* The famous and popular USUK doujinshii ''To the New World with Love'' subjects America to this treatment. Here he is portrayed as [[ChildrenAreInnocent a once innocent child nation]] who [[TookALevelInJerkAss grows into]] [[DrunkWithPower a power-hungry]] [[JerkAss bastard]] who causes misery to the whole world as he expands his influence, opposite an England who's ''yet again'' made into a PurityStu who [[BreakTheCutie willingly subjects himself to horrible mental/emotional pain to "stop" him]] [[spoiler: including a more-than-a-century-long ThanatosGambit]]. We as readers are supposed to believe that America is an horrible asshole without any redeeming qualities [[LoveRedeems and who can only be redeemed through England's "pure and selfless" love]], and that [[PurityStu England]] is [[ProtagonistCenteredMorality flawlessly right]] instead of a mentally/emotionally unbalanced LoveMartyr.
* The Russia/America fic "The Chosen End" is also pretty well known for subjecting England, of all nations, to this, all to favor Russia and America getting together. It's not helped by how the author wrote a fic where England is a crazy {{Yandere}} who tortures a [[WimpifiCation wimpified, helpless]] America and sends him crying to [[DracoInLeatherPants Russia]].

** Actually, the original manga shows the nations having at least some degree of respect and care for their citizens if they're good people. France is rather kind to a young soldier whom he befriends in WorldWarOne, and Cameroon is a GentleGiant who teaches how to play soccer to the kids of his land.

[[AC: Fan Works]]
* One rather infamous example would be the Financial Crisis Gangbang, where someone on the Kink Meme requested a group of nations violently punishing America for causing another depression through his carelessness. The result was a fancomic in which America is [[FridgeLogic somehow]] restrained by duct tape and horrifically raped and humiliated by England, France, both Italies, Germany, China, Japan, Prussia, and Russia. While all of those characters have, in canon, had times where they were pissed with America, the whole thing is ''way'' over what any of them have ever done (not to mention that in canon, their attitudes over the economy screw-up ranges from being obviously distressed to blaming America for being young and stupid to insulting him). A few follow-up fics have the offending nations suffer the same treatment, with them feeling entirely justified in what they did and wondering why America isn't simply walking off the trauma of being gangraped by his friends and family.
* The doujinshii circle Hakka Pink is... quite polemic in some part of the USUK fandom due to their extremely unflattering portrayal of France. Yes, historically France ''did'' meddle in TheAmericanRevolution, but the dj'ka take that role and turn it UpToEleven via making France pretty much into America's EvilMentor solely to make a PurityStu-fied England suffer.
* One of the biggest criticism to the also very polemic AllHeEverWanted is how it falls into this trope in regards to England, Japan, North Italy and '''specially''' Prussia, making the fic a very thinly-veiled AuthorTract full of WriterOnBoard rants put in the chara's mouths and actions:
** England: {{Tsundere}} former empire (canon) --> mentally-unstable MadOracle who supports the Axis and makes the world total shit because of it (AHEW verse)
** Japan: (PlayedForLaughs) YamatoNadeshiko who is good friends with England (canon) --> LawfulEvil ManipulativeBastard who dooms the world to chaos for keeping the Anglo-Japanese Alliance and only cares about England for his own benefit (AHEW verse)
** North Italy: TheDitz {{Keet}} (canon) --> PsychopathicManchild who [[spoiler: murders Greece]] and treats his ''fratello'' South Italy like shit [[spoiler: and makes hom run away from home]] (AHEW verse)
** Prussia. HotBlooded ButtMonkey (canon) --> CompleteMonster CardCarryingVillain who rapes female nations for either his own benefit or just for the lulz and tortures PossessionSue!Austria endlessly (AHEW verse)

* '''Russia:''' His is an... ''interesting'' case to say the least, as fans have given him all kinds of treatments on the broad specturm on both this trope and the DracoInLeatherPants treatment. In this case, it also overlaps with DieForOurShip. As pointed out there, Russia's the most likely character to be used as a stock antagonist in many, ''many'' shipping and non-shipping fics, not so much because the fanwriters hate him (though there ''are'' some that do), but more because he's the closest thing the series has to an "evil" character and it's almost too easy to [[{{Flanderization}} crank up]] what's already there (namely, his being a StepfordSmiler, {{Yangire}} and PsychopathicManchild, and how Real Life Soviet Russia's atrocities, such as TheGulag, are no laughing matter). Suffice it to say that while he's no saint in canon, and even when Himaruya himself has pointed out that Russia is less "super-evil" and more [[ManChild "childishly cruel and not fully aware of how mean he is"]], people will [[NeverLiveItDown constantly iron out]] [[HiddenDepths every nuance]] of his character and forget about his [[DespairEventHorizon genuinely heartbreaking]] [[UsedToBeASweetKid backstory]] and [[PetTheDog his genuine affection for his]] [[FragileFlower older sister Ukraine]] to turn him into a Stalin-clone and [[MurderersAreRapists raping nutjob]] of the highest order.

** There's also a very pervasive {{fanon}} that accuses Austria of having forced Hungary to put on dresses and physically/sexually/mentally abusing her during the times she served at his mantion. First of all, it's '''never''' mentioned who exactly told Hungary to get her GirlinessUpgrade, as the strip treating the days coming right before Hungary's arrival to Austria's mansion only shows Hungary in a dress by the end but never explains who's behind the idea. Second, Austria treats Hungary with far more deference than he does with young!Italy on screen. Third, Hungary ''[[BodyguardCrush willingly]]'' [[ViolentlyProtectiveGirlfriend protects Austria]] in chronologically posterior strips and Austria [[UnderstandingBoyfriend allows her to do so]], something that a DomesticAbuser wouldn't be likely to do. Fourth, Hungary and Austria are '''still''' in excellent terms after their off-screen divorce ''and she still willingly protects him if needed''. And yet many fans '''''still''''' bend over to say that Austria the character mistreated Hungary the character, using "historical canon" as an excuse and reducing the ''very'' complex historical matters behind the Austro-Hungarian Compromise to "Austria was a mostruous and cruel rapist/wife beater and Hungary was a weak baby unable to stand up to him!"
