Latvia is the youngest of the Baltic brothers. He has curly pale blonde hair and violet eyes. In the anime adaptation, his hair was changed to a dark shade of blonde, and his eyes were changed to light blue.    Latvia has lived a very hard life; first he lived in Germany’s house, then in Poland and Lithuania’s, and finally at Russia’s house. Even though he split from Russia eventually, he has not been able to completely cut ties with him yet and is still very reliant on him. Russia usually picks on Latvia, and presses down on his head with his hand. Latvia says that he would be 10 centimeters taller if Russia didn’t do that.   Sealand and Latvia seem to be good friends and get along well, not only because they are close in physical age, but also because they are both small nations that people usually don’t take seriously.   He has a big heart and his personality is tolerant, but he is quiet, shy, very withdrawn, and is somewhat of a crybaby. His hobbies include reading romance novels and poetry, and drinking. Despite his physical appearance, he states that he can drink about 40 cups of alcohol at a time. He unintentionally speaks in a blunt manner, which usually gets him in trouble (especially with Russia). Latvia also has the habit of getting sucked into things against his will. 

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).

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."


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.

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).
