** Also, don't be talking smack about his pajamas; Liechtenstein spent 52 days making them, dammit!

-->'''Switzerland''': I think...it tastes [[ShapedLikeItself like sandwich]].
* [[DotingParent Doting Adoptive Brother]]: He may not seem it at first, due to his aloof nature, but he's shown taking care of Liechtenstein to the point of giving her his food when he didn't have enough to eat for himself. He also buys her a ribbon when a [[LadyLooksLikeADude passerby mistook her for a boy]] [[ACupAngst which obviously upset her]], and we know how stingy this guy is.

* MoralityPet: Who knows how much ''more'' of a jerk he would be without Liechtenstein around.

* NotBloodSiblings: With Liechtenstein, along with a full bucket of RelationshipWritingFumble and ShipTease.
* NotLoveInterest: Well, he is the most important person to Liechtenstein, as she practically adores him and worships the ground he steps on ([[RelationshipWritingFumble even though their relationship gets pretty ambiguous sometimes]]).
* RealMenWearPink: Girly pink pyjamas, that is. They're a present from Liechtenstein; she gave him the wrong ones by mistake, but he doesn't mind... because they're from ''his sister'', dammit.

* TrademarkFavoriteFood: Cheese. Not too susprisingly that Switz people eat most cheese in the world.
* TriggerHappy: Very much so.
* {{Tsundere}}: Switzerland is a combination of Tsun Type A and [[SheIsNotMyGirlfriend He Was Never My Heterosexual Life Partner]] to Austria. TheGunslinger is especially fond of The Violent Approach (duh), going deredere ([[{{Kuudere}} and VERY much so]]) only for Liechtenstein.
* {{Tsurime}}
* UnluckyChildhoodFriend: Towards [[HoYay Austria]], arguably. Fanworks are fond of making his feelings to him [[AllLoveIsUnrequited completely onesided]] ''[[StarBoarding and]]'' [[StarBoarding without possible reciprocation]].
* WhatCouldHaveBeen: Himaruya had one idea for Switzerland to actually be [[{{Bifauxnen}} a woman who dressed masculine when in uniform]], but who would wind up shocking others like Germany
** A recent blog entry (October 2011) states that he would have originally been [[YodelLand a girl with pigtails]] until Hima apparently saw a Swiss guy ''[[GunsInChurch out shopping with a gun]]''

No mention of her "biological" parents or anybody who took care of her and her people until then. This happened right after WorldWarI, since [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/History_of_Liechtenstein#Liechtenstein_during_the_World_Wars the union with Switzerland]] dates from 1919.

* AllThereInTheManual: Saxony and Bavaria (two other descendants of Germania) appear as background characters in the Austrian War of Secession. Saxony also appears in Comic Diary 7, Liechtenstein's Journal of Swiss Dopiness and Chibitalia (as one of HRE's bodyguards, but only in the manga). They are confirmed as elder brothers of Germany in the Prussia-centric ''Kuso-game'', along with the additional three states of Hesse, Schleswig-Holstein, and Brandenburg.
* AmicableExes: Austria and Hungary are shown as not only close friends but having feelings for each other to the point that they still act as HappilyMarried long after their divorce.
* AscendedExtra: Austria, Hungary and Prussia have clearly gotten this treatment, being major ensemble characters in themselves. Tied in with HeroOfAnotherStory.
* BigFancyHouse: Subverted and played straight:
** Subverted in the case of Chibitalia, Hungary, Austria and HRE. Austria's mansion ''is'' pretty big but the end of the Chibitalia strips suggests (if not outright states) that their spending wealth is very limited, which is remarked when [[spoiler: HRE leaves the mansion with other Germanic states.]]
** Played straight with the fancy palace where Austria and Hungary interact with MariaTheresa. It's a JustifiedTrope considering that Vienna is very famous for palaces like [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Belvedere_%28palace%29 Belvedere]] or [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sch%C3%B6nbrunn_Palace Schonbrunn]].
* BigScrewedUpFamily: The Germanic brothers aren't exactly the happiest bunch.
* CrossDresser: The Italies (when they were little). Although the Italies' dresses may be another [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Breeching_(boys) historical in-joke]].
** Hungary dressing up as a man at times, even when she grew up, could be seen as a holdover from her younger days when she thought herself as male.
* HairDecorations: Hungary has flower-shaped hairpins.
* HappilyMarried: Austria and Hungary, even though [[AmicableExes they're technically and formally divorced]].
* IneffectualSympatheticVillain / AntiVillain: Historically, they haven't always been associated with the "good guys," such as in WorldWarII. Then again, [[GreyAndGreyMorality given history...]]
* MasculineGirlFeminineBoy: Austria (though he's more a PrincelyYoungMan than girly) and Hungary (though she's more feminine than many blue girls).
* {{Meido}}: As a young child living with Austria, [[WholesomeCrossdresser Italy used to wear maid outfits]]. Especially in the Chibitalia chapter, which lampshades the trope when the Holy Roman Empire is seen with a portrait of Chibitalia and is asked if the model was a servant.
* OfficialCouple: Austria and Hungary.
* SavvyGuyEnergeticGirl: Austria and Hungary are the grown-up version of the trope. HRE and Chibitalia also fit... except that Chibitalia is a [[WholesomeCrossdresser a boy who dresses as a girl]]
* TheClan Of The Habsburgs
* TheSoundOfMartialMusic: Austria, though due to historical reasons Hungary plays a large role here as well.
* UnsettlingGenderReveal: Young Prussia used to think that young Hungary was a boy, until he got to grope her chest. And some other characters thought that Chibitalia (child North Italy) was a little girl (the Holy Roman Empire included), until he hit puberty.
** It's implied, however, that Austria was the ''only'' one in Italy's surrounding that, by the time he got his growth spurt, still ignored that he was a boy. Hungary is not surprised at all to see Italy as a young teenager, while Austria is.

* ChildhoodFriendRomance: One-sided on his part with Italy. According to France (in a deleted strip), HRE apparently perished in the war, but some definite hints say [[spoiler: HRE actually lost his memory in the war and was found by Prussia later, then raised by him to become Germany]].
* DoggedNiceGuy: Type 1 to Chibitalia.

Hungary has to pick him up in a [[PietaPlagiarism certain faux symbolic pose.]]]]

* ActionGirl
* ActionGirlfriend: To Austria, though this overlaps with ViolentlyProtectiveGirlfriend once Prussia or France are involved. It's also hinted through canon (and expanded in fanworks) that she's the dominant one in the relationship.
* {{Badass}}: She's pretty much up there with Germany and Prussia in terms of kicking ass.
* BadassAdorable / CuteBruiser / GirlyBruiser: She started fighting when she was a little girl, and was able to take on both Prussia ''and'' Austria successfully. She also averts {{Chickification}} by both not being invincible in her "male" days ''and'' by being shown as physically strong (if not [[TookALevelInBadass even stronger]]) during her "maid" ones.
* BathingBeauty: She's seen taking a bath with Chibitalia in early strips, and a recent one has her [[http://i.imgur.com/fpAp2.jpg inviting Taiwan to have a soak in]] [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lake_H%C3%A9v%C3%ADz Lake Heviz]].
** Confirmed in her Volume 5 profile.
* BewareTheNiceOnes: This cute and sweet maid brutalizes Prussia's army, watches him get ready to sleep [[BladeOnAStick with a spear in hand]], and busts down a wall in his home to help out her beloved Austria.
* {{Bifauxnen}}: For a request during the April Fool's 2011 event, Himaruya drew her dressed in a [[KnightInShiningArmor prince-like outfit]] with Liechtenstein. She also had shades of this when she was younger before she discovered she was a woman.
** Her Halloween costume in the 2011 event was also a prince.
** Not to mention her fancy outfit in the [[HighSchoolAU Gakuen]] games also qualifies as this.
** And her uniform which is much more masculine than Belarus and Ukraine's.
* BiTheWay: She may have some shades of this... Hungary suggested that [[GagBoobs Ukraine]] should wear the traditional ancient Crete dress (which completely exposes the breasts) in this [[http://hetalia.livejournal.com/11219211.html comic strip]]
** And a blog post pretty much outright says she'll [[CutenessProximity go crazy for cute girls]] as much as she will with boys.
* BladeOnAStick: Hungary's WeaponOfChoice (aside of her [[FryingPanOfDoom frying pan]]). She also has [[{{BFG}} a rifle]], but we never see her use it.
* BloodKnight: She shows signs of then when she's ''very'' peeved. Namely when she's out kicking Prussia's ass.
* BodyguardCrush: Towards [[NonActionGuy Austria]].
* BoisterousBruiser: Can be easily seen as one of the rare female examples.
--> '''Hungary''': Seize vital regions, seize vital regions... CRUSH PRUSSIA! CRUSH PRUSSIA!
** Cranked UpToEleven in the anime, which adds a BattleAura to her SlasherSmile and a ''truly'' scary delivery of the MadnessMantra above by MichikoNeya. Austria wisely decides to just let her be... and the scene soon changes to her [[CurbStompBattle punching and kicking the living crap]] [[OneManArmy out of a whole Prussian army]].
* {{Bokukko}}: When she was a child, Hungary spoke rather boyishly, [[YouFailBiologyForever assuming that she was a boy and would grow up into a man]] (heck, when her breasts started developing, she actually thought that she was sick...). Ever since she grew out of this, though, she has perfectly feminine speech patterns, only reverting to boyish speech when she's ''very'' pissed off.
** WholesomeCrossdresser: Himaruya originally intended to have Hungary as a crossdressing male. He used this idea for Poland instead.
* BoobsOfSteel: Is very well-endowed (though not to Ukraine's GagBoobs levels), as shown in the scene from the "Noto-sama 5" game where [[http://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/44176775.jpg Yamato and Noto peep on her when she's changing clothes]]. Also, in every fanwork that feature "Bust Chart" she'll often be the second after Ukraine("Often", because she may trades place to either [[SelfFanservice Belarus or Taiwan]]).
* BrokenBird: Often portrayed like this in DarkFic.
* CameraFiend: The fans ''love'' to peg her as one, based on her YaoiFangirl status.
** Then again, she ''did'' take photos of the mess around Austria when he was groped by France.
* {{Chickification}}: Averted. She's actually ''manlier'' than a good chunk of the male cast. Doesn't stop "feminist fans" from falsely accusing her of this because she often fights to protect Austria, which apparently means she's "weak" and "submissive" to him.
** [[GirlyBruiser She also gained girlier outlooks and sides, and she's not exactly ashamed of them.]] This is a girl who can pull a very nice {{Bifauxnen}} stint, and yet wears her hair down and with HairDecorations as well.
* ChildhoodFriendRomance: With Austria.
* CoolBigSis: She seems to fit this for Liechtenstein, which fans like to really drive home.
* CovertPervert: She insists that her love for Austria is "pure," but all the footage she has of him in [[ShirtlessScene compromising]] [[BlackComedyRape positions]] [[YaoiFangirl says otherwise.]] Even ''France'' is amazed by how dirty her mind is.
* DaddysGirl: To [[DisappearedDad Magyar]]. Tomboy variant.
* DefeatByModesty. Subverted in [[http://pics.livejournal.com/melcratch/pic/00004xzk/ this strip]], where Hungary [[InnocentFanserviceGirl doesn't seem to care that her tunic has been ripped]] to AbsoluteCleavage levels after fighting Turkey. [[PleasePutSomeClothesOn Prussia's the one who cares more.]]
* FlowerInHerHair: She uses flowers and/or flower-shaped hair jewelry. Her pink flower hairpin (apparently a [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Geranium geranium]]) symbolizes [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lake_Balaton Lake Balaton aka The Hungarian Sea]], BTW.
* FryingPanOfDoom: Contrary to what {{fanon}} says, she doesn't attack Prussia this... ''France'' is more likely to be her fry-panning target. The frying pan probably comes from 'László the Brave,' a Hungarian slapstick comedy in the vein of 'Punch and Judy,' where the titular hero uses a huge frying pan to beat up his enemies.
* GirlinessUpgrade: From a CuteBruiser {{Bokukko}}, to a TeamMom NinjaMaid. [[WhatMeasureIsANonBadass Some fans don't like it AT ALL, though.]]
* GreenEyes: Justified, as it turns out. Hungary has one of the highest percentages of green eyes in Europe.
* HeroicBSOD: HetaliaHetaween2013 shows that she feels more meek when she's overwhelmed.
* HiddenBuxom: There was a minor panic over the Volume 5 cover, which seemed to give her a much smaller chest in her uniform but when [[http://img341.imageshack.us/img341/2346/swimsuitr.jpg she was drawn in a swimsuit]], however, the fear was rapidly lost. [[TruthInTelevision Justified in that military uniforms are rather bulky and not necessarily all that flattering.]]
** Averted with her [[ChainmailBikini old armor]], which serves to ''really'' highlight her assets.
* ImprobableWeaponUser: Is seen beating up France with her FryingPanOfDoom. [[FaNon Never Prussia, despite what fanon says.]]
* InnocentFanserviceGirl: She didn't seem to mind the fact that her clothes got torn up in one strip, revealing her breasts to Prussia.
* InSeriesNickname: She's called Hun-chan ("Hunny" or "Hun-baby") by Ukraine.
* LadyAndKnight: A rare genderflipped example in that Hungary has many traits of a ''knight'' rather than a lady (despite being rather feminine herself).
* MsFanservice: In the rare occasion that a female character is on the receiving end of fanservice, it tends to be her. ([[YaoiFangirl It's only fair!]])
* NamedAfterSomebodyFamous: Some fans suspected that she was named after the infamous [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Elizabeth_B%C3%A1thory Elizabeth Báthory]]. The outfit that she wore for HetaliaHetaween2013 more or less confirm this.
* NightmareFetishist: According to her Volume 5 profile.
--> ''She loves the hot springs and she likes to sing scary songs!''
* NinjaMaid: Hungary often dresses up as a {{meido}} (especially in the MariaTheresa mini arc). She's also very willing to use her spear to defend herself and/or Austria. Her outfit is a mix of [[http://hungaria.org/ahm/index.php?projectid=4&menuid=194#239 traditional Hungarian dress]] or folk attire and a maid outfit. In ''Chibitalia'' we see Italy working as a maid at the "Holy Roman Empire Household" and dressing up as a maid, and when Hungary is introduced as his CoolBigSis it's said they're technically in the same situation. And in "France and the frying pan", she's clearly wearing a normal maid outfit.
* OneOfTheBoys: Often portrayed as this in fandom, as well as in canon itself.
* OtakuSurrogate: Fangirls adore the fact that the girl who appears the most loves male-on-male porn as much as they do.
* PantyShot: [[http://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/kaeriuti.gif Courtesy of France, of course]].
* ParentalSubstitute: Towards Chibitalia.
* PassionateSportsGirl: Play this role in Gakuen Hetalia. She's a member of the swimming team and in the most recent Gakuen strip/TV episode she and Australia are seen lounging around in swimsuits. The PSP game also has her in a sports competition.
* PlatonicLifePartners: Kinda hinted to be this with Poland, which is supported by the historical connections between both nations. She refers to him as "Po-chan" ("Popo"), to start.
* PluckyGirl: And how.
* RaisedAsTheOppositeGender: As a child, Hungary had apparently been raised as a boy and even thought herself as one until she recognized herself as a girl. But while she's since become more feminine, there's still a good deal of her masculine upbringing left over especially when she's pissed off.
* RapunzelHair: It often depends on the strip, but her hair sometimes is drawn to be past her waist and incredibly thick and wavy.
* RelationshipVoiceActor: In the dub [[SoulEater Medusa and Stein]] are in a loving relationship...enjoy the MindScrew!
* SexySantaDress: She's shown wearing one rather seductively in the 2009 Christmas strips.
* SheCleansUpNicely: Wears a PimpedOutDress and jewelry [[http://www.geocities.co.jp/himaruya/xmas20113.html in the Christmas strips for 2010]]. Himaruya later drew her in an even more pimped out dress, alongside Prussia in a nice suit.
** While not ''quite'' as pimped out, Himaruya also drew her wearing a simple, but very elegant dress alongside Austria.
** Her prince outfit in ''Hetaween2011'' is also ''very'' impeccable.
* ShesGotLegs: As illustrations of her [[ChainmailBikini old armor]] highlight.
* {{Shotacon}}: Either this or ''extreme'' CutenessProximity.
* SingleWomanSeeksGoodMan: She and Austria. In her own words from the ''Gakuen Hetalia'' script: "My heart is Austrian territory!"
** Also slightly subverted, due to her status as a YaoiFangirl. She does love and care for Austria, but rarely minds seeing her husband/boyfriend being felt up by other males...
* SitcomArchnemesis: She gets riled up whenever Romania's around. As shown in the 2011 Bloodbath, wherein there's already a bad tension in the air when Romania appears before they engage in massive PassiveAggressiveKombat. The 2013 Hetaween meanwhile suggests that she also feels this way to a smaller degree whenever France, Spain and Prussia are around.
* SpellMyNameWithAnS: Elisabeth, Elisaveta, Erzsébet, Elizabeth...?
* StayInTheKitchen: Inverted and subverted. Aside from becoming tough out of necessity, upon realizing that she's female, Hungary seems fine slipping into a more "womanly" mold and becoming Austria's maid. On the other hand, it's shown over time that just because she's a woman [[TookALevelInBadass doesn't mean she's any less badass than the male Nations]]. It's no surprise that as an adult, she's both clearly feminine and one of the ''manlier'' characters in ''Hetalia.''
* SweetPollyOliver: Back when she thought herself a boy. Although even grown up, her uniforms tend to be very masculine.
* {{Tsundere}}: She has hints of this, especially with Austria and Prussia. Her dynamic with Austria over the centuries is also described as one of both defiance and deep longing.
* UnsettlingGenderReveal: Prussia, possibly several other nations, and ''Hungary herself'' were all rather surprised to find out that Hungary was a girl.
* ViolentlyProtectiveGirlfriend: For Austria. So much that she once was pictured in the main page.
* VitriolicBestBuds: She's sort of like this with Prussia.
* WhatCouldHaveBeen: Along with the idea for Hungary as a man, Himaruya had another idea for her personality, with her being a snide and witchy type of woman who would shoot people full of arrows if they mistook her for a guy. The basis of her current design and this rejected personality were in turn recycled from a Hungarian witch character in a series that never materialized.
* YaoiFangirl: Hungary loves nothing more than watching men having sex. Even if it's her ''husband''. Who are we kidding, she loves it ''especially'' if it's her husband. ("Platonic and pure love", OUR FEET!) JustifiedTrope to a degree, considering Hungary's fame on pornography.
* ZettaiRyouiki: Grade C in [[HighSchoolAU Gakuen Hetalia]]. One of her outfits when she was younger came ''close'' to a Grade A with ThighHighBoots, but they came up over her pants/leggings.

* [[AloofBigBrother Aloof Big]] [[BigBrotherMentor Brother Mentor]]: Though he served as Italy's mentor and brother figure when Italy was a child, he was also very strict and cold.
** Germany refers to him as a brother figure in the recent manga, and while still a little cold he isn't ''as'' strict.
* AwesomeAnachronisticApparel: Compared to most of the Nations, he's more often seen in older suits, is even seen in some canon works gardening while in 18th Century attire and almost ''always'' wears a [[https://www.google.com/search?hl=en&q=jabot&bav=on.2,or.r_gc.r_pw.r_qf.&bvm=bv.1355534169,d.aWM&bpcl=40096503&biw=1600&bih=730&um=1&ie=UTF-8&tbm=isch&source=og&sa=N&tab=wi&ei=CX3bUO_6G8X2qwGLuoHABQ jabot.]]
* BeautyMark
* {{Bishonen}}: While it could be argued that this applies to a lot of characters, ArtEvolution seems to be hitting Austria hard in the latest manga volumes.
* BlueBlood: His personality has elements of this.
* ChildhoodFriendRomance: With Hungary. [[LoveAtFirstPunch Even when she used to pick on him.]]
* CrouchingMoronHiddenBadass: Despite being a {{Non Action Guy}} nowadays, he used to be quite the fighter, and his armies are magnificent! [[TheSoundOfMartialMusic Which is]] TruthInTelevision.
** Also, in oen of the strips when he's under attack and both he and Russia are stuck - he refuses to leave the battlefield and attempts to get free from the borderline quicksand he's stuck into. For a NonActionGuy, that's quite impressive.
* DichterAndDenker: The Dichter part, his musical skill being a nod to Austria's famous composers.
* ElegantClassicalMusician: Really handsome, really skilled in piano playing. The official calendar and several fanarts also make him a skilled violinist.
* ErmineCapeEffect: Subverted. While most of his outfits aren't flashy, there's still an element of elegance and class in them, his cravat being a constant.
* EvenTheGuysWantHim: While pretty much ''every'' male has this going on, let's not forget that his beautiful ''wife'' loves seeing them hit on him in canon.
* FantasticArousal: [[BeautyMark Well...]]
* FashionDissonance: He tends to dress in more old-fashioned manners, sometimes mixing elements from earlier time periods.
* GloryDays: Similarly to Prussia, he clearly misses his days as a great Empire.
* HeyItsThatVoice: Akira Sasanuma aka [[GundamSEED Dearka]] [[GundamSEEDDestiny Elsman]] and [[CrushGearTurbo the heir of the Manganji clan.]]
** He's also [[VideoGame/TheLegendOfZeldaTwilightPrincess Link]]!
* IdiotHair: Represents [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mariazell Mariazell]].
* IllBoy: He was in a wheelchair for a time, according to [[AllThereInTheManual some of Himaruya's notes]] Also, in a recent manga strip he's seen with injuries in his hands and rather weakened.
* ImpoverishedPatrician: Just because the glory days of the Habsburgs are over doesn't mean Austria has to act like it. Prussia tries to blow his cover on his penny-pinching ways to Austria's [[{{Tsundere}} arch]][[SheIsNotMyGirlfriend rival]] Switzerland. Too bad he forgets that for Switzerland, nothing is nobler than thrift.
* KnightInSourArmor: Austria's stoic, seemingly aloof facade tends to give this image of him in public.
* LadyAndKnight: Compared to Hungary, he's the "lady."
* {{Megane}}
** StoicSpectacles: Actually, Austria has a great emotional range: he can be 'solemn', 'sullen', 'stern', 'saturnine', 'harsh' and 'sterner'.
* TheManBehindTheMan: Through the Habsburgs, he was essentially this to the HRE.
* NeatFreak: As an aristocrat, he gets angry when seen disheveled. Even if it's by his ''wife''. At least in public anyway.
** On the other hand, it's shown that in private he's not as stringent in keeping up appearances.
* NonActionGuy: Much to Switzerland's frustration. Luckily, his partner and wife is a NinjaMaid who's more than happy to fight for him, while he remains as MissionControl.
** Also lampshaded in a strip where it's revealed that his fastest walking pace is ''[[TheSlowWalk slower than everyone else]].''
* NoSenseOfDirection: Says WordOfGod. Alluded to in the Valentine's strip when Austria is about to go out to get something for Hungary, and Germany tells him that he won't be able to come get him if he gets lost. Austria decides to make something with his own hands instead.
** Again alluded to in HetaliaBloodbath2010 when he gets lost looking for the phone ''that's just in the next room.''
* NotSoStoic: He ''does'' have [[TheStoic considerable control over his emotions]]. But even he has certain limits.
* OnlySaneMan: He sees himself as one, ''especially'' compared to Prussia.
* PlayingCyrano: In the Valentine's strip, Germany asks him for help and advice on dealing with Italy.
* PrincelyYoungMan: Of the IceKing type. He's described often as a 'young master' type of character.
* PurelyAestheticGlasses: WordOfGod says he's wearing glasses because he looks [[GenericCuteness rather plain without them]]. The ArtEvolution, however, [[http://himaruya.blog61.fc2.com/blog-entry-961.html has hit him particularly hard.]]
* PurpleEyes: Alluded to PurpleIsPowerful with the House of Hapsburg.
* RealMenWearPink: He sees himself as highly cultured, enjoys gardening and seems to be better at making pastries than actually fighting. And that's not counting the corset in ''HetaliaBloodbath2011''. This is in turn in contrast to Hungary.
* RelationshipVoiceActor: See Hungary.
* ShipperOnDeck: Ships Germany/North Italy in the Buon San Valentino strips.
* SugarAndIcePersonality: He really ''is'' or at least can be soft and gentle beneath his stoic facade.
* SupremeChef: Implied at first, [[http://losthitsu.tumblr.com/post/30599497705/birz-10-translation confirmed here]] His speciality is [[SweetTooth baking]].
* TeamDad: To TheClan.
* [[TallDarkAndHandsome Tall, Dark, Handsome]] [[TallDarkAndSnarky And More Than A Bit Snarky.]]
* UnderstandingBoyfriend: While he's concerned for Hungary's well-being, in the end he knows that if she wants to fight, he'd better let her... since she will go [[OneManArmy One Woman Army]] and destroy the enemy. Considering [[VictoriousChildhoodFriend their childhood]], [[LoveAtFirstPunch he knows it firsthand!]]
* UptightLovesWild: Him and Hungary, specially now that they're still somewhat in a relationship despite their divorce.
* VestigialEmpire: He may no longer be a high and mighty Empire (and he sure misses it). But that hasn't stopped him from ''acting'' as though he still is one.
* WeakButSkilled: As Maria Theresa so aptly demonstrated, he's not exactly the epitome of fitness even back in his GloryDays. On the other hand, he ''is'' shown to be very talented in general and also tries his best to perform well in the battlefield whether it works or not.
* WhyDidItHaveToBeSnakes: He's TERRIFIED of sea creatures according to a Drama CD where he freaks out twice from Italy's catches, once over a crab and once over a sea star.

* AboveGoodAndEvil
* AirGuitar: Does this with a broom in the anime. And it's glorious.
* AttentionWhore
-->"I really wanna make an appearance. One that will burn the memory of my existence into their hearts."
* BadassAdorable: Back when he was younger, especially.
* BadassCape: During the Maria Theresa story arc.
* BadassLongRobe: Wears a white surcoat while being the [[TheTheocracy Monastic State]] of TheTeutonicKnights, and a black religious roeb while being the Duchy of Prussia.
* BasementDweller: Pretty much stated to have become one in modern times, via author notes:
-->"Now he lives as a good-for-nothing at Germany's house and as an exclave in Russia!"
** {{Neet}}
* BeamMeUpScotty - NeverLiveItDown: ''He'' never said anything about "vital regions". ''Others'' did it (namely: Austria, Spain, Lithuania, and Hungary)
* BeneathTheMask: Pretends to be an arrogant jerk, but really he's just lonely.
** Though he really ''is'' arrogant and rude at least to some extent. However, he does have other kinds of feelings too - namely loneliness - he just doesn't show them to others, letting them see only his {{Jerkass}} persona. Also see HiddenDepths below.
* BerserkButton: Prussia seems to have a number of these, such as words that sound like Mark.
* BigBrotherMentor: He's supposed to be this to Germany. Even though he doesn't really accomplish his job.
** He had better results with America, though. Sort of.
* BiTheWay: Has had some "moments" with Hungary, and is apparently interested in Italy. Not to mention there's the FoeYay with Austria...
* BlatantLies: He's so happy being alone! And no, he's [[SuspiciouslySpecificDenial absolutely not bitter at the sight of couples filling the street around him!]]
* BloodKnight: He was created to attack and enslave all the other characters here and that's all he lives for.
* BoisterousBruiser: According to himself he likes [[BloodKnight fighting]], [[BigEater eating]], [[HeavySleeper sleeping]] and [[PetTheDog Old Fritz.]] Is almost always seen with [[PsychoticSmirk a big grin]] on his face.
* BreakTheHaughty: Whenever he tries to conquer and enslave others, even if he succeds, he'll be knocked off that pedestal VERY soon.
* BrokenAce: Subverted by the fact that he really isn't great at everything, he just thinks he is.
* ButtMonkey: Rarely survives an appearance without ending up as the butt of a joke.
* CelibateHero: Part of the package of being a Teutonic Knight. Then, he demands that Poland [[HoYay let him touch his balls.]]
* ChildhoodFriendRomance: Many fanworkers are fond of making him an UnluckyChildhoodFriend in regards to Hungary. He can also switch to VictoriousChildhoodFriend when written/drawn as a "[[SecondLove second option]]" for her (in either a SlapSlapKiss or TheMasochismTango way), if Hungary is not paired up with Austria.
** Considering Volume 3, Himaruya seemingly liked the idea and thought "SureWhyNot", hence the ShipTease going off the ceiling.
* ChivalrousPervert: As mentioned below, Prussia talks big, but when it comes to actually seeing his childhood "friend" Hungary pretty much ''naked'', [[http://community.livejournal.com/hetalia/7409189.html he freaks out]].
* CornerOfWoe: Prussia has an Altar of Woe.
* CuteBruiser: Especially back when he was a child.
* CuteButCacophonic: The [[AnnoyingLaugh laughter]] is only a beginning. In the {{Anime}} he even drinks beer while making annoying and ''strange'' sounds.
* CutenessProximity: "Gilbird!"
* DaddysGirl: Or boy, to Fritz.
** SubordinateExcuse: If we want it romantic. And yup, it's a popular match-up in fanon.
* DeathFic: Often gets them, as because of his dissolution it's rather likely he'll [[JerkassWoobie die some time in the near future.]]
* DeceasedParentsAreTheBest- Fritz was like a father to him. And he's dead. So…
* {{Diary}}: over 250,000 entries long, if he's really written in it every day. That ''was'' a pretty impressive library he opened up...
* {{Determinator}}: He has survived many disasters that could have killed some other nation-tan, or at least reduced them into insignificance. When whatever he is currently representing gets offed for good, he simply reshapes himself into something new and eventually makes a comeback. And through his darkest times he keeps up his highs spirits. One could argue that while he isn't [[SmallNameBigEgo as awesome as he thinks he is]], his true [[{{Badass}} Badassness]] is his hellbent [[HeroicSpirit refusal to go down and die.]]
* [[DotingParent Doting Big Brother]]: To Germany.
* DrillSergeantNasty: To America during UsefulNotes/TheAmericanRevolution.
* EarlyInstallmentWeirdness: Had blond hair and blue eyes in his earliest colored appearances. Himaruya quickly lightened his hair and gave him red eyes, as he felt the original color scheme made him look too much like Russia (although Russia's eyes would also be changed to purple).
* EastGermany: Became this after WW2. In a little panel, he arrived at Germany's house (after the reunification) in his [[http://himaruya.blog61.fc2.com/blog-entry-1406.html "cardboard car"]] (a reference to the infamous [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trabant Trabant]]).
* EvilAlbino: Less evil and more jerk, though.
* EvilLaugh: He's fufufu'd in his time.
** [[AnnoyingLaugh KESESESESE!]]
* FleetingPassionateHobbies
* FoolishSiblingResponsibleSibling: The foolish sibling to Germany responsible sibling. Or at least it ''looks'' like that in current times (see HiddenDepths).
* ForTheEvulz: On Valentine's and Xmas he realizes just how lonely he is...so this calls for ShipSinking.
* GlorySeeker
* HiddenDepths: Yes, really. According to WordOfGod his true nature is serious, methodical and severe.
* HotBlooded: Even after his dissolution.
** LargeHam: "PRAISE HIM!", indeed.
* IJustWantToBeBadass: He's willingly to do anything to become strong.
* ItsAllAboutMe: To the point of being a {{Narcissist}}.
* JapanesePronouns: He uses Ore-sama to refer to himself. That says a LOT.
** In English it tends to be translated as "the awesome me" by fansubs and fanfics.
* JerkAss: Played for laughs.
** JerkWithAHeartOfGold: Towards Germany, of course.
* {{Keet}}: Rather hilariously, as he seems to believe himself to be RatedMForManly.
* KickTheDog: Can be quite cruel to Austria.
** PetTheDog: Has also worried about and spent time with said aristocrat.
* LightIsNotGood: His TheTeutonicKnights uniform was white, and his flag is white with narrow black stripes.
* LonersAreFreaks: He claims that he enjoys being alone, but evidence says that [[ConfusingMultipleNegatives he doesn't enjoy not having friends]].
* OneOfTheKids
* AManIsNotAVirgin: Subverted! He is a Teutonic Knight so he musn't have sex.
** After becoming secularized he seems to have dropped his chasteness. Though we're let to understand he's not very succesful in courting anyone, so for all we know he could still be a virgin.
--->"The spot next to me is always open!"
* MenDontCry: Oh surely they do. Prussia breaks down in tears rather often, but mostly manages to pull off some sort of ManlyTears. While insisting things like
-->"I'm so happy to be alone it makes me cry!"
* MuggingTheMonster: Oh Prussia, it really isn't a good idea to pick fights with the resident PsychopathicManchild, especially when he's gonna seize control of you in the future...
* MusclesAreMeaningless: Apparently he is stronger than Germany!
** Season five of the anime shows him as pretty well toned, and he could go for lifting weights longer than Germany could.
* MysteriousPast: Usually with Hetalia you can pretty much read each character's life story from [[ThatOtherWiki Wikipedia.]] But this nation-tan character is more or less artifically created, as one cannot draw a clear line from TheTeutonicKnights to the kingdom of {{Prussia}}, let alone from there to EastGermany. (If he ever even becomes EastGermany. In his latest bio he is hinted to be Kaliningrad.) Therefore much of his life is left for CanonFodder.
* NeatFreak: Evidencing that he and Germany are NotSoDifferent after all.
* NiceHat: He actually wears the legendary/notorious ''[[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pickelhaube Pickelhaube]]'' in the Austro-Prussian War preview. (The image for Prussia and his soldiers wearing the ''Pickelhaube'' can be shown [[http://himaruya.blog61.fc2.com/blog-entry-1215.html here on an entry in Himaruya's blog]], [[{{Pun}} although you don't literally see the point on Prussia's hat]].)
** His 18th Century tricorne is pretty sweet, too.
* TheNicknamer: To some extend. West, Old Fritz, the Aristocrat, Four-Eyes, Specs, the Pervert...
* NoSocialSkills: Used for comedic purposes. His usual method of dealing with people is annoy them and see what happens.
-->"Alright! It's fun to poke that aristocrat and see his reaction!"
* NonHumanSideKick: [[FanNickname Gilbird]], a small yellow bird flying around him and perching on his head or shoulder.
* OOCIsSeriousBusiness: As he usually keeps up his [[StepfordSmiler grin]] even when he's feeling miserable or insecure, when he gets serious something big is going on. Most notably did this while Hungary came into accepting she's a female.
* PleasePutSomeClothesOn: [[http://pics.livejournal.com/melcratch/pic/00004xzk/ at the sight of a teenaged Hungary with her tunic ripped]], he blushes intensely and later hands her his own cape. [[ShipTease I can hear the Prussia/Hungary shippers squealing from here.]]
* PsychoticSmirk: His more usual smile.
* RaisedByDudes: Hinted by Hungary in one comic, mentioning how Prussia was "surrounded only by men" since birth.
** All the other characters are nations by birth, and have grown up representing normal people of both genders leading normal lives from the cradle to the grave. For a long time Prussia represented nothing but already grown-up males leading a militaristic, ascetic life style.
* RealMenLoveJesus: As a child.
* RedEyesTakeWarning
* RedOniBlueOni: With Germany. They even have red eyes and blue eyes, respectively.
* ReligiousBruiser: As a kid.
* SiblingYinYang: With Germany.
* SkinshipGrope: To Hungary, though [[UnsettlingGenderReveal he thought she was male]] at the time. That she is female is from then on abundantly clear.
* SmallNameBigEgo: Boasts about his skills and hot blood, but often [[ButtMonkey ends up beaten]].
** However he does have his moments of genuine [[{{Badass}} Badassery]], as anyone familiar with the SevenYearsWar could tell you.
* SmugSnake: He'd want to be a MagnificentBastard, but all too often he can't quite pull it off.
* SoulsavingCrusader
-->"Convert the nonbeliever!"
* TheSpartanWay
-->" Prussia around this time was really ghastly in a lot of ways, huh."
* SpellMyNameWithAnS: There is a speculation for the spelling of his surname for either "Weillschmidt" or "Beilschmidt". However, Beilschmidt is considered the more correct spelling by most fans, since it is an actual German name unlike Weillschmidt.
* SpoiledBrat: According to WordOfGod, he turned out the way he is because when he was [[TheTeutonicKnights a child]], ThePope let him do what ever he wished. Could be a case of ParentalNeglect too, if ThePope just didn't care about what he was doing.
* StepfordSmiler
-->"I enjoy being lonely!"
* TheStrategist: Learns his Strategy-fu from Old Fritz, and is later shown teaching it to Germany. It's [[CombatPragmatist necessary for him]], as he's not the nation blessed with the largest of population, or the most advantageous of geography.
* [[SuspiciouslySpecificDenial Suspiciously Specific Implausible Claim]]: He's incabable of admitting he's feeling any kind of weakness, sadness or fear.
* TheTeutonicKnights: The fact that Prussia was formed from [[ChurchMilitant an armed wing of the Catholic Church]] tells you everything about him you need to know. Canonically he's both this and later Prussia.
* ThrowTheDogABone: Once in a while he has good times with the other nations instead of being [[LonersAreFreaks left alone.]]
* TrademarkFavoriteFood: Beer, beer, beer!
** Also pancakes with maple syrup, ever since [[CanadaEh Canada]] introduced them to him.
** While potatoes are more connected with Germany, they deserve a special mention as Prussia was taught to eat them by Old Fritz. After some [[PickyEater persuading]], that is.
* TrainingFromHell: He does this on America during UsefulNotes/TheAmericanRevolution, where he forces him to do push ups while he whips him with a riding crop.
--> '''Author's Note''': Prussian-style is extremely harsh. Training; Abuse; Training; Abuse
* UndyingLoyalty: Said to be very loyal to his bosses, and shown to still be very fond of Old Fritz's memory.
* VitriolicBestBuds: With France. The whole Spain/France/Prussia friendship started out as {{Fanon}}, and was given SureWhyNot treatment by Himaruya.
** Also with Austria and Hungary.
* WarriorMonk: Was born as one.
* WhatCouldHaveBeen: He was initially to have long hair and facial characteristics more like Poland, as well as being more mature.

* BoisterousBruiser: Seems like one by his first appearance.
* {{Determinator}}: According to Prussia, Germany inherited his stubborness from him, Hesse and Saxony.

Referenced briefly to in Prussia's character song. Historically he's this to both Prussia ''and'' Austria, and sometimes played their own rivarly for his own ends.

!Central Europe
* AllThereInTheManual: Saxony and Bavaria (two other descendants of Germania) appear as background characters in the Austrian War of Secession. Saxony also appears in Comic Diary 7, Liechtenstein's Journal of Swiss Dopiness and Chibitalia (as one of HRE's bodyguards, but only in the manga). They are confirmed as elder brothers of Germany in the Prussia-centric ''Kuso-game'', along with the additional three states of Hesse, Schleswig-Holstein, and Brandenburg.
* AmicableExes: Austria and Hungary are shown as not only close friends but having feelings for each other to the point that they still act as HappilyMarried long after their divorce.
* AscendedExtra: Austria, Hungary and Prussia have clearly gotten this treatment, being major ensemble characters in themselves. Tied in with HeroOfAnotherStory.
* BigFancyHouse: Subverted and played straight:
** Subverted in the case of Chibitalia, Hungary, Austria and HRE. Austria's mansion ''is'' pretty big but the end of the Chibitalia strips suggests (if not outright states) that their spending wealth is very limited, which is remarked when [[spoiler: HRE leaves the mansion with other Germanic states.]]
** Played straight with the fancy palace where Austria and Hungary interact with MariaTheresa. It's a JustifiedTrope considering that Vienna is very famous for palaces like [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Belvedere_%28palace%29 Belvedere]] or [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sch%C3%B6nbrunn_Palace Schonbrunn]].
* BigScrewedUpFamily: The Germanic brothers aren't exactly the happiest bunch.
* CrossDresser: The Italies (when they were little). Although the Italies' dresses may be another [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Breeching_(boys) historical in-joke]].
** Hungary dressing up as a man at times, even when she grew up, could be seen as a holdover from her younger days when she thought herself as male.
* HairDecorations: Hungary has flower-shaped hairpins.
* HappilyMarried: Austria and Hungary, even though [[AmicableExes they're technically and formally divorced]].
* IneffectualSympatheticVillain / AntiVillain: Historically, they haven't always been associated with the "good guys," such as in WorldWarII. Then again, [[GreyAndGreyMorality given history...]]
* MasculineGirlFeminineBoy: Austria (though he's more a PrincelyYoungMan than girly) and Hungary (though she's more feminine than many blue girls).
* {{Meido}}: As a young child living with Austria, [[WholesomeCrossdresser Italy used to wear maid outfits]]. Especially in the Chibitalia chapter, which lampshades the trope when the Holy Roman Empire is seen with a portrait of Chibitalia and is asked if the model was a servant.
* OfficialCouple: Austria and Hungary.
* SavvyGuyEnergeticGirl: Austria and Hungary are the grown-up version of the trope. HRE and Chibitalia also fit... except that Chibitalia is a [[WholesomeCrossdresser a boy who dresses as a girl]]
* TheClan Of The Habsburgs
* TheSoundOfMartialMusic: Austria, though due to historical reasons Hungary plays a large role here as well.
* UnsettlingGenderReveal: Young Prussia used to think that young Hungary was a boy, until he got to grope her chest. And some other characters thought that Chibitalia (child North Italy) was a little girl (the Holy Roman Empire included), until he hit puberty.
** It's implied, however, that Austria was the ''only'' one in Italy's surrounding that, by the time he got his growth spurt, still ignored that he was a boy. Hungary is not surprised at all to see Italy as a young teenager, while Austria is.

* DoggedNiceGuy: Type 1 to Chibitalia.

* ActionGirl
* ActionGirlfriend: To Austria, though this overlaps with ViolentlyProtectiveGirlfriend once Prussia or France are involved. It's also hinted through canon (and expanded in fanworks) that she's the dominant one in the relationship.
* {{Badass}}: She's pretty much up there with Germany and Prussia in terms of kicking ass.
* BadassAdorable / CuteBruiser / GirlyBruiser: She started fighting when she was a little girl, and was able to take on both Prussia ''and'' Austria successfully. She also averts {{Chickification}} by both not being invincible in her "male" days ''and'' by being shown as physically strong (if not [[TookALevelInBadass even stronger]]) during her "maid" ones.
* BathingBeauty: She's seen taking a bath with Chibitalia in early strips, and a recent one has her [[http://i.imgur.com/fpAp2.jpg inviting Taiwan to have a soak in]] [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lake_H%C3%A9v%C3%ADz Lake Heviz]].
** Confirmed in her Volume 5 profile.
* BewareTheNiceOnes: This cute and sweet maid brutalizes Prussia's army, watches him get ready to sleep [[BladeOnAStick with a spear in hand]], and busts down a wall in his home to help out her beloved Austria.
* {{Bifauxnen}}: For a request during the April Fool's 2011 event, Himaruya drew her dressed in a [[KnightInShiningArmor prince-like outfit]] with Liechtenstein. She also had shades of this when she was younger before she discovered she was a woman.
** Her Halloween costume in the 2011 event was also a prince.
** Not to mention her fancy outfit in the [[HighSchoolAU Gakuen]] games also qualifies as this.
** And her uniform which is much more masculine than Belarus and Ukraine's.
* BiTheWay: She may have some shades of this... Hungary suggested that [[GagBoobs Ukraine]] should wear the traditional ancient Crete dress (which completely exposes the breasts) in this [[http://hetalia.livejournal.com/11219211.html comic strip]]
** And a blog post pretty much outright says she'll [[CutenessProximity go crazy for cute girls]] as much as she will with boys.
* BladeOnAStick: Hungary's WeaponOfChoice (aside of her [[FryingPanOfDoom frying pan]]). She also has [[{{BFG}} a rifle]], but we never see her use it.
* BloodKnight: She shows signs of then when she's ''very'' peeved. Namely when she's out kicking Prussia's ass.
* BodyguardCrush: Towards [[NonActionGuy Austria]].
* BoisterousBruiser: Can be easily seen as one of the rare female examples.
--> '''Hungary''': Seize vital regions, seize vital regions... CRUSH PRUSSIA! CRUSH PRUSSIA!
** Cranked UpToEleven in the anime, which adds a BattleAura to her SlasherSmile and a ''truly'' scary delivery of the MadnessMantra above by MichikoNeya. Austria wisely decides to just let her be... and the scene soon changes to her [[CurbStompBattle punching and kicking the living crap]] [[OneManArmy out of a whole Prussian army]].
* {{Bokukko}}: When she was a child, Hungary spoke rather boyishly, [[YouFailBiologyForever assuming that she was a boy and would grow up into a man]] (heck, when her breasts started developing, she actually thought that she was sick...). Ever since she grew out of this, though, she has perfectly feminine speech patterns, only reverting to boyish speech when she's ''very'' pissed off.
** WholesomeCrossdresser: Himaruya originally intended to have Hungary as a crossdressing male. He used this idea for Poland instead.
* BoobsOfSteel: Is very well-endowed (though not to Ukraine's GagBoobs levels), as shown in the scene from the "Noto-sama 5" game where [[http://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/44176775.jpg Yamato and Noto peep on her when she's changing clothes]]. Also, in every fanwork that feature "Bust Chart" she'll often be the second after Ukraine("Often", because she may trades place to either [[SelfFanservice Belarus or Taiwan]]).
* BrokenBird: Often portrayed like this in DarkFic.
* CameraFiend: The fans ''love'' to peg her as one, based on her YaoiFangirl status.
** Then again, she ''did'' take photos of the mess around Austria when he was groped by France.
* {{Chickification}}: Averted. She's actually ''manlier'' than a good chunk of the male cast. Doesn't stop "feminist fans" from falsely accusing her of this because she often fights to protect Austria, which apparently means she's "weak" and "submissive" to him.
** [[GirlyBruiser She also gained girlier outlooks and sides, and she's not exactly ashamed of them.]] This is a girl who can pull a very nice {{Bifauxnen}} stint, and yet wears her hair down and with HairDecorations as well.
* ChildhoodFriendRomance: With Austria.
* CoolBigSis: She seems to fit this for Liechtenstein, which fans like to really drive home.
* CovertPervert: She insists that her love for Austria is "pure," but all the footage she has of him in [[ShirtlessScene compromising]] [[BlackComedyRape positions]] [[YaoiFangirl says otherwise.]] Even ''France'' is amazed by how dirty her mind is.
* DaddysGirl: To [[DisappearedDad Magyar]]. Tomboy variant.
* DefeatByModesty. Subverted in [[http://pics.livejournal.com/melcratch/pic/00004xzk/ this strip]], where Hungary [[InnocentFanserviceGirl doesn't seem to care that her tunic has been ripped]] to AbsoluteCleavage levels after fighting Turkey. [[PleasePutSomeClothesOn Prussia's the one who cares more.]]
* FlowerInHerHair: She uses flowers and/or flower-shaped hair jewelry. Her pink flower hairpin (apparently a [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Geranium geranium]]) symbolizes [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lake_Balaton Lake Balaton aka The Hungarian Sea]], BTW.
* FryingPanOfDoom: Contrary to what {{fanon}} says, she doesn't attack Prussia this... ''France'' is more likely to be her fry-panning target. The frying pan probably comes from 'László the Brave,' a Hungarian slapstick comedy in the vein of 'Punch and Judy,' where the titular hero uses a huge frying pan to beat up his enemies.
* GirlinessUpgrade: From a CuteBruiser {{Bokukko}}, to a TeamMom NinjaMaid. [[WhatMeasureIsANonBadass Some fans don't like it AT ALL, though.]]
* GreenEyes: Justified, as it turns out. Hungary has one of the highest percentages of green eyes in Europe.
* HeroicBSOD: HetaliaHetaween2013 shows that she feels more meek when she's overwhelmed.
* HiddenBuxom: There was a minor panic over the Volume 5 cover, which seemed to give her a much smaller chest in her uniform but when [[http://img341.imageshack.us/img341/2346/swimsuitr.jpg she was drawn in a swimsuit]], however, the fear was rapidly lost. [[TruthInTelevision Justified in that military uniforms are rather bulky and not necessarily all that flattering.]]
** Averted with her [[ChainmailBikini old armor]], which serves to ''really'' highlight her assets.
* ImprobableWeaponUser: Is seen beating up France with her FryingPanOfDoom. [[FaNon Never Prussia, despite what fanon says.]]
* InnocentFanserviceGirl: She didn't seem to mind the fact that her clothes got torn up in one strip, revealing her breasts to Prussia.
* InSeriesNickname: She's called Hun-chan ("Hunny" or "Hun-baby") by Ukraine.
* LadyAndKnight: A rare genderflipped example in that Hungary has many traits of a ''knight'' rather than a lady (despite being rather feminine herself).
* MsFanservice: In the rare occasion that a female character is on the receiving end of fanservice, it tends to be her. ([[YaoiFangirl It's only fair!]])
* NamedAfterSomebodyFamous: Some fans suspected that she was named after the infamous [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Elizabeth_B%C3%A1thory Elizabeth Báthory]]. The outfit that she wore for HetaliaHetaween2013 more or less confirm this.
* NightmareFetishist: According to her Volume 5 profile.
--> ''She loves the hot springs and she likes to sing scary songs!''
* NinjaMaid: Hungary often dresses up as a {{meido}} (especially in the MariaTheresa mini arc). She's also very willing to use her spear to defend herself and/or Austria. Her outfit is a mix of [[http://hungaria.org/ahm/index.php?projectid=4&menuid=194#239 traditional Hungarian dress]] or folk attire and a maid outfit. In ''Chibitalia'' we see Italy working as a maid at the "Holy Roman Empire Household" and dressing up as a maid, and when Hungary is introduced as his CoolBigSis it's said they're technically in the same situation. And in "France and the frying pan", she's clearly wearing a normal maid outfit.
* OneOfTheBoys: Often portrayed as this in fandom, as well as in canon itself.
* OtakuSurrogate: Fangirls adore the fact that the girl who appears the most loves male-on-male porn as much as they do.
* PantyShot: [[http://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/kaeriuti.gif Courtesy of France, of course]].
* ParentalSubstitute: Towards Chibitalia.
* PassionateSportsGirl: Play this role in Gakuen Hetalia. She's a member of the swimming team and in the most recent Gakuen strip/TV episode she and Australia are seen lounging around in swimsuits. The PSP game also has her in a sports competition.
* PlatonicLifePartners: Kinda hinted to be this with Poland, which is supported by the historical connections between both nations. She refers to him as "Po-chan" ("Popo"), to start.
* PluckyGirl: And how.
* RaisedAsTheOppositeGender: As a child, Hungary had apparently been raised as a boy and even thought herself as one until she recognized herself as a girl. But while she's since become more feminine, there's still a good deal of her masculine upbringing left over especially when she's pissed off.
* RapunzelHair: It often depends on the strip, but her hair sometimes is drawn to be past her waist and incredibly thick and wavy.
* RelationshipVoiceActor: In the dub [[SoulEater Medusa and Stein]] are in a loving relationship...enjoy the MindScrew!
* SexySantaDress: She's shown wearing one rather seductively in the 2009 Christmas strips.
* SheCleansUpNicely: Wears a PimpedOutDress and jewelry [[http://www.geocities.co.jp/himaruya/xmas20113.html in the Christmas strips for 2010]]. Himaruya later drew her in an even more pimped out dress, alongside Prussia in a nice suit.
** While not ''quite'' as pimped out, Himaruya also drew her wearing a simple, but very elegant dress alongside Austria.
** Her prince outfit in ''Hetaween2011'' is also ''very'' impeccable.
* ShesGotLegs: As illustrations of her [[ChainmailBikini old armor]] highlight.
* {{Shotacon}}: Either this or ''extreme'' CutenessProximity.
* SingleWomanSeeksGoodMan: She and Austria. In her own words from the ''Gakuen Hetalia'' script: "My heart is Austrian territory!"
** Also slightly subverted, due to her status as a YaoiFangirl. She does love and care for Austria, but rarely minds seeing her husband/boyfriend being felt up by other males...
* SitcomArchnemesis: She gets riled up whenever Romania's around. As shown in the 2011 Bloodbath, wherein there's already a bad tension in the air when Romania appears before they engage in massive PassiveAggressiveKombat. The 2013 Hetaween meanwhile suggests that she also feels this way to a smaller degree whenever France, Spain and Prussia are around.
* SpellMyNameWithAnS: Elisabeth, Elisaveta, Erzsébet, Elizabeth...?
* StayInTheKitchen: Inverted and subverted. Aside from becoming tough out of necessity, upon realizing that she's female, Hungary seems fine slipping into a more "womanly" mold and becoming Austria's maid. On the other hand, it's shown over time that just because she's a woman [[TookALevelInBadass doesn't mean she's any less badass than the male Nations]]. It's no surprise that as an adult, she's both clearly feminine and one of the ''manlier'' characters in ''Hetalia.''
* SweetPollyOliver: Back when she thought herself a boy. Although even grown up, her uniforms tend to be very masculine.
* {{Tsundere}}: She has hints of this, especially with Austria and Prussia. Her dynamic with Austria over the centuries is also described as one of both defiance and deep longing.
* UnsettlingGenderReveal: Prussia, possibly several other nations, and ''Hungary herself'' were all rather surprised to find out that Hungary was a girl.
* ViolentlyProtectiveGirlfriend: For Austria. So much that she once was pictured in the main page.
* VitriolicBestBuds: She's sort of like this with Prussia.
* WhatCouldHaveBeen: Along with the idea for Hungary as a man, Himaruya had another idea for her personality, with her being a snide and witchy type of woman who would shoot people full of arrows if they mistook her for a guy. The basis of her current design and this rejected personality were in turn recycled from a Hungarian witch character in a series that never materialized.
* YaoiFangirl: Hungary loves nothing more than watching men having sex. Even if it's her ''husband''. Who are we kidding, she loves it ''especially'' if it's her husband. ("Platonic and pure love", OUR FEET!) JustifiedTrope to a degree, considering Hungary's fame on pornography.
* ZettaiRyouiki: Grade C in [[HighSchoolAU Gakuen Hetalia]]. One of her outfits when she was younger came ''close'' to a Grade A with ThighHighBoots, but they came up over her pants/leggings.

* [[AloofBigBrother Aloof Big]] [[BigBrotherMentor Brother Mentor]]: Though he served as Italy's mentor and brother figure when Italy was a child, he was also very strict and cold.
** Germany refers to him as a brother figure in the recent manga, and while still a little cold he isn't ''as'' strict.
* AwesomeAnachronisticApparel: Compared to most of the Nations, he's more often seen in older suits, is even seen in some canon works gardening while in 18th Century attire and almost ''always'' wears a [[https://www.google.com/search?hl=en&q=jabot&bav=on.2,or.r_gc.r_pw.r_qf.&bvm=bv.1355534169,d.aWM&bpcl=40096503&biw=1600&bih=730&um=1&ie=UTF-8&tbm=isch&source=og&sa=N&tab=wi&ei=CX3bUO_6G8X2qwGLuoHABQ jabot.]]
* BeautyMark
* {{Bishonen}}: While it could be argued that this applies to a lot of characters, ArtEvolution seems to be hitting Austria hard in the latest manga volumes.
* BlueBlood: His personality has elements of this.
* ChildhoodFriendRomance: With Hungary. [[LoveAtFirstPunch Even when she used to pick on him.]]
* CrouchingMoronHiddenBadass: Despite being a {{Non Action Guy}} nowadays, he used to be quite the fighter, and his armies are magnificent! [[TheSoundOfMartialMusic Which is]] TruthInTelevision.
** Also, in oen of the strips when he's under attack and both he and Russia are stuck - he refuses to leave the battlefield and attempts to get free from the borderline quicksand he's stuck into. For a NonActionGuy, that's quite impressive.
* DichterAndDenker: The Dichter part, his musical skill being a nod to Austria's famous composers.
* ElegantClassicalMusician: Really handsome, really skilled in piano playing. The official calendar and several fanarts also make him a skilled violinist.
* ErmineCapeEffect: Subverted. While most of his outfits aren't flashy, there's still an element of elegance and class in them, his cravat being a constant.
* EvenTheGuysWantHim: While pretty much ''every'' male has this going on, let's not forget that his beautiful ''wife'' loves seeing them hit on him in canon.
* FantasticArousal: [[BeautyMark Well...]]
* FashionDissonance: He tends to dress in more old-fashioned manners, sometimes mixing elements from earlier time periods.
* GloryDays: Similarly to Prussia, he clearly misses his days as a great Empire.
* HeyItsThatVoice: Akira Sasanuma aka [[GundamSEED Dearka]] [[GundamSEEDDestiny Elsman]] and [[CrushGearTurbo the heir of the Manganji clan.]]
** He's also [[VideoGame/TheLegendOfZeldaTwilightPrincess Link]]!
* IdiotHair: Represents [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mariazell Mariazell]].
* IllBoy: He was in a wheelchair for a time, according to [[AllThereInTheManual some of Himaruya's notes]] Also, in a recent manga strip he's seen with injuries in his hands and rather weakened.
* ImpoverishedPatrician: Just because the glory days of the Habsburgs are over doesn't mean Austria has to act like it. Prussia tries to blow his cover on his penny-pinching ways to Austria's [[{{Tsundere}} arch]][[SheIsNotMyGirlfriend rival]] Switzerland. Too bad he forgets that for Switzerland, nothing is nobler than thrift.
* KnightInSourArmor: Austria's stoic, seemingly aloof facade tends to give this image of him in public.
* LadyAndKnight: Compared to Hungary, he's the "lady."
* {{Megane}}
** StoicSpectacles: Actually, Austria has a great emotional range: he can be 'solemn', 'sullen', 'stern', 'saturnine', 'harsh' and 'sterner'.
* TheManBehindTheMan: Through the Habsburgs, he was essentially this to the HRE.
* NeatFreak: As an aristocrat, he gets angry when seen disheveled. Even if it's by his ''wife''. At least in public anyway.
** On the other hand, it's shown that in private he's not as stringent in keeping up appearances.
* NonActionGuy: Much to Switzerland's frustration. Luckily, his partner and wife is a NinjaMaid who's more than happy to fight for him, while he remains as MissionControl.
** Also lampshaded in a strip where it's revealed that his fastest walking pace is ''[[TheSlowWalk slower than everyone else]].''
* NoSenseOfDirection: Says WordOfGod. Alluded to in the Valentine's strip when Austria is about to go out to get something for Hungary, and Germany tells him that he won't be able to come get him if he gets lost. Austria decides to make something with his own hands instead.
** Again alluded to in HetaliaBloodbath2010 when he gets lost looking for the phone ''that's just in the next room.''
* NotSoStoic: He ''does'' have [[TheStoic considerable control over his emotions]]. But even he has certain limits.
* OnlySaneMan: He sees himself as one, ''especially'' compared to Prussia.
* PlayingCyrano: In the Valentine's strip, Germany asks him for help and advice on dealing with Italy.
* PrincelyYoungMan: Of the IceKing type. He's described often as a 'young master' type of character.
* PurelyAestheticGlasses: WordOfGod says he's wearing glasses because he looks [[GenericCuteness rather plain without them]]. The ArtEvolution, however, [[http://himaruya.blog61.fc2.com/blog-entry-961.html has hit him particularly hard.]]
* PurpleEyes: Alluded to PurpleIsPowerful with the House of Hapsburg.
* RealMenWearPink: He sees himself as highly cultured, enjoys gardening and seems to be better at making pastries than actually fighting. And that's not counting the corset in ''HetaliaBloodbath2011''. This is in turn in contrast to Hungary.
* RelationshipVoiceActor: See Hungary.
* ShipperOnDeck: Ships Germany/North Italy in the Buon San Valentino strips.
* SugarAndIcePersonality: He really ''is'' or at least can be soft and gentle beneath his stoic facade.
* SupremeChef: Implied at first, [[http://losthitsu.tumblr.com/post/30599497705/birz-10-translation confirmed here]] His speciality is [[SweetTooth baking]].
* TeamDad: To TheClan.
* [[TallDarkAndHandsome Tall, Dark, Handsome]] [[TallDarkAndSnarky And More Than A Bit Snarky.]]
* UnderstandingBoyfriend: While he's concerned for Hungary's well-being, in the end he knows that if she wants to fight, he'd better let her... since she will go [[OneManArmy One Woman Army]] and destroy the enemy. Considering [[VictoriousChildhoodFriend their childhood]], [[LoveAtFirstPunch he knows it firsthand!]]
* UptightLovesWild: Him and Hungary, specially now that they're still somewhat in a relationship despite their divorce.
* VestigialEmpire: He may no longer be a high and mighty Empire (and he sure misses it). But that hasn't stopped him from ''acting'' as though he still is one.
* WeakButSkilled: As Maria Theresa so aptly demonstrated, he's not exactly the epitome of fitness even back in his GloryDays. On the other hand, he ''is'' shown to be very talented in general and also tries his best to perform well in the battlefield whether it works or not.
* WhyDidItHaveToBeSnakes: He's TERRIFIED of sea creatures according to a Drama CD where he freaks out twice from Italy's catches, once over a crab and once over a sea star.

* AboveGoodAndEvil
* AirGuitar: Does this with a broom in the anime. And it's glorious.
* AttentionWhore
-->"I really wanna make an appearance. One that will burn the memory of my existence into their hearts."
* BadassAdorable: Back when he was younger, especially.
* BadassCape: During the Maria Theresa story arc.
* BadassLongRobe: Wears a white surcoat while being the [[TheTheocracy Monastic State]] of TheTeutonicKnights, and a black religious roeb while being the Duchy of Prussia.
* BasementDweller: Pretty much stated to have become one in modern times, via author notes:
-->"Now he lives as a good-for-nothing at Germany's house and as an exclave in Russia!"
** {{Neet}}
* BeamMeUpScotty - NeverLiveItDown: ''He'' never said anything about "vital regions". ''Others'' did it (namely: Austria, Spain, Lithuania, and Hungary)
* BeneathTheMask: Pretends to be an arrogant jerk, but really he's just lonely.
** Though he really ''is'' arrogant and rude at least to some extent. However, he does have other kinds of feelings too - namely loneliness - he just doesn't show them to others, letting them see only his {{Jerkass}} persona. Also see HiddenDepths below.
* BerserkButton: Prussia seems to have a number of these, such as words that sound like Mark.
* BigBrotherMentor: He's supposed to be this to Germany. Even though he doesn't really accomplish his job.
** He had better results with America, though. Sort of.
* BiTheWay: Has had some "moments" with Hungary, and is apparently interested in Italy. Not to mention there's the FoeYay with Austria...
* BlatantLies: He's so happy being alone! And no, he's [[SuspiciouslySpecificDenial absolutely not bitter at the sight of couples filling the street around him!]]
* BloodKnight: He was created to attack and enslave all the other characters here and that's all he lives for.
* BoisterousBruiser: According to himself he likes [[BloodKnight fighting]], [[BigEater eating]], [[HeavySleeper sleeping]] and [[PetTheDog Old Fritz.]] Is almost always seen with [[PsychoticSmirk a big grin]] on his face.
* BreakTheHaughty: Whenever he tries to conquer and enslave others, even if he succeds, he'll be knocked off that pedestal VERY soon.
* BrokenAce: Subverted by the fact that he really isn't great at everything, he just thinks he is.
* ButtMonkey: Rarely survives an appearance without ending up as the butt of a joke.
* CelibateHero: Part of the package of being a Teutonic Knight. Then, he demands that Poland [[HoYay let him touch his balls.]]
* ChildhoodFriendRomance: Many fanworkers are fond of making him an UnluckyChildhoodFriend in regards to Hungary. He can also switch to VictoriousChildhoodFriend when written/drawn as a "[[SecondLove second option]]" for her (in either a SlapSlapKiss or TheMasochismTango way), if Hungary is not paired up with Austria.
** Considering Volume 3, Himaruya seemingly liked the idea and thought "SureWhyNot", hence the ShipTease going off the ceiling.
* ChivalrousPervert: As mentioned below, Prussia talks big, but when it comes to actually seeing his childhood "friend" Hungary pretty much ''naked'', [[http://community.livejournal.com/hetalia/7409189.html he freaks out]].
* CornerOfWoe: Prussia has an Altar of Woe.
* CuteBruiser: Especially back when he was a child.
* CuteButCacophonic: The [[AnnoyingLaugh laughter]] is only a beginning. In the {{Anime}} he even drinks beer while making annoying and ''strange'' sounds.
* CutenessProximity: "Gilbird!"
* DaddysGirl: Or boy, to Fritz.
** SubordinateExcuse: If we want it romantic. And yup, it's a popular match-up in fanon.
* DeathFic: Often gets them, as because of his dissolution it's rather likely he'll [[JerkassWoobie die some time in the near future.]]
* DeceasedParentsAreTheBest- Fritz was like a father to him. And he's dead. So…
* {{Diary}}: over 250,000 entries long, if he's really written in it every day. That ''was'' a pretty impressive library he opened up...
* {{Determinator}}: He has survived many disasters that could have killed some other nation-tan, or at least reduced them into insignificance. When whatever he is currently representing gets offed for good, he simply reshapes himself into something new and eventually makes a comeback. And through his darkest times he keeps up his highs spirits. One could argue that while he isn't [[SmallNameBigEgo as awesome as he thinks he is]], his true [[{{Badass}} Badassness]] is his hellbent [[HeroicSpirit refusal to go down and die.]]
* [[DotingParent Doting Big Brother]]: To Germany.
* DrillSergeantNasty: To America during UsefulNotes/TheAmericanRevolution.
* EarlyInstallmentWeirdness: Had blond hair and blue eyes in his earliest colored appearances. Himaruya quickly lightened his hair and gave him red eyes, as he felt the original color scheme made him look too much like Russia (although Russia's eyes would also be changed to purple).
* EastGermany: Became this after WW2. In a little panel, he arrived at Germany's house (after the reunification) in his [[http://himaruya.blog61.fc2.com/blog-entry-1406.html "cardboard car"]] (a reference to the infamous [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trabant Trabant]]).
* EvilAlbino: Less evil and more jerk, though.
* EvilLaugh: He's fufufu'd in his time.
** [[AnnoyingLaugh KESESESESE!]]
* FleetingPassionateHobbies
* FoolishSiblingResponsibleSibling: The foolish sibling to Germany responsible sibling. Or at least it ''looks'' like that in current times (see HiddenDepths).
* ForTheEvulz: On Valentine's and Xmas he realizes just how lonely he is...so this calls for ShipSinking.
* GlorySeeker
* HiddenDepths: Yes, really. According to WordOfGod his true nature is serious, methodical and severe.
* HotBlooded: Even after his dissolution.
** LargeHam: "PRAISE HIM!", indeed.
* IJustWantToBeBadass: He's willingly to do anything to become strong.
* ItsAllAboutMe: To the point of being a {{Narcissist}}.
* JapanesePronouns: He uses Ore-sama to refer to himself. That says a LOT.
** In English it tends to be translated as "the awesome me" by fansubs and fanfics.
* JerkAss: Played for laughs.
** JerkWithAHeartOfGold: Towards Germany, of course.
* {{Keet}}: Rather hilariously, as he seems to believe himself to be RatedMForManly.
* KickTheDog: Can be quite cruel to Austria.
** PetTheDog: Has also worried about and spent time with said aristocrat.
* LightIsNotGood: His TheTeutonicKnights uniform was white, and his flag is white with narrow black stripes.
* LonersAreFreaks: He claims that he enjoys being alone, but evidence says that [[ConfusingMultipleNegatives he doesn't enjoy not having friends]].
* OneOfTheKids
* AManIsNotAVirgin: Subverted! He is a Teutonic Knight so he musn't have sex.
** After becoming secularized he seems to have dropped his chasteness. Though we're let to understand he's not very succesful in courting anyone, so for all we know he could still be a virgin.
--->"The spot next to me is always open!"
* MenDontCry: Oh surely they do. Prussia breaks down in tears rather often, but mostly manages to pull off some sort of ManlyTears. While insisting things like
-->"I'm so happy to be alone it makes me cry!"
* MuggingTheMonster: Oh Prussia, it really isn't a good idea to pick fights with the resident PsychopathicManchild, especially when he's gonna seize control of you in the future...
* MusclesAreMeaningless: Apparently he is stronger than Germany!
** Season five of the anime shows him as pretty well toned, and he could go for lifting weights longer than Germany could.
* MysteriousPast: Usually with Hetalia you can pretty much read each character's life story from [[ThatOtherWiki Wikipedia.]] But this nation-tan character is more or less artifically created, as one cannot draw a clear line from TheTeutonicKnights to the kingdom of {{Prussia}}, let alone from there to EastGermany. (If he ever even becomes EastGermany. In his latest bio he is hinted to be Kaliningrad.) Therefore much of his life is left for CanonFodder.
* NeatFreak: Evidencing that he and Germany are NotSoDifferent after all.
* NiceHat: He actually wears the legendary/notorious ''[[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pickelhaube Pickelhaube]]'' in the Austro-Prussian War preview. (The image for Prussia and his soldiers wearing the ''Pickelhaube'' can be shown [[http://himaruya.blog61.fc2.com/blog-entry-1215.html here on an entry in Himaruya's blog]], [[{{Pun}} although you don't literally see the point on Prussia's hat]].)
** His 18th Century tricorne is pretty sweet, too.
* TheNicknamer: To some extend. West, Old Fritz, the Aristocrat, Four-Eyes, Specs, the Pervert...
* NoSocialSkills: Used for comedic purposes. His usual method of dealing with people is annoy them and see what happens.
-->"Alright! It's fun to poke that aristocrat and see his reaction!"
* NonHumanSideKick: [[FanNickname Gilbird]], a small yellow bird flying around him and perching on his head or shoulder.
* OOCIsSeriousBusiness: As he usually keeps up his [[StepfordSmiler grin]] even when he's feeling miserable or insecure, when he gets serious something big is going on. Most notably did this while Hungary came into accepting she's a female.
* PleasePutSomeClothesOn: [[http://pics.livejournal.com/melcratch/pic/00004xzk/ at the sight of a teenaged Hungary with her tunic ripped]], he blushes intensely and later hands her his own cape. [[ShipTease I can hear the Prussia/Hungary shippers squealing from here.]]
* PsychoticSmirk: His more usual smile.
* RaisedByDudes: Hinted by Hungary in one comic, mentioning how Prussia was "surrounded only by men" since birth.
** All the other characters are nations by birth, and have grown up representing normal people of both genders leading normal lives from the cradle to the grave. For a long time Prussia represented nothing but already grown-up males leading a militaristic, ascetic life style.
* RealMenLoveJesus: As a child.
* RedEyesTakeWarning
* RedOniBlueOni: With Germany. They even have red eyes and blue eyes, respectively.
* ReligiousBruiser: As a kid.
* SiblingYinYang: With Germany.
* SkinshipGrope: To Hungary, though [[UnsettlingGenderReveal he thought she was male]] at the time. That she is female is from then on abundantly clear.
* SmallNameBigEgo: Boasts about his skills and hot blood, but often [[ButtMonkey ends up beaten]].
** However he does have his moments of genuine [[{{Badass}} Badassery]], as anyone familiar with the SevenYearsWar could tell you.
* SmugSnake: He'd want to be a MagnificentBastard, but all too often he can't quite pull it off.
* SoulsavingCrusader
-->"Convert the nonbeliever!"
* TheSpartanWay
-->" Prussia around this time was really ghastly in a lot of ways, huh."
* SpellMyNameWithAnS: There is a speculation for the spelling of his surname for either "Weillschmidt" or "Beilschmidt". However, Beilschmidt is considered the more correct spelling by most fans, since it is an actual German name unlike Weillschmidt.
* SpoiledBrat: According to WordOfGod, he turned out the way he is because when he was [[TheTeutonicKnights a child]], ThePope let him do what ever he wished. Could be a case of ParentalNeglect too, if ThePope just didn't care about what he was doing.
* StepfordSmiler
-->"I enjoy being lonely!"
* TheStrategist: Learns his Strategy-fu from Old Fritz, and is later shown teaching it to Germany. It's [[CombatPragmatist necessary for him]], as he's not the nation blessed with the largest of population, or the most advantageous of geography.
* [[SuspiciouslySpecificDenial Suspiciously Specific Implausible Claim]]: He's incabable of admitting he's feeling any kind of weakness, sadness or fear.
* TheTeutonicKnights: The fact that Prussia was formed from [[ChurchMilitant an armed wing of the Catholic Church]] tells you everything about him you need to know. Canonically he's both this and later Prussia.
