on his own birthday \nMalaysia\nMain article: Malaysia\nSingapore lived in the same house as Malaysia, and Malaysia considers himself Singapore's big brother. However, Singapore does not want to call Malaysia 'big brother', he will pretend that Malaysia had mistaken him for another country when Malaysia refers to him as 'brother', as well as wear pineapple tart glasses to avoid being able to see a list of names (which contains 'big brother' in various languages) that Malaysia wants him to call him.\nSingapore and Malaysia get quite heated up over their water bill, and he does not treat Malaysia that well as a result.\nPhilippines\nMain article: Philippines\nSingapore seems to have a good relationship with Philippines as he always supports his ideas and suggestions, such as having an outdoor non-western style of meeting. In Hetalia☆Collezione, published in 2021, he describes Philippines as a bright man with a good sense of branding.\nASEAN\nLike other Southeast Asian countries, he has a good relationship with his neighbors although he sometimes conflicts with Malaysia.\n\nTaiwan:\n\nTaiwan (台灣, Taiwan) is a supporting character in the series Hetalia. She is the personification of Taiwan (which is officially known as the Republic of China). Taiwan is a teenage girl who wears a peach (or bright pink)-colored qipao with gold trim and long, flowing sleeves, and a long white skirt.\nHer hair is long and brown, with a wild curly strand sticking out on the right side of her head. She wears pink flowers in her hair, and a chibi sketch of her by Himaruya revealed that she has a flower-shaped birthmark (or tattoo) on her left thigh.\nBefore having the current appearance, Taiwan used to have many changes in clothes and hairstyles. In an earlier sketch, her qipao was drawn a little differently, she tied her hair into a side ponytail with some flowers pinned up in her hair. Another original design showing a different style of qipao and her flowers.\nPersonality\n\n\nTaiwan is described as a vivacious, strong-willed, active, easy-going and fashion-loving young girl, but she is also said to have become the nervous type lately, unable to stop worrying. Most of the time she is very positive and cheerful and enjoys Japan's \"kawaii\" culture very much. She is also a great cook. Her hobbies include annoying China.\nHer role in the drama track for the eighth Hetalia character CD predates any manga or anime appearance (as with Hong Kong, who appeared in Hetalia Fantasia). There, she is described as a rather intelligent, active girl with a slightly quick temper and very cheerful. Relationships\n\n\n\nChina\nMain article: China\n\n\nTaiwan wants China to back off from Japan.\nShe called him a \"teacher\" in the drama CD, but called him a \"bastard\" in the previous sketch. An early illustration shows that she dislikes China and is more interested in Japan, she thinks that China should leave him alone. In the drama CD, she treats him in a slightly more friendly way, but still has very low patience for China's quirks.\nJapan\nMain article: Japan\nInstead of China, she prefers Japan, much to China's dismay. This could stem from the real life fact of China's repeated dismissal of Taiwan's sovereignty, and the general well-being and mutual respect between the real life islands. It is also possible that this is a reference to Japan's colonial rule over Taiwan before WWII.\nRecently, in Chapter 42 of Hetalia: World Stars, she gave chocolates to Japan on Valentine's Day.\nVietnam\nMain article: Vietnam\nTaiwan and Vietnam seem to get along well with each other, although their personalities have big differences in character. Taiwan took Vietnam out to take pictures together, to her initial disappointment. Taiwan lent Vietnam a costume for Halloween.\nHong Kong\nMain article: Hong Kong\nTaiwan once had a bet with Hong Kong and Macau on what will China wear, on which she lost. She also once asked Hong Kong's help to clean her room.\nIn the Taiwan's Lantern Festival strip, she confronted Hong Kong to not wish for money this year and wish for something else instead. Hong Kong had a surprised face as he asked out in disbelief that other people wished for other things beside money. Taiwan persuaded him to wish for something else and Hong Kong decided to wish that China won't see through.\nAmerica\nMain article: America\nIn chapter 239 in Hetalia: World☆Stars, Taiwan said to America that she was doing some fortune and asked America if he would like his one. America answered that it was interesting and he liked his fortune, pleased if Taiwan didn't mind. Taiwan offered him to tell some of his information which America was wondering why she needed lots of information, and he figured she could be just done it in a snap with magic or something else. After that, Taiwan told in that case, she will be taught him a fortune telling techniques by using numbers, which America could do himself anytime once he had learned it. America said it was great and wanted Taiwan to teach him about it.

He carries a Lai Thai Carving Knife.\nADVERTISEMENT\nPersonality\n\n\nHe is described as often starting his sentences with \"um\" or \"hm\" and finishing them with polite and formal speech, with a verbal tic of \"ana~\". Himaruya describes Thailand as referring to himself as \"jibun\" (old-fashioned and slightly formal). Thailand treasures his family and friends, and always cooks delicious food that is either very sweet or very hot. He is very scatter-brained and dreamy and loves elephants. He has a pet elephant which he calls Toto.\nThailand has a strong work ethic and works out problems directly while employing clever usage of diplomacy to get his way. However, most of the time he is his usual carefree self.\nHe is also described as fighting on the side of the Axis Powers, and sent lots of rice and an elephant to the children of Japan after WWII, being one of the few Asian countries that kept their independence after the war.\nAccording to his new profile in chapter 375 of Hetalia: World Stars, Thailand is a big-hearted, smiley nation who is also kind and devout. He looks forgiving; however, it is rumored that if someone gets on his bad side, he will assume a Muay Thai stance.\nADVERTISEMENT\nRelationships\n\n\n\nIndia\nMain article: India\nThailand appears to get along well with India since they are elephant lovers.\nVietnam\nMain article: Vietnam\nIn the 2011 Christmas Event, Thailand teaches Vietnam how to smile, while she notes that Thailand is wearing a silly t-shirt.\nPhilippines\nMain article: Philippines\nDuring their meeting, Philippines spoke about Thailand being the land of smiles but said to be super buff, a good gambler and scary when angry, implying that Philippines knew along a side of Thailand that does not come out often unless he is at his limit.\nDenmark\nMain article: Denmark\nDuring the 2011 Bloodbath, he is seen chatting with Denmark about the Netherlands blocking Denmark’s attempt to visit Japan, stating that he is familiar with the Netherlands as well.\n\nTurkey: Türkiye (トルコ, Toruko) is a supporting character in the series Hetalia.

Like Greece, he has a double haircurl, but it rests down by his neck.\nWhen not dressed up, he can often be seen wearing a green parka and brown pants.\n\nADVERTISEMENT\nPersonality\n\n\nTürkiye is described as being a lively and excessively vigorous old man (though his exact age has never been revealed, he is one of the visibly physically older nations in the cast). He was known as the Ottoman Empire in his younger days, and was a very powerful nation with an overwhelming army force. He had the intention to conquer Europe, which was quite scared of him at the time. Now, he is thinking about being friends with them.\nHe is usually merry and friendly, yet it is said that he is ready to compete anytime with anyone (especially Greece) about even the smallest things due to his somewhat stubborn nature. He can also be nosy from time to time.\nTürkiye is too much of a showoff; it is mentioned that he is always seeking for new things and fashion, and always stays in style. He loves to entertain tourists and is quite a gourmet who enjoys eating various things every day. He favors the taste of sweet foods like ashure and it is revealed that he carries a bottle of a sort of apple juice to drink during breaks. He likes his coffee with a huge amount of sugar. He also likes rakı, a type of Turkish alcohol. He speaks in an Edodialect.\nIceland once stated that Türkiye doesn't like his mask taken off.\n\nADVERTISEMENT\nRelationships\n\n\n\nGreece\nMain article: Greece\nTürkiye took Greece under his control after having caused the fall of Constantinople and the Byzantine Empire. Greece remained under Ottoman control until the 19th century, when he became involved in a war to regain his independence and won. \nThe two of them are unable to get along in the same environment without a fight of some sort, even after declaring a cease-fire. Türkiye even built a shopping mall near Greece's border for his usage in spite of their rivalry. But it seems that, if need be, they can get along for just a little bit as shown when Greece tries to help Japan get angry. Greece calls Türkiye who is annoyed that Greece called him suddenly and it was just to borrow his camera, but when Greece says that Japan got angry, Türkiye's attitude changes suddenly and says, \"Hey, if I lend you my camera you'll give me copies of the pictures, right?! Right?!\".\nIceland\nMain article: Iceland\nIceland and Türkiye appear to have a very friendly relationship. In the 2010 Christmas/New Years event they hung out together at the Nordics house, Iceland referring to him as \"Pops\". Türkiye is seen as a father figure to him ever since the Turkish Abductions, shown in a comic sketch where Iceland is frustrated that the foreigners won't leave him alone while Türkiye pokes him with a stick.\nIn the 2011 Christmas event, Iceland says that Türkiye doesn't like his mask being take off. Iceland is also shown having a dream involving Türkiye partially naked and wearing a Santa hat.\n\nADVERTISEMENT\nItaly Veneziano\nMain article: Italy Veneziano\nTürkiye, as the Ottoman Empire, tried to conquer Italy, much like he tried to do with his older brother. However, unlike Romano, Italy actually defeated him once in a naval battle and became his rival. Many years later, when Germany and Italy visited him, Türkiye jokingly commented on how Veneziano used to be strong, much to Germany's surprise. He reveals the fact that Italy can use his actual strength when he wants to but doesn't hold any grudge about it, and even caught the pickpocket that had taken Italy's camera.\nJapan\nMain article: Japan\nTürkiye and Japan are shown to have a mutual respect for each other and good friendship. Türkiye is shown to be somewhat protective of Japan as he started fighting with Greece when he sees them together, presuming Greece wanted to take over Japan and Türkiye also threatened France on April Fool's with \"Don't you dare try anything on Japan. Or else I'll invade you.\"\n\nADVERTISEMENT\nTurkish Republic of Northern Cyprus\nMain article: Turkish Republic of Northern Cyprus\nTürkiye is the only nation to recognize TRNC as a legitimate country. In turn, TRNC describes Türkiye as gentle and greatly admires him, going as far as to defend him against Greece in arguments.\nNetherlands\nMain article: Netherlands\nTürkiye and Netherlands are speculated to be bitter rivals. As mentioned in Christmas Rampage 2007, he once fought with Netherlands over the title of \"The Tulip Country\". A battle that probably was won by Netherlands. Knowing Türkiye to be a very competitive person, he probably sees Netherlands as a rival.\n\nTurkish Republic of Northern Cyprus:\n\nTurkish Republic of Northern Cyprus (北キプロス・トルコ共和国, Kita Kipurosu Toruko Kyōwakoku, simplified - きたキプロス・トルコきょうわこ), often referred to as TRNC and Northern Cyprus, is a supporting character in the series Hetalia. A Mediterranean character, he appears to be a small child and his clothing imitates Turkey. His only color appearance to date is in the Hetalia Trading Card game, where he is depicted with olive skin and brown eyes. In Axis Powers Hetalia: The CD, it is mentioned that TRNC can't grow up due to not being recognized as a country by anyone except for Turkey.\nPersonality\n\n\nTRNC speaks in a monotone voice and is noticeably more stern and quiet than Cyprus. His style of dress imitates Turkey, the only one that will recognize him as a legitimate nation. Despite this, he is proud of being recognized by Turkey and is a rival of sorts to Sealand because of this (as Sealand is not recognized as a nation by anyone but himself).\nIn the drama CD, he proposes the idea of reunification to Cyprus, but both are interrupted by another one of Greece and Turkey's fights before there can be a definitive answer. Despite Cyprus's close relationship with Greece, TRNC tries to convince him that Turkey is nice, and doesn't forgive anyone who is mean to him. Relationships\n\n\n\nGreece\nMain article: Greece\nGreece openly hates TRNC, and doesn't like when Cyprus communicates with him. Likewise, TRNC dislikes Greece for getting into fights with Turkey, and will often try to aid Turkey against him.\nSealand\nMain article: Sealand\nSealand attempts to make friends with TRNC and points out that they are both micronations, but TRNC points out that while he is recognized by Turkey, Sealand is recognized by no one (not even by England or Sweden). By definition, TRNC isn't considered a micronation. Sealand begins to cry, and he later attacks TRNC in a fit of rage, causing a fight between Greece and Turkey to reignite nearby.\nTurkey\nMain article: Turkey\nTurkey is the only country to recognize TRNC as a country, and TRNC admires him as a result. TRNC calls Turkey \"gentle\" and won't forgive anyone who is mean to him. Whenever Greece and Turkey get into a fight, TRNC wants nothing more than to help Turkey.\nCyprus\nMain article: Cyprus\nThe immediate relationship of the two Cypriots is not thoroughly explored. While Greece is antagonistic toward TRNC in the audio drama, Cyprus does not partake in these interactions. In turn, TRNC openly dislikes Greece's ideals and beliefs, but does not direct hostility toward Cyprus. It is also implied that Cyprus and Northern Cyprus do not harbor hatred for each other.\n\nVietnam:\n\nVietnam (ベトナム, Betonamu) is a supporting character in the series Hetalia. She is the personification of Vietnam. Vietnam has long, dark brown hair worn it in a low ponytail, often with a red bow.

In a later illustration featuring her character profile, she is seen with the same uniform holding with her nón lá.\nPersonality\n\n\nVietnam is described as \"headstrong\" due to the number of strong women in Vietnamese history. She appears a bit shy when it comes to her looks, appearing apprehensive when Taiwan wishes to take a picture with her and is uncomfortable wearing a Santa outfit in a 2009 Christmas Request. In a blog post, Himaruya mentioned that Vietnam has a natural skillfulness and uses it to create a variety of different objects, and Austriamentions in one comic that he special ordered cinnamon from Vietnam.\nIn the volume four strip Ilha Formosa ~Beautiful Island~, Vietnam claims that she is not photogenic. In the Christmas 2011 event, Vietnam shows that she doesn't know how to smile and requests Thailand's help. It was shown that Vietnam is also a somewhat shy and discreet person when, at the Halloween 2013 Event, she was very flustered about the shortness of her costume's skirt.\nIn Volume 5 of Axis Powers, she is mentioned as a young woman who is shy and humble but has a very strong will. She has had a rough background, but she is tough despite her cute face. In Volume 6, Vietnam is described as a proper young lady who wears áo dài, and she is a country that is full of strong women.\nIn her new profile in Chapter 376 of World☆Stars, she is described as an energetic nation with a lot of pride who values tradition and honor. She is stated to prefer coffee to tea and likes to add a lot of condensed milk to it, likely referring to Vietnamese iced coffee. It is said she doesn't believe in stories like \"the middle person in a three-person photo will be unlucky,\" so she may not be superstitious, but she still doesn't want to be in the middle in a three-person photo. She is also stated to be dangerous when drunk.\nIn her Hetalia☆Collezione profile, she is stated to be an older sister type with a strong core who respect tradition. Himaruya describes her in a blurb as a character that he tried to make older sister-like, who leads everyone who is unreliable. He says she's dignified, but that he thinks she's becoming a \"retort character\" due to the influence of those around her. Wherever a meeting will be held, even in a casual setting such as a café, she wears a small hairpiece with proper clothes and that she has a way of making fun of other members that are \"too rough.\" She's shy and gets a little embarrassed when taking pictures, describing herself as not being photogenic, but Taiwan's photos are processed in a way that in a way where she doesn't have to worry about it.\nRelationships\n\n\n\nTaiwan\nMain article: Taiwan\nIn a strip in Volume 4 of the manga, Taiwan took Vietnam to a photo studio to take pictures of themselves, Taiwan calling Vietnam \"cute\". At the studio, their photographs were retouched to make their eyes bigger, as this was often done. Upon receiving the photographs, Vietnam found the retouched photos shocking, as Taiwan found them cute.\nThailand\nMain article: Thailand\nThough Thailand and Vietnam came to the Halloween 2011 party in the same group, their main interaction has been in the Christmas 2011 event, in which a fan requested that Vietnam smile. As Vietnam asked Thailand how to smile, she noticed that he wore a funny shirt, which then caused her to smile as she asked where he got it.\nMonaco\nMain article: Monaco\nIn Halloween 2013, Monaco stood in front of Vietnam and Taiwan and commented on their respective outfits. Vietnam asked her if she would don clothing akin to her's and Vietnam's, to which Monaco gave an answer that she was just an onlooker.

In a Christmas 2011 event strip, Cameroon decides to teach a mouse lemur to play soccer, further demonstrating his interest in the sport. Himaruya has stated that the country's football image is strong.[1] During the Halloween 2011 event, it is revealed that Cameroon is unused to the idea of Halloween, and quickly gives up in trying to participate.\n\nEgypt: Egypt (エジプト, Ejiputo) is a supporting character in the series Hetalia. He is the personification of Egypt. Egypt has light brown skin and wears a khaki uniform. His head is covered with a white keffiyeh.

Her cooking style is described as adding spices and salted dry fish in any cuisine and is said to eat pickled, dried fish that can be stored for long periods of time. She enjoys inviting guests and doesn't like going out much, with rumor that it's because she can't pick up the kind of pickled fish she likes. \nHer language is a unique type of French, mixing both French and English. During her cameo in Comic Diary 9, Seychelles, after overhearing other nations mention their stereotypes and reputations, rants that people do not know of her existence.

The koala was also smiling and in good spirits.\nRelationships\n\n\n\nNew Zealand\nMain article: New Zealand\nNew Zealand and Australia are very close friends and often spend time with each other. Sometimes, Australia will call New Zealand \"Kiwi\", and New Zealand calls him \"Aussie\" and \"Oz\". They have known each other since they were children, and England appointed New Zealand to keep an eye on Australia due to their close proximity and New Zealand's responsible personality. Australia's high-strung and impulsive attitude sometimes irritates New Zealand, who doesn't want Australia's strange behavior to reflect on himself. The two often childishly bicker over silly things, and they are highly competitive with one another, especially in sports, with neither wanting to lose to the other. \nAt America's 2011 Halloween party, they wore matching sheep costumes (along with Tonga), and asked England to judge which costume was the best because they had all gotten into a \"blood feud\" and could not decide. While they walked to the 2013 Halloween party together, they repeatedly talked over each other and got into a minor argument, but they quickly worked it out and continued walking together.\nWy\nMain article: Wy\nAustralia is an older brother figure to Wy, and is implied to have recognized her as a country (as the Mayor of the surrounding township has as well).

He is shown to have a pet sheep, which helped conceal his nudity during his cameo in the Christmas 2010 event.

They have known each other since they were children, and Englandappointed New Zealand to keep an eye on Australia due to their close proximity and New Zealand's responsible personality. Australia's high-strung and impulsive attitude sometimes irritates New Zealand, who doesn't want Australia's strange behavior to reflect on himself. The two often childishly bicker over silly things, and they are highly competitive with one another, especially in sports, with neither wanting to lose to the other. \nAt America's 2011 Halloween party, they wore matching sheep costumes (along with Tonga), and asked England to judge which costume was the best because they had all gotten into a \"blood feud\" and could not decide. While they walked to the 2013 Halloween party together, they repeatedly talked over each other and got into a minor argument, but they quickly worked it out and continued walking together.\n\nCuba: Cuba (キューバ, Kyūba) is a supporting character in the series Hetalia.

He is the personification of the Aerican Empire, a micronation located in Canada. He can often be seen accompanied by a floating orb with a smiley face on it, which could be a nod to the flag of the Aerican Empire (his flag somewhat resembles the Canadian flag, but instead of a red maple leaf in the center, the Aerican Empire flag depicts a yellow smiley face); it might also be a reference to the fictional planet of Verden, which is part of the Aerican Empire. The orb was shown to have a mind of its own.[2] Personality (tho the orb can’t talk…..it just tags along with Aerican)\n\n\nAerica appears to have two outward personalities (one confident and one not) that he displays depending on whether or not he is wearing his dramatic costume.[2] When costumed, he is loud and takes more risks, and seems to enjoy making a dramatic and impactful entrance. However, when wearing regular clothes, he appears much more shy and lacking self-confidence. This is especially true when he's around Canada; throughout his appearances in the comics, Aerica is shown to constantly question his self-worth and expect others to reject him by default.\nDespite this, he easily comes out of his shell when his interests are mentioned, as seen in the World☆Stars Volume 7 Extras.[3] Initially bashful upon meeting Canada and resorting to self-loathing as he always does around Canada, he perks up when he notices Canada holding a Starry Wars DVD and goes on a rant about the franchise. Ironically enough, it turned out that Canada was merely a casual fan. Later on, in World☆Stars Chapter 489,[4] Aerica confesses that he has a tendency to ramble nonstop once he gets started.\nTrue to the nature of his creation,[Note 2] Aerica loves science fiction and fantasy, and more specifically Star Wars (renamed Starry Wars in the comics as mentioned above). In World☆Stars Chapter 488,[5] after being invited to hang out at Canada's place, the latter suggest they watch some Starry Wars but is unsure what to start with. Aerica excitedly chimes in, suggesting they binge-watch the entirety of the series, and reassuring Canada that he will explain all the necessary jargon.\nHe also values the power of imagination, and believes that thanks to that, everyone has a claim to an unconquerable land inside themselves.[6]Despite his initial entrance being similar to that of a supervillain, he has only interacted with others in a very friendly way so far. Relationships\n\n\n\nCanada\nMain article: Canada\nAerica appears to hold great respect and admiration for Canada as he refers to him as Mr. or Master Canada, and offers him free souvenirs from his online shop.[5] However, his high esteem for Canada causes Aerica to talk himself down when they meet, expecting to be rejected by default (even being shocked or even embarrassed when Canada tells him he's been reading his website).[7]Canada, on the other hand, has constantly shown appreciation and interest towards the micronation, listening to his rants and engaging with his passion for Starry Wars.\nMolossia\nMain article: Molossia\nMolossia and the Aerican Empire appear to be good friends; they are often referred to as \"microcon buddies\".[6][2] Aerica is noted to be one of the few that have seen Molossia's softer side.\nHutt River\nMain article: Hutt River\nWhen Hutt River tells the other micronations that he's going to quit being a nation in World☆Stars Chapter 436[6], Aerica makes a dramatic entrance and tells him about the power of imagination, giving Hutt River a big confidence boost and possibly even saving him for disappearing.[Note 3]\n\n\nHutt river: Hutt River (ハット・リバー, Hatto Ribā)is a supporting character in the series Hetalia.

His house is pretty complex for a micronation and he's famous in Australia.\nOther than that, he also shares some common traits with Australia.\nRelationships\n\n\n\nAustralia\nMain article: Australia\nHutt River has a bandage similar to Australia's. In one short panel, he states that Australia doesn't pick him up when he was a child.\nWy\nMain article: Wy\nWy regards Hutt River as his senior micronation, though early character notes explain that Wy doesn't understand him.

However, Hutt River shows up first and chides her for not paying respect to his senior.

He also once competed with Ladonia in making a clay deer that he deemed a more artistic version of what Ladonia had just made. It also is stated that \"If it doesn’t register on his art sensor, his body rejects it.\"\nHis demeanor is shown to make other characters uncomfortable, such as when Sealand, Seborga, and Wy decide to avoid him after witnessing one of his outbursts. Germany describes him as \"difficult to deal with\" while Switzerland says he has a \"dangerous aura\" radiating from him. In a blog post it is stated that Kugelmugel and Iceland may be alike due to their similar appearances, but that if they were to spend time together Iceland would be thoroughly ordered around. Relationships\n\n\n\nAustria\nMain article: Austria\nAustria is shown to be the caretaker/father figure for Kugelmugel, as the country the micronation was created in. He appears to hold responsibility for Kugelmugel and is aware of his eccentric attitude. As such, he is worried about him and warns the other micronations who want to approach Kugelmugel about this, saying that they need to take good care of him.\nLadonia\nMain article: Ladonia\nKugelmugel and Ladonia appear to bond and become friends during the meeting of the artistic micronations. After Ladonia makes a clay deer, Kugelmugel wakes up and makes his own clay deer that is sleeker and tougher looking. While Ladonia is initially shocked by this, he is ultimately impressed by it and enthusiastically declares that it's cool, and they continue to discuss it while Wy leaves.\n\nMain article: Liechtenstein\nLiechtenstein and Switzerland are both taking a stroll together when they hear someone muttering \"It's art..\". Curious, Liechtenstein walks to the front to see Kugelmugel admiring a sphere. She politely greets Kugelmugel and says that he's absolutely adorable. The micronation wants Liechtenstein to make the sphere bigger, quoting that small things aren't art, living small things are.\n\nLadonia:\n\nLadonia (ラドニア, Radonia) is a supporting character in the series Hetalia. He is the personification of Ladonia, a micronation in Sweden. Ladonia appears to be a young boy with ruffled red hair and blue-gray eyes. He has a greenish streak of paint across his face (Appearing more of a tan/red color in the anime), extending from his right cheek to his nose. Ladonia wears dark pants and a white trench coat decorated with grey buttons, frilly lapels and large cuffs, which are gray as well. He has a gold apple pin attached to his lapel, which represents a Ladonian legend about golden apples that grant immortality. His looks make him to be similar as an elementary school's student.\n\nPersonality\n\n\nLadonia is a Internet-Based Micronation in Sweden, who considers himself very powerful, even enough so that he could conquer Sweden. He is a bit cheeky and overall at a primary age.\nHe is a very hot-headed person and is often shown as aggressive towards the other micronations, refusing the friendship of Sealandand claiming he hates him as soon as said friendship is offered. Despite this \"hatred\" and denial of friendship, he is later shown to have joined the Micronations.\nLadonia claims to be popular worldwide, even so among Pakistanis. This is because he lives \"in the net\" and due to this reason, he won't appear in the real world if his connection is shut off, as what Molossia does by turning off Ladonia's laptop upon meeting him.\nRelationships\n\n\n\nDenmark\nMain article: Denmark\n\n\nLadonia and Denmark from the Christmas 2011 Event \nIn the Christmas 2011 Event, Denmark tries to convince Ladonia alongside Sweden that Santa exists. Ladonia calls him uncle and says that he's childish.\nADVERTISEMENT\nFinland\nMain article: Finland\nIn the Christmas 2011 Event, Ladonia complains to Sweden and Denmark that Santa doesn't exist. Ever since, he chooses to refuse believing on Christmas but is changed when he sees Santa driving his sleigh that passes over his window.

Being hot-headed, Ladonia treats Sealand as if they're getting into a fight on which Sealand once claims that his punch is as hard as steel.

In contrast, Sealand thinks Ladonia is 'cool' when he is transported into the laptop.\nSweden\nMain article: Sweden\nLadonia's territory is located in Sweden, and as such he has a close relationship with Sweden himself. It can be inferred that because other micronations, such as Sealand, have been directly stated to be related to their host nation, that Ladonia and Sweden are also family, but their exact family relation has not been stated. However, Sweden acts like a father to him, and Ladonia has been shown to live with him. Ladonia, however, does not always acknowledge this relation and acts slightly bratty to Sweden, even addressing him as \"Sve\". He also has play-fought with Sweden on multiple occasions, with Sweden purposely letting him win, though Ladonia was unaware of this and brags that he has fought and won against Sweden. In the Christmas 2011event he appears to have done this to distract Ladonia from fears that he was on Santa's naughty list or that Santa wasn't coming.\n\nMolossia:\n\nMolossia (モロッシア, Morosshia) is a supporting character in the series Hetalia.

Molossia acts calm, polite, and formal with him, and it is stated that he \"can't lift his head against America\". America does not seem to even be aware of his tough guy façade, expressing surprise when Molossia accidentally snapped at him (thinking America was Sealand).
