As the oldest country in the series, China has seen a lot over the years. He’s known for having a long history, the roots of Asian culture, and the largest population on earth. His hair is dark brown, but was colored as black in earlier artwork. Also in earlier artwork, his hair was short and he sported glasses.  China raised Japan and treated him affectionately in the past. Japan eventually turned against him, and attacked him with a katana in the dead of night (which then started a war), leaving a large scar on his back.  Hong Kong was also raised by China, but was later taken away from him by England. The two were reunited eventually, and in Hetalia Fantasia, Hong Kong was China’s assistant and referred to him as “sensei.”  Korea refers to China as “Aniki” (Big Brother), and is somewhat obsessed with him. China is easily annoyed by his antics, and is prone to snapping when around him. China once mentioned to Japan that he has no “villas” (Chinatowns) in Korea because “building villas in Korea are simply impossible.”  A fan of Hello Kitty, pandas, and other cute things, China has a “friend” named “Shinatty-chan,” who is an old man dressed in a knockoff Hello Kitty costume. In Shinatty-chan’s first appearace, he was robbing China’s house.   He has a rather serious personality and is very superstitious, but can be immature at times. Food is known as being his first priority in life, and he even complains if food has a certain pattern of tastes and flavors. China is very artistic and can even paint a picture on a strand of hair, but is absolutely terrible at drawing anime and manga. Although he tries acting like a big brother to the other Asian nations, they never treat him as such. He ends almost every sentence with  _“aru,”_ which is a Japanese stereotype for a Chinese accent. When around England, he is noted to end his sentences in  _“ahen,”_ meaning “opium” (in reference to the Opium Wars).  According to Hidekaz Himaruya, his first name can be rendered as either Yao or Yue in both English and Japanese (Yao is the more common moniker of the two in fandom). “Yao” in Chinese means “brightly shining.” His last name, “Wang,” means “king” in Chinese. 

Based on a popular web-released manga series by Hidekazu Himaruya, this has been described as a "cynical gag" story set in Europe in the years between WW1 and WW2 (1918-1939), using exaggerated caricatures of the different nationalities as portrayed by a gaggle of bish&#333;nen. For example, the Italia Veneziano character is into pasta and women. The Deutsche (German) bishi loves potatoes and sausages, and Nippon is an otaku boy. Installments of the manga have jumped back and forth in setting from the ancient times to modern-day geopolitics. The manga's title comes the Japanese words for "useless" (hetare) and Italy (Italia).

The fifth season of Hetalia. 
 
They said it couldn’t happen, but they were as wrong as a stack of pancakes in a cage full of bears! The adorable boys of Hetalia are back with some new friends and a super sparkly new look. 
 
What’s more fun than Germany squatting in a dandelion patch? How about the Axis Boys joining the witchcraft club? Or maybe Russia suffering through a traumatic hamster flashback? Any way you slice the spaghetti, every cute boy enjoys a little quality bath time, and Turkey and Greece can’t wait to start splishing and splashing! Fall in love with this new and improved, sparklelicious season of Hetalia as Belgium throws a mouthwatering waffle party, and America shows off his sweet dance moves! We swear you won’t be disappointed – even when Santa Claus goes missing and Canada (who’s that?) tries to replace him with a polar bear! A POLAR BEAR!? Hetalia, you so cray cray. We’ve missed the squee outta ya!

There are strange people in this world. If it is short, it will disappear for several days, and if it is long, it will disappear for hundreds of years. The name and personality changed, and suddenly appeared by someone's unexpected idea. Even though he is the most weird, he is loosely accepted and used by his boss. This is the story of such strange people.

Think of it like WWII, except every country is a pretty boy instead. A hilariously stereotypical pretty boy. America loves burgers, Russia is into the vodka, and China has pandas and a wok. It is centered mostly around Italy, who has both a North and South character. The Hetaria portion of the name is probably mocking Italy, as Hetare means "Useless."


The sixth season of Hetalia. 
 
Prepare your body for another infusion of international sparkle shenanigans with Hetalia: The World Twinkle! Surprise! It’s been too long since we’ve peeked into the world of our favorite nations. (Seriously, calm down, Italy!) Admit it, you could use another inva…vacation. Yeah, vacation!

An offshoot of the original Hetalia Axis Powers. Hetalia follows the strange personifications of Italy and other nations as they navigate their world.


The movie involves a mysterious force causing unusual incidents to happen all over the world, and the nations having to try to ward off the threat of human extinction from the alien race known as Pict, who seek to transform mankind and drain the color from the world (with America deciding that the world will be saved under his command).
