| 9 | |
| 10 | !!Common Tropes: |
| 11 | |
| 12 | * ArchEnemy: [[http://i.imgur.com/VkBsO8e.png All three country balls have one.]] Armenia and Azerbaijan have each other and while Russia isn't usually lumped with the trio, him and Georgia aren't too fond of each other. Azerbaijan also despises Iran (even though Iran isn't considered part of the trio). Armenia also hates Turkey as well. |
| 13 | * AscendedExtra: In a more meta sense, these three countries are pretty much ignored by internet media, but these three are pretty popular in the ''Polandball'' fandom. The rise of the "Remove Kebab" meme and the fact that Azerbaijan is Turkish has certainly contributed to their frequent appearances. |
| 14 | * CrankyNeighbor: All three view each other as this. |
| 15 | * FusionDance: The three countries did this in 1918 after the fall of Russia, becoming [[https://www.polandballwiki.com/wiki/Transcaucasiaball Transcaucasiaball]]. [[http://vignette1.wikia.nocookie.net/polandball/images/9/92/Transcaucasia.png/revision/latest?cb=20150423101850 It didn't last long]]. |
| 16 | * ForeverWar: They've been arguing since the Soviet Union fell and don't look like they're gonna be stopping soon. |
| 17 | * FreudianTrio: Armenia and Azerbaijan trade between Id and Superego DependingOnTheWriter. Georgia can be safely classified as the ego, as he is often the most neutral between the two and his comics don't usually involve talking about conflicts or tensions as a result. |
| 18 | * HeroOfAnotherStory: The eternal disputing of the Caucasus is a world of its own that doesn't get much attention nor is well known by non Caucasians, but they're just another day in the life of these three. |
| 19 | * ProtagonistCenteredMorality: When it comes to border disputes, you can bet at least one comic exists with each Caucasian country ball believing the ENTIRE REGION belongs to him. |
| 20 | * RagtagBunchOfMisfits: The Caucasus is highly culturally diverse, and among the Big Three alone we have: |
| 21 | ** Oriental Orthodox Christian Indo-European Armenia. |
| 22 | ** Secularized Shia Muslim Turkic Azerbaijan |
| 23 | ** Orthodox Christian Kartvelian Georgia. They have yet to put aside their differences and save the world, but they've all got Plucky Underdog down pat. |
| 24 | * TeethClenchedTeamwork: They don't usually get along, but their issues are a source for many entertaining Polandball comics. |
| 25 | * WeUsedToBeFriends: Downplayed as they were all a part of the nations that made up the USSR rather than being best friends out right. |
| 26 | |
| 27 | !!Abkhazia |
| 28 | |
| 29 | * AnnoyingYoungerSibling: Him and South Ossetia are this for Georgia, who has to babysit them while they demand independence. |
| 30 | * SpearCarrier: The presence of a hand on his flag is pretty much the only reason he ever appears. |
| 31 | |
| 32 | !!Armenia |
| 33 | [[quoteright:310:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/armenia.jpg]] |
| 34 | * ArchEnemy: Azerbaijan. Their war is ongoing. |
| 35 | ** '''Turkey''', although from Turkey's perspective Armenia is more of an UnknownRival. |
| 36 | * BecauseYouWereNiceToMe: Just the mere act of recognizing her genocide will earn you her friendship, even if you are a kebab like Lebanon or Syria. |
| 37 | * BerserkButton: [[http://i.imgur.com/WjbFBRU.png Denying the Armenian genocide.]] |
| 38 | ** Also, asking her to gib more of her clay, after already losing so much. |
| 39 | * BigBrotherInstinct: She's very protective of Nagorno Karabakh. |
| 40 | * ButtMonkey: Has been invaded and been a part of many Empires along with facing a genocide. |
| 41 | ** IronButtMonkey: [[http://i.imgur.com/mwZkH.png She's still standing though.]] |
| 42 | * CommonalityConnection: Recognizing the Armenian genocide or being a Kebab remover is a pretty easy way to get on Armenia's good side as can be indicated by her [[https://www.polandballwiki.com/wiki/Armeniaball friend's list in her Polandball wiki page]] |
| 43 | * DependingOnTheWriter: Her relationship with Georgia determines whether or not the maker of the comic sees the two countries as friends or enemies. |
| 44 | * MetalHead: [[http://i.imgur.com/h1mESTl.jpg She's a fan of Armenian American rock band System Of A Down]]. |
| 45 | * OddFriendship: She actually gets along well with many Muslim countries, unless they happen to be named Turkey, Azerbaijan or Pakistan. Examples include Iran, Syria, Lebanon, Iraq and Indonesia; the case with Iran is even more ironic considering both had a very violent history when Iran is still Persia, mostly due to Iran's resentment of Azerbaijan. |
| 46 | ** In an inverted case, Armenia has a love-hate relationship with Israel despite both being kebab removers, due to Israel's refusal to recognize the Armenian Genocide. |
| 47 | * SaintlyChurch: Is proud of her Christian roots and being the first nation in the world to adopt Christianity. |
| 48 | * SkewedPriorities: Loves her churches, to the point where after her second largest cityball Gyumriball was destroyed in an earthquake [[http://vignette2.wikia.nocookie.net/polandball/images/9/90/Gyumriball_Armeniaball.png/revision/latest?cb=20151124200101 her main concern was the church]]. |
| 49 | * TrademarkFavoriteFood: Lavash, a type of Armenian flat bread. Like kebab for Turkic people and vodka for Russians, it can be used as shorthand for Armenians. |
| 50 | * TraumaCongaLine: Has had a very long, very violent history. |
| 51 | * TrueCompanions: With Greece, Russia, Iran and the other "Kebab Removers" like Serbia and Romania. |
| 52 | * WouldBeRudeToSayGenocide: She's really bitter than many nations don't recognize the Armenian genocide. |
| 53 | * WhyWontYouDie: Centuries of violence and she's still kicking. |
| 54 | |
| 55 | !!Azerbaijan |
| 56 | [[quoteright:200:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/azerbaijan.jpg]] |
| 57 | * AnnoyingYoungerSibling: Like Georgia below, Azerbaijan has separatist woes of his own in the form of Nagorno-Karabakh, exacerbated because of the latter's Armenian influence. In most comics though, Nagorno-Karabakhball is portrayed as Armeniaball's younger sibling that was put under Azerbaijan's control by Soviet Unionball. |
| 58 | * ArchEnemy: Armenia. Their war is ongoing. He [[http://i.imgur.com/elSFyjV.png even gives little reminders about it]]. |
| 59 | * BerserkButton: Any time Nagorno-Karabakhball gets recognized by another entity it can lead to some rash behavior, like in [[http://vignette2.wikia.nocookie.net/polandball/images/3/33/Georgia_Recognizes_Artsakh.png/revision/latest?cb=20160303213004 this comic]]. |
| 60 | * HollywoodAtheist: Despite his Shia background, he's one of the most secular countryballs, along with Estonia. His lack of religiosity is one of his points of tension with Iran. |
| 61 | * OddFriendship: Has a pretty good relationship with Israel, to the annoyance of neighbors Iran and Turkey. |
| 62 | |
| 63 | !!Georgia |
| 64 | [[quoteright:310:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/georgia.jpg]] |
| 65 | * BerserkButton: Being mistaken for the US state of Georgia. |
| 66 | * TheEeyore: [[DownplayedTrope Downplayed]], but notably more pessimistic than Armenia and Azerbaijan, both of whom at least have regional allies willing to back them up. |
| 67 | ** Although (in comics only of course) America sometimes rushes to his aid due to his inability to tell the difference between him and the American state of Georgia. |
| 68 | * KarmaHoudini: Sorta. He doesn't have a reputation as TheDreaded despite him being in charge of Sovietball during the violent Stalin era, with most of that periods atrocities being blamed on Russia. (It helps his case that the nature of Sovietball is DependingOnTheWriter and Stalin in RealLife was a Russophile.) |
| 69 | * NamedAfterSomebodyFamous: Kind of. Georgia is an exonym which is partly attributed to the nation's particular reverence for St. George, called "Tetri Giorgi" in Georgian. |
| 70 | * RetiredMonster: If comics portray him as the one controlling Sovietball during the Stalin era, he will be this. |
| 71 | * SignificantNameOverlap: With the similarly-named US stateball Georgia. He does not like it when you get them confused. |
| 72 | * TeamSwitzerland: Is neutral to Armenia and Azerbaijan's conflict. Could be summed up with this [[https://scontent-a-ord.xx.fbcdn.net/hphotos-xfp1/v/t1.0-9/s720x720/10489875_666819343412890_6122339002556747989_n.png?oh=d202e1b36cdce6282b75fb96f21986b7&oe=54FA8FD8 picture]]. |
| 73 | * TrademarkFavoriteFood: Is often associated with khachapuri, a dish similar to pizza usually topped with melted cheese and eggs. |
| 74 | |
| 75 | !! Nagorno-Karabakh/Artsakh |
| 76 | * DependingOnTheWriter: As an unrecognized country he may just be replaced by Armenia in some comics (and as a side note, most of Armenia's tropes also apply to him). And since he's a BerserkButton for Azerbaijan, his characterization will differ widely depending on which side of the conflict the writer takes. |
| 77 | * IHaveManyNames: Calls himself Artsakh (in February 2017 he officially changed his name to this), but will sometimes still go by the Russian-Turkish name Nagorno-Karabakh and most others still call him this. |
| 78 | * InsistentTerminology: Argues often with Azerbaijan over the names of his cityballs. |
| 79 | * TrademarkFavoriteFood: Jingyalov Hats, a special herbed flatbread that originates from the region. |
| 80 | |
| 81 | !South Ossestia |
| 82 | * AnnoyingYoungerSibling: Like his brother Abkhazia, Georgia have to babysit them while they demand for independence. |
| 83 | [[/folder]] |
| 84 | |
| 85 | [[folder: Nations of Central Asia]] |
| 86 | |
| 87 | !!Common Tropes: |
| 88 | |
| 89 | * CommonalityConnection: They all have a name that end with -stan. |
| 90 | * OutOfFocus: Kazakhstan is the only one who appears somewhat regularly. |
| 91 | |
| 92 | !!Afghanistan |
| 93 | [[quoteright:200:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/afghanistan.png]] |
| 94 | * AnnoyingYoungerSibling: To both Pakistan and Iran (moreso to Pakistan), who often have to take in his refugees. They still generally get along though. |
| 95 | * GenkiGuy: He is mostly seen happy and smiling in comics that feature him, which is pretty impressive considering his problems. |
| 96 | * ThePollyanna: Has had a lot of problems with terrorists, but tries to keep up with it and be optimistic for the future, and even maintains positive relations with both US and Russia. |
| 97 | * [[WarRefugees War Refugee]]: Like Libya and Syria, he is the other go-to poster boy for this trope in-universe. |
| 98 | |
| 99 | !!Kazakhstan |
| 100 | [[quoteright:275:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/kazakhstan.png]] |
| 101 | [[caption-width-right:275:Don't let his size fool you-- he is a GentleGiant. Unless you mention Borat around him.]] |
| 102 | * BerserkButton: {{Film/Borat}}, to the point of hating the UK for making it. He also has a bit of a hassle with Kuwait thanks to the latter playing the Borat anthem in the Olympics. |
| 103 | * BizarreAlienLocomotion: While not alien, Kazahkstan's locomotion is unique in the setting - unlike Reichtangle, who is of a comparable shape (albeit vertical), Kazahkstan is often portrayed as unable to move of his own power and uses the other central Asians as wheels. |
| 104 | * CaptainErsatz: Sometimes acts like the Polandball's version of Borat. However, don't mention [[BerserkButton that movie]] around him. |
| 105 | * GentleGiant: Is often drawn as bigger than his fellow countryballs but seems to be rather nonviolent (which is rather remarkable given the disposition of [[AxCrazy most Polandball nations]]). Unless you count [[ColonyDrop being dropped onto them]] as murder. |
| 106 | * NonstandardCharacterDesign: Is shaped like a brick. |
| 107 | ** This makes him the only one unafraid of Reichtangle. |
| 108 | * OnlySaneMan: He's probably the most normal out of all the -stan countryballs, being surprisingly developed and far more democratic than the others since the stepping down of Nazarbayev. |
| 109 | |
| 110 | %%!!Kyrgyzstan |
| 111 | |
| 112 | !!Tajikistan |
| 113 | * OutOfFocus: Even more so than any of the other Central Asians; he probably shows up the absolute least. |
| 114 | |
| 115 | !!Turkmenistan |
| 116 | [[quoteright:261:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/turkmenistan.png]] |
| 117 | * {{Cloudcuckoolander}}: Saparmurat Niyazov's presidency left him a bit... off. |
| 118 | * GenkiGuy: In the few comics he's been in, he's quite energetic, bordering on manic. |
| 119 | * SmallNameBigEgo: Often compared to North Korea. |
| 120 | * RunningGag: The incredible details of his flag gets brought up often. |
| 121 | * TeamSwitzerland: He is a very neutral country, and he can be pretty much called as the Switzerland of Central Asia. |
| 122 | * TrademarkFavoriteFood: Loves melons. Sometimes, this love can get pretty crazy. |
| 123 | |
| 124 | !!Uzbekistan |
| 125 | * DreamCrushingHandicap: Wants access to sea. Is a ''doubly'' landlocked country. |
| 126 | * YankTheDogsChain: His only access to water is the Aral Sea. But since ''that'' 's shrinking... |
| 127 | |
| 128 | [[/folder]] |
| 129 | |
| 130 | [[folder: Nations of East Asia]] |
| 131 | |
| 132 | !!Common Tropes: |
| 133 | * EyesAlwaysShut: Most Polandball artists depict "Asian eyes" this way. |
| 134 | * JapaneseRanguage: Asian-accented Engrish is often written this way. |
| 135 | |
| 136 | !!China |
| 137 | [[quoteright:228:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/img_3660.PNG]] |
| 138 | * AbusiveParents: Suffice to say, he is not a really good father to Hong Kong and Macau. |
| 139 | * ArchEnemy: His feud with Japan crops up from time to time. |
| 140 | * BigBrotherBully: Constantly scheming to get Taiwan back. |
| 141 | * DirtyCommunists: Which is why he has such a strong relationship with Russia. |
| 142 | * FriendlyRivalry: With the United States. They get along pretty well though, much more so than the USA and Russia do with each other. |
| 143 | * GoodSmokingEvilSmoking: Cares absolutely nothing about how much smoke he belches into the atmosphere. |
| 144 | ** HeelRealization: Recent portrayals, however, show that he has since realised what his actions have done. |
| 145 | * {{Jerkass}}: If you need any proof, [[http://polandball.cc/wp-content/uploads/2014/10/InHubkT-600x1132.png here's how he treats his political opposition]]. |
| 146 | * KarmaHoudini: While America and Russia often have their unscrupulous projects blow up in their face, China usually gets away with it. Probably because he doesn't commit to them as much as the other two. |
| 147 | * KnowWhenToFoldEm: As mentioned above, China isn't as committed to his endeavors as Russia or the USA. He even gave up communism when it was clear it wasn't working. |
| 148 | * LargeAndInCharge: Like America and Russia, he's considerably bigger than the other countries. |
| 149 | * OnlyFriend: For Russia, due to their similar personalities. |
| 150 | * SignatureLaugh: "xixixixixi". |
| 151 | * {{Workaholic}}: On par with [[GermanicEfficiency Germany]]. |
| 152 | |
| 153 | !!Japan |
| 154 | [[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/img_3661.PNG]] |
| 155 | * [[AccessoryWearingCartoonAnimal Accessory Wearing Countryball]]: He tends to either carry anime paraphernalia or a katana. |
| 156 | * AnimeLand: His main [[NationalStereotypes ethnic stereotype]]. |
| 157 | * ArchEnemy: His historical enmity with China might sometimes pop up. |
| 158 | * AsianAndNerdy: 'Natch. He is very focused into education, and tends to be an {{Otaku}}. |
| 159 | * BewareTheNiceOnes: He might be polite and well-mannered, but it's best to keep in mind that he used to be TheDreaded imperial power who manages to take over most of Eastern Asia. |
| 160 | * BunnyEarsLawyer: Another common characterization. Although his quirkiness sometimes gets the best of him, it is still one of Asia's richest and most powerful countries even long after his Imperial days. |
| 161 | * TheDreaded: He still makes Southeast Asia uneasy. |
| 162 | * LovableSexManiac: While the "lovable" part varies, he's definitely one of the horniest countries, with a particular fondness for the weirder forms of hentai. |
| 163 | * NiceGuy: One of the most polite and honorable countries in the Polandball universe. |
| 164 | * NuclearMutant: Sometimes shown to have mutations after the USA's nuclear bombardment in WWII. |
| 165 | * {{Otaku}}: His most common characterisation in the modern era. |
| 166 | * ProudWarriorRaceGuy: It's taking the backseat at the moment, though. |
| 167 | * RetiredBadass: He scored several victories over superpowers before running into America, repeatedly defeating Mongolia, Russia, and China. Now, he's more known for anime and porn. |
| 168 | * RetiredMonster: Unlike Germany, he has not become TheAtoner for his World War 2 crimes (a RunningGag is him denying the Nanking Massacre ever happened), but ever since the US beat the hell out of him, he's more or less harmless. |
| 169 | * TheSmartGuy: Very intelligent, and has contributed into world's most-known technologies. |
| 170 | * SuperpoweredEvilSide: WWII!Japan, scary enough to drive back China and Russia, and tangle (briefly) with the US. |
| 171 | * TookALevelInKindness: Exaggerated. His Imperial self was a depraved, racist, sociopathic piece of work whose sadism [[EvenEvilHasStandards terrified even Nazi Germany.]] Since his defeat in WWII he's become a full-on NiceGuy. |
| 172 | |
| 173 | !!Mongolia |
| 174 | [[quoteright:310:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/mongolia.png]] |
| 175 | * AxCrazy: In the past, and sometimes in present-day portrayals as well. |
| 176 | * TheDreaded: His glory days may be past, but many of his old acquaintances still harbour a lingering fear of him. |
| 177 | * DefeatMeansFriendship: With Japan. Although Mongolia tries to anschluss him in the past, he is nowadays pretty friendly with Japan. |
| 178 | * GloryDays: He is clearly not happy with his current lot and wishes to go back to the old empire. |
| 179 | * KryptoniteFactor: Water. Japan and Vietnam both defeated him easily in his first invasions because they had a sea and a river respectively separating them from the Mongol Empire, with those invasions being represented in Polandball as Mongolia jumping into the water and nearly drowning. He managed to cross those bodies successfully in his second attempts, leaving Vietnam and Japan to beat him back the old fashioned way. |
| 180 | * MyGreatestFailure: He's sometimes shown as obsessively bitter about his failures to conquer Japan and Vietnam. |
| 181 | * RichesToRags: Once the uncontested most powerful empire on Earth, now unhappily underdeveloped and stuck between two neighbors who hate him. |
| 182 | |
| 183 | !!North Korea |
| 184 | [[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/img_3662.JPG]] |
| 185 | * BasementDweller: Sometimes shown as living in China's basement and never going outside. |
| 186 | * TheFriendNobodyLikes: Even among theoretical allies like China, nobody can stand him. |
| 187 | * HairTriggerTemper: Tends to go into a rage and threaten other countries at the slightest provocation. |
| 188 | * IneffectualSympatheticVillain: [[http://vignette1.wikia.nocookie.net/polandball/images/9/9c/North_Korean_Missiles_are_of_Best_Missiles.png/revision/20141017124037 He is such a failure]] [[http://65.media.tumblr.com/153ce51c25942ee443e458132cc5f988/tumblr_mti5gzyWaj1szo7eyo1_1280.jpg at executing evil plots]], it's hard not to feel sorry for him. |
| 189 | * MotorMouth: Tends to communicate in massive [[WallOfText walls of text]]. |
| 190 | * TheNapoleon: He's usually drawn as smaller than most of the other countryballs, and is especially tiny compared to the USA and China, who constantly share comics with him. |
| 191 | * ObfuscatingStupidity: [[http://i.imgur.com/DWm77Tb.png This comic]] portrays him as an EvilGenius who deflects attention from his human rights abuses by pretending to throw a fit over minor things. |
| 192 | * SmallNameBigEgo: He considers himself the most important and awesome thing on Earth, but most other countries won't even notice him. |
| 193 | * SmugSnake: A megalomaniac whose country is barely holding together, but don't tell him that. |
| 194 | |
| 195 | !!South Korea |
| 196 | [[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/south_korea.png]] |
| 197 | * AsianAndNerdy: Obsessively plays ''Videogame/{{Starcraft}}'' and takes education very seriously. |
| 198 | ** This mentality is deconstructed in [[http://i.imgur.com/s3H5LqW.png this comic]] showing the immense pressure South Korean youth face in their highly demanding education system. |
| 199 | * AwLookTheyReallyDoLoveEachOther: As seen in [[http://i.imgur.com/xArcImz.png this comic]], he and Japan might fight each other a lot, but in reality... |
| 200 | * BerserkButton: As much as it horrifies him, ''[[http://i.imgur.com/tas6MY4.png never]]'' threaten to rape him in front of his face. |
| 201 | * BrokenAce: Very intelligent, talented, takes education very seriously and invented a number of well-known products in the world. He also withstood enormous pressure due to said dedication to education (see the AsianAndNerdy entry above) and has had a notably [[DarkAndTroubledPast traumatic]] [[RapeAsBackstory history]], and is still often affected by it. |
| 202 | * CainAndAbel: The Abel to North Korea's Cain. |
| 203 | * RapeAsBackstory: Occasionally, mention is made of how Japan [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comfort_women raped Fem!Korea]]. |
| 204 | * SiblingYinYang: Capitalist, modern, and reasonably happy and well-adjusted, as opposed to the psychotic, militaristic and communist North Korea. |
| 205 | * TertiarySexualCharacteristics: When portrayed as female, sometimes the [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/I_Ching#Trigrams trigrams]] on her flag are positioned to look like eyelashes (getting around ''Polandball'''s prohibition on eyelashes and other facial features). |
| 206 | * TrademarkFavoriteFood: Kimchi - that is fermented, salted and spiced vegetables. Much like with other countries, he might sometimes get called as such. |
| 207 | * VitriolicBestBuds: A common portrayal of his relationship with Japan. South Korea doesn't have the best opinion of him due to Japan abusing him back during his imperial days. However, they are somewhat getting along fine nowadays asides from a lot of arguments, and it helps that they both hate [[AxCrazy North Korea]] and they are both among US' closest allies. |
| 208 | * [[WhyDidItHaveToBeSnakes Why Did It Have To Be Fans?]]: Despite living surrounded by formerly or currently imperialist countries, his biggest fear is [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fan_death fan death]]. |
| 209 | |
| 210 | !!Taiwan/Republic of China |
| 211 | [[quoteright:225:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/taiwan.png]] |
| 212 | * ArchEnemy: China, obviously. |
| 213 | * BerserkButton: Being confused for China. |
| 214 | * PintSizedPowerhouse: Smaller than most countries, especially when compared to China. Has a comparatively higher HDI and standards of living than China himself. |
| 215 | * SmallNameBigEgo: While by no means a megalomaniac, Taiwan occasionally behaves as if he is still in control of the entire territory of China. |
| 216 | * TrademarkFavoriteFood: Is often associated with boba/bubble tea. |
| 217 | * TheWrongfulHeirToTheThrone: Competes with China for the legacy of the old Republic. |

| 223 | !!Bangladesh |
| 224 | [[quoteright:155:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/bangladesh.png]] |
| 225 | * IdenticalStranger: Often called 'sick Japan' due to his flag having similar designs with him, with the only difference in the background color. He is not happy about it. |
| 226 | * OverpopulationCrisis: His main problem, which is frequently the main topic in comics featuring him. |
| 227 | * RunningGag: His population density and him being constantly flooded gets brought up often. |
| 228 | * VitriolicBestBuds: His current relationship with Pakistan. |
| 229 | ** Also with India. They have a love-hate relationship going on. |
| 230 | * WeUsedToBeFriends: He used to be a part of Pakistan before he seceded. Nowadays, they have made amends with each other although they still argue at times. |
| 231 | |

| 233 | |
| 234 | !!India |
| 235 | [[quoteright:303:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/india.png]] |
| 236 | * AntagonisticOffspring: To the United Kingdom in the past. They get a long ''much'' better than they used to. |
| 237 | * ArchEnemy: '''''Pakistan.''''' The two have hated each other since their independence, and have almost always taken opposite sides in world issues just to spite each other. And the less said about Kashmir, the better. |
| 238 | * BerserkButton: Making [[http://i.imgur.com/qkfzk5O.png mom jokes]] in front of him is a ''bad'' idea. |
| 239 | * BlackComedyRape: Usually only alluded to. |
| 240 | * BollywoodNerd: If a country phones tech support, expect India to be the one who takes the call. |
| 241 | ** He's also immensely proud of his space program. |
| 242 | * InnocentlyInsensitive: He's not an anti-semite, but doesn't quite understand the objection to [[http://www.thedailybeast.com/articles/2015/06/12/hitler-ice-cream-is-not-exactly-what-you-think.html: Hitler Ice-Cream]]. |
| 243 | * LargeAndInCharge: He's a huge country with the second-highest population in the world, so he's sometimes drawn much bigger than his neighbors. This tends to be averted whenever he goes head-to-head with Pakistan, as they're usually drawn the same size. |
| 244 | * NiceGuy: Surprisingly, despite him appearing serious or disenchanted most of the time. When he is not disputing about Kashmir with China and Pakistan, he is generally a very friendly guy, and will readily help his friends in need. He even supports both Israel and Palestine, both of who see each other as [[ArchEnemy their worst nemesis]]. |
| 245 | * TheRival: To Pakistan and China. The latter becomes FriendlyRivalry when they are in BRICS. |
| 246 | * ToiletHumor: Almost literally. His problems with lack of toilets [[https://i.redd.it/h2c7ndy4hhmx.png often gets]] [[https://i.imgur.com/B3QFWqV.png brought up]]. |

| 255 | * CatchPhrase: KUKRI KILL! |
| 256 | * EloquentInMyNativeTongue: He's quite well-spoken, but all the other countries hear are growls and roars. |
| 257 | * FaceOfAThug: Don't let his monstrous appearance fool you; in fact, he is anything but monstrous, and is very polite to his friends. Subverted whenever he gets into his crazy side. |
| 258 | * MoreTeethThanTheOsmondFamily |
| 259 | * NiceGuy: Is this in general, in contrast to his monstrous appearance. |

| 265 | * BerserkButton: He is a devout Islam follower, and insulting it in front of him is a bad idea. |
| 266 | * BewareTheNiceOnes: He is a pretty average and chill guy in general, but he has a quite short fuse and it is worse if you insult Islam in front of him. |
| 267 | * GaiasLament: His issues with extreme air pollution are sometimes discussed in his comics. |
| 268 | * HairTriggerTemper: It doesn't take much to anger him. |
| 269 | * WeUsedToBeFriends: His relationship with Bangladesh. They're in a better place than they had been, but the whole secession thing is still a bit of a raw subject. |
| 270 | * VitriolicBestBuds: With Afghanistan, who often annoys him with terrorists-- but Pakistan still tries to take care of him and willingly hosts his refugees. |

| 276 | [[folder: Nations of Southeast Asia]] |
| 277 | |
| 278 | !!Common Tropes: |
| 279 | * BreakoutCharacter: While Polandball is still skewed towards comics about European countries, the Southeast Asian countryballs enjoy considerable popularity. In particular, comics starring Indonesia, Singapore, and Philippines are about as common as any concerning the Euros. [[https://old.reddit.com/r/polandball/comments/2a1gsa/asean_asks_eu_for_advice/ It helps that the dynamics between ASEAN are pretty similar to what goes on in the EU. ]] |
| 280 | * EnemyMine: While they're all prone to fighting each other, they will certainly team up against China. |
| 281 | * TransAtlanticEquivalent: If ASEAN itself is a character, the adventures surrounding it and the other South East Asian nations are the equivalents of whatever is going on in the EU. |
| 282 | * WeAreStrugglingTogether: Most of these countryballs are very concerned about Chinese territorial ambitions, but they're generally too busy arguing about their ''own'' territorial ambitions to do anything about it. The Spratly Islands dispute is a good example. |
| 283 | |
| 284 | !!Brunei |
| 285 | [[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/bruneiball23apr.png]] |
| 286 | * BigGuyLittleGuy: When portrayed with Malaysia in a regional/ASEAN context. |
| 287 | * BirdsOfAFeather: With Singapore, despite their contrasting stances towards religion. Both are [[PintSizedPowerhouse rich despite their tiny size]] and are close into being best friends. |
| 288 | * ConspicuousConsumption: Buys lots of fancy things with his oil money. |
| 289 | * RagsToRiches: [[http://i.imgur.com/4UtRCmN.png Seen in this comic]], he was pretty average before oil was found in his clay. |
| 290 | * PintSizedPowerhouse: He may be tiny, but he's a regional oil magnate with the second-highest standard of living in the region behind Singapore. |
| 291 | * LovesOnlyGold: He is so interested in his oil that he is cautious of people stealing it. |
| 292 | |
| 293 | !!Cambodia |
| 294 | [[quoteright:300:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/cambodiaball23apr.png]] |
| 295 | * AxCrazy: Is this during his days as Democratic Kampuchea/Khmer Rouge. |
| 296 | * DarkAndTroubledPast: All the former French Indochina countries have had a rough past of their own, but Cambodia deserves a special mention. [[http://i.imgur.com/T6DllP5.png This comic]] says a lot about it. |
| 297 | * GloryDays: He is often nostalgic about his Khmer Empire days, which reflects in the Angkor temple on his various flags. |
| 298 | * IHatePastMe: And ''how.'' His hatred towards his Khmer Rouge self is on par with Germany's hatred towards Nazi Germany. |
| 299 | * NotHelpingYourCase: [[https://i.imgur.com/93Q3Vup.png His attempts of recovery]] does not go too well, to say at least. |
| 300 | * TheRival: To Thailand, ArchEnemy in the past. |
| 301 | * VitriolicBestBuds: With Vietnam. While Cambodia is still thankful towards him for removing Khmer Rouge, they often argue with each other. |
| 302 | |
| 303 | !!Indonesia |

| 305 | [[caption-width-right:350:''Do not'' call him Poland. You will regret it.]] |
| 306 | * AntagonisticOffspring: Was ''very'' rebellious to Netherlands in the past. They are getting along fine in the present though. |
| 307 | * BerserkButton: While he is [[HairTriggerTemper quick to anger]] in general, mistaking him for Poland and communism are his biggest ones. Also, due to his rough past with them, he also despises separatists, as seen from him not recognizing Kosovo. |
| 308 | * BigBrotherBully: He is this to Malaysia and Singapore, ''especially'' the former. Not to mention he likes [[{{Pyromaniac}} burning jungles]] to piss them off. |
| 309 | ** CoolBigBro: On the other hand, he is this towards Brunei, as he is less likely to bully him than he could towards Malaysia and Singapore, and they get along pretty well. |
| 310 | * CulturalPosturing: Believes that his culture is superior to Malaysia's and that the latter is stealing parts of it. |
| 311 | * {{Foil}}: To Brazil. See Brazil's entry for more details. |
| 312 | * FriendlyEnemy: With Malaysia. They often hassle with and treat each other with hostility, but they still consider each other brothers, and they can get along really well if they wanted to. |
| 313 | * GoodSmokingEvilSmoking: Can be a real piece of work sometimes, and a lot of comics featuring him show him smoking a cigarette. |
| 314 | * HairTriggerTemper: It doesn't take much to annoy or piss him off. |
| 315 | * {{Hypocrite}}: His [[http://i.imgur.com/KsEERWz.png claims to be against anschlussing others' clay (since it is identified with colonialism)]] is contrasted with the fact that he tried to take back East Timor. Not to mention [[http://i.imgur.com/rWfIL8i.png he had tried anschlussing his neighbors' clay and some of his present-day islands]] back during several years after he got independent (with varying results). |
| 316 | ** Is also appalled at Netherlands' tendencies to smoke weed, but he himself smokes a lot in many of his appearances. |
| 317 | * IdenticalStranger: With Poland and Monaco-- he is often mistaken for the former, which he is not a fan of. |
| 318 | * ImprobableWeaponUser: Used sharpened bamboo sticks to kill Netherlands once. |
| 319 | * InferioritySuperiorityComplex: He is proud of his successful democracy, diverse culture, heritage and the way he got his independence, and will not waste any time to brag about it to other countries, and likes acting as if he is superior to them. But at the same time [[http://i.imgur.com/DtrqVs6.png he is also painfully aware that he is not quite there yet]] with [[https://i.imgur.com/NF4rVBZ.jpg a lot of problems]] [[http://i.imgur.com/HKIrFp7.png still prevalent]] in his country. |
| 320 | * {{Jerkass}}: He can come off as arrogant, overly proud and condescending to his fellow nations, and finding comics where he is not being annoyed/angry over something or bullying his neighbors (and sometimes even other countries) can be a bit of a challenge. |
| 321 | ** JerkWithAHeartOfGold: His more sympathetic portrayals show him leaning towards this. Also in general, when he is not being overly proud about himself, he is a pretty friendly guy and can be friends with almost everyone-- import good products to him, or have even a little but significant similarity to him, you are his friend. Also see VitriolicBestBuds below. |
| 322 | * LargeAndInCharge: By population, landmass, and influence he's the biggest player in SE Asia, and is sometimes drawn larger accordingly. The ASEAN headquarters is also located in Indonesia. |
| 323 | * NosyNeighbour: Is one with regards to East Timor. He seems to be very interested in taking over his clay. |
| 324 | * {{Pyromaniac}}: The first time it happened, it was an accident. Now, it seems that burning jungles has become something of a hobby, especially when it pisses off his neighbours. |
| 325 | * RetiredBadass: Was really powerful as the Majapahit Empire. |
| 326 | * SignatureLaugh: His laughter is occasionally rendered as "wkwkwkwkwkwk" in text. |
| 327 | * TakeAThirdOption: Back during the Cold War, he was one of the founding members of the Non-Aligned Movement, rejecting both Communist and Western influences. |
| 328 | ** This trait still prevails in him these days. He has [[https://www.polandballwiki.com/wiki/Indonesiaball pretty amicable relationships with both the West and the East]]. |
| 329 | * TrademarkFavoriteFood: Loves Indomie and satay. |
| 330 | * VitriolicBestBuds: He is this to any of his friends really-- he loves teasing and bullying them, but still cares about them and considers them his friends. |

| 332 | !!Laos |
| 333 | [[quoteright:271:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/laos.png]] |
| 334 | * DarkAndTroubledPast: Like Vietnam and Cambodia, his history also involved a lot of bombs, war and deaths. |
| 335 | * HeterosexualLifePartners: With Thailand, as they share extremely similar cultures as well as mutually intelligible languages. To make a comparison, Laos is the Canada to Thailand's United States. |
| 336 | * NonstandardCharacterDesign: Much like Ethiopia, is often depicted as an emaciated countryball due to its history of starvation. |
| 337 | * NiceGuy: Along with Vietnam, he is one of the last remaining communist countries that doesn't get the same levels of bad rap from other countries. He [[https://www.polandballwiki.com/wiki/Laosball tries his best to treat his neighbors with respect]], while the others are more prone to get into spats with each other. He is even able to befriend China and North Korea of all people. |
| 338 | * OnlySaneMan: He is one of the Southeast Asian countries who does not get into arguments with his neighbors regularly due to his neutral foreign policy, and apart from a few problems in his country, he is doing rather well for himself. |
| 339 | * OutOfFocus: Appears the least out of all Southeast Asian nations. |
| 340 | * TeamSwitzerland: Known for his very neutral stances against everyone. |
| 341 | * ThoseTwoGuys: Sometimes has this dynamic with Vietnam, due to their shared communist views. |
| 342 | * VitriolicBestBuds: With Thailand. He hates him a bit, but they regularly get along with each other. |
| 343 | |
| 344 | !!Malaysia |
| 345 | [[quoteright:265:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/malaysia.png]] |

| 347 | * BigBrotherBully: To Brunei and Singapore at first, before RagsToRiches happened to both of them. |
| 348 | * BornUnlucky: [[OnceDoneNeverForgotten When it comes to airplanes.]] [[http://i.imgur.com/PWMiXVk.png Summed here.]] |
| 349 | ** [[http://i.imgur.com/LAw8rWi.png This comic says it well too lah.]] |
| 350 | * BreakTheHaughty: Is often portrayed as an arrogant know-it-all, and [[http://i.imgur.com/4oZ4rJ3.png just as]] [[http://i.imgur.com/aZzohV9.png many comics]] portray him being humiliated. Double points if Singapore is the one who takes the job of this trope. |
| 351 | * LazyBum: Prefers to relax rather than do work. He even has a special word for this-"lepak". |
| 352 | * MasterRace: His affirmative action program for Malays written into [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Article_153_of_the_Constitution_of_Malaysia the constitution]] was one of the main reasons for booting Singapore, who is mostly ethnic Chinese. Bumiputera stronk! |
| 353 | * {{Pride}}: Often portrayed as being very proud of himself, to the point where it borders outright haughtiness. |
| 354 | * SiblingYinYang: He is noticeably more reserved and obedient to his father UK compared to his brother Indonesia, who is more hot-blooded and is very rebellious to his father Netherlands. Is it a wonder why they constantly fight with each other? |
| 355 | * TrademarkFavoriteFood: Usually associated with nasi lemak. Laksa, chicken rice, satay, and rendang are also another few of his favorites, and naturally, the latter two draw countless accusations of culture stealing from Indonesia. |
| 356 | * VerbalTic: Malaysian and Singaporean authors like to season his speech with [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Manglish Manglish]]. Can lah! |
| 357 | * VitriolicBestBuds: With Singapore. For a state he'd kicked out about half a century ago, the two have interacted with each other rather...[[http://i.imgur.com/TAci3QP.png amicably]] relative to other nations in similar situations. They also tend to share a [[http://i.imgur.com/KZCr8V6.png greater resentment of Indonesia]]. |

| 359 | !!Myanmar |
| 360 | [[quoteright:270:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/myanmar_9.png]] |
| 361 | * AccidentalMisnaming: Does this to ''himself''. He can never remember his current name and often calls himself by his previous name, Burma. Sometimes he'll mix up the two and calls himself "Burmyanmar". |
| 362 | * ArmorPiercingQuestion: [[http://i.imgur.com/FPRXpRK.png Who am I?]] |
| 363 | * AxCrazy: Recently he is an Asian version of Serbia, since he is currently removing Rohingya people. Also count as rare Buddhist TheFundamentalist. |
| 364 | * TheFriendNobodyLikes: The rest of the ASEAN gang gives him the cold shoulder ever since the 2021 coup. |
| 365 | * IdenticalStranger: With Taiwan during the use of his old flag. His current flag makes him identical with Lithuania. |
| 366 | * OddFriendship: Like Serbia, he has one with Indonesia, who is mostly Muslim. It is rather one-sided though, considering Indonesia views him as an enemy due to what he did. |
| 367 | * TheRival: To Thailand, ArchEnemy in the past. |
| 368 | * SplitPersonality: Due to separatists. |
| 369 | |
| 370 | !!Philippines |
| 371 | [[quoteright:310:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/philippines.png]] |
| 372 | [[caption-width-right:310:Just another normal day for him.]] |
| 373 | * ArchEnemy: China. His hatred mainly stems from the conflict over Spratly Islands. Their relationship has somewhat gotten better since Rodrigo Duterte's presidency, but it's still present. |
| 374 | * AxCrazy: Whenever he gets fixated on removing drugs, he can get very violent. |
| 375 | * BlackSheep: A running gag is that, despite his rock-solid multi-ethnically Asian background, the rest of SE Asia refuses to acknowledge him as Asian since Spain (and America) ruled him, and [[http://i.imgur.com/dIGtXPM.png this comic]] is just one of those that have shown him being mistreated by other SEA countries. |
| 376 | * DaddysGirl: Obviously if the Philippines in some comics is a girl. Usually is this to her [[EagleLand adopted father]]. |
| 377 | ** With how close he is with his adopted father, the Philippines weaponized his father's PapaWolf tendencies in which he threatens his rivals with just a [[https://www.reddit.com/r/polandball/comments/8vtah1/the_south_china_sea/?utm_source=amp&utm_medium=&utm_content=comments_view_all phone]] call away. |
| 378 | * DarkAndTroubledPast: His whole childhood and being invaded by Japan doesn't give a reason to smile at. He is also hinted [[http://i.imgur.com/e5tF9Ik.png to have suffered from amnesia]], a reason why he can't recall his Malay roots is due to extensive abuse. |
| 379 | * DrugsAreBad: Even more so than Singapore recently, also his BerserkButton. As seen in [[http://i.imgur.com/7EGMBtB.png this]] comic. |
| 380 | * EnemyMine: As reflective of RealLife, both the Philippines and Vietnam are allies in [[http://i.imgur.com/YkJaxU1.png standing up against China.]] |
| 381 | * EthnicMenialLabor: Sometimes depicted as this. He didn't earn his nickname 'Maidland' for nothing. |
| 382 | * ExpressiveShirt: The Philippines has a unique quirk: His colors actually invert (the red and blue of his flag switch places so that the former is over the latter) when he feels anger or aggression. This is to reflect that raising the Philippine flag upside down is an indication that the country is in a state of war. |
| 383 | * ForeignCussWord: "Tangina!", a corruption of "putang ina!" ("son of a bitch!"). He also uses "puta" due to his Spanish heritage. |
| 384 | * HappilyAdopted: He absolutely ''idolizes'' his adoptive father, The US. His actual (Birth? Colonialization?) father Spain is rather venomously referred to as a 'puto'. |
| 385 | * HostileWeather: Experiences it in [[http://i.imgur.com/zLFcy80.png this]] comic. |
| 386 | ** ''Weaponizes it'' [[http://imgur.com/sWZ4mEB here]] but he [[PowerIncontinence can't make it stop.]] |
| 387 | * InsistentTerminology: China does NOT have any sea. It is called the West ''Philippine'' Sea! |
| 388 | * MistakenForRacist: He was liberated by a group called the Kataastaasan Kagalang-galang Katipunan nang mga Anak nang Bayan, which is abbreviated as KKK. Unfortunately for him, some countries confuse that with the US white supremacist organization of the same acronym. |
| 389 | * MotorMouth: Talks a lot whenever he becomes excited. |
| 390 | * NiceGuy/[[GenkiGirl Genki Guy]]: He is generally very cheerful, jovial and hospitable to other countries. |
| 391 | ** BewareTheNiceOnes: Except when you piss him off or [[DrugsAreBad a certain]] BerserkButton of his is pressed. |
| 392 | * ThePollyanna: He's had a ''very'' hard life, but maintains a positive attitude and has high hopes for the future. |
| 393 | ** [[StepfordSmiler "None is left in me but happy, so I op havings no choice but to be happy...]][[http://i.imgur.com/liHtTKp.png HAPPY...FOREVER..."]] |
| 394 | * VerbalTic: Is incapable of producing the /f/ and /v/ sound and thus uses /p/ and /b/ respectively wherever the sounds are required. |
| 395 | * WellDoneSonGuy: He really wants his papa the US to be proud of him and he wants to be like him as well. |
| 396 | |
| 397 | !!Singapore |
| 398 | [[quoteright:310:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/tringapore.png]] |
| 399 | [[caption-width-right:310:Can into ball? No. Can into rich economic power? Yes, lah!]] |
| 400 | * AsianAndNerdy: Appears to be very smart and focused on education. |
| 401 | * CunningLinguist: He speaks a ''lot'' of languages, and is notably fluent in both English and Mandarin. Because of this, some English-language comics will actually have him speaking standard English instead of Polandball-speak or Singlish. |
| 402 | * [[DoesNotLikeSpam Does Not Like Gum]]: Referencing the import ban. Doubles as a BerserkButton. |
| 403 | * DrugsAreBad: His attitude towards them. |
| 404 | * FoolishSiblingResponsibleSibling: In a sense, he is the responsible to both Indonesia and Malaysia's foolish, as he is less likely to mess up with situations and works harder than the two combined. |
| 405 | * FounderOfTheKingdom: [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lee_Kuan_Yew Lee Kuan Yew]] fits most requirements apart from being official royalty. Sometimes Tringapore will actually swear by the former Prime Minister's family name (as in, "Oh my Lee!" or "Lee damn it!"). |
| 406 | * ImpaledWithExtremePrejudice: That triangular shape comes in handy against circular enemies. |
| 407 | * TheNapoleon: Don't let his size fool you; he's got a hell of a temper and the economic power to back it up. |
| 408 | * NonstandardCharacterDesign: Appears in the shape of an isosceles triangle. |
| 409 | * OddFriendship: He has a sizable Muslim population in his clay, but he has a pretty good relationship with Israel. It is a bold move considering he is sandwiched between his anti-Israel neighbours. |
| 410 | * OnlySaneMan: Often gets caught between Malaysia and Indonesia's rivalry, and when he feels like it, he calls out on them both. |
| 411 | * SmugSnake: [[JerkWithAHeartOfGold Although he does have his good side]], he can be really arrogant and haughty at times. |
| 412 | * RagsToRiches: He used to be a poor region/country when he was under both British and Malaysian rule. However, ever since his separation with Malaysia, he has turned into a ridiculously wealthy first-world country. |
| 413 | * ATasteOfTheLash: Threatens to cane other countries for smuggling drugs or bubblegum into his country. |
| 414 | * ThickerThanWater: His relationship with cousin China is an aversion. They get along fairly well, but Singapore doesn't feel more loyal to China than any of his other trading partners. |
| 415 | * TrademarkFavoriteFood: Chilli crab. |
| 416 | * VerbalTic: "[[BlatantLies I don't have verbal tic]], [[HypocriticalHumour lah!]]" |
| 417 | * VitriolicBestBuds: Unsurprisingly, with Malaysia. |
| 418 | * {{Workaholic}}: Obviously, in contrast to Malaysia. [[http://i.imgur.com/ySjgSfV.png This comic]] even shows him as the Southeast Asian version of Germany. |
| 419 | |
| 420 | !!Thailand |
| 421 | [[quoteright:310:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/thailand_9.png]] |
| 422 | * AttractiveBentGender: Is often depicted as a Thai ladyboy. Most countryballs end up becoming attracted to him without knowing his real gender. |
| 423 | * BerserkButton: He has a pretty low opinion of communism, something he shares with Indonesia. |
| 424 | * FireBreathingDiner: [[http://i.imgur.com/pPoBTFU.png USA tried his food once]], [[BlackComedy and was promptly reduced to ashes]]. |
| 425 | * HeterosexualLifePartners: Considers Laos as his best friend, further helped by sharing similar cultures and mutually intelligible languages as well as being the only neighboring countryball that he doesn't have any old quarrels with. |
| 426 | * IdenticalStranger: He bears a strong resemblance to Costa Rica and (unfortunately) North Korea. The latter is made more jarring considering he hates communists. |
| 427 | * NiceGuy: He is generally a very reserved, calm guy who likes smiling. |
| 428 | * OnlySaneMan: Appears as this, as he is the only Southeast Asian country to not be colonized by outside powers, and generally acts the sanest amongst the countries of the region. |
| 429 | ** This is however, ultimately subverted when it was revealed that he has his own woes with separatists, as well as being controlled by a military junta. |
| 430 | * TheRival: To Cambodia and Myanmar/Burma, both are [[ArchEnemy Arch-Enemies]] in the past. |
| 431 | * SignatureLaugh: His laughter is always rendered as "55555" due to the fact that the Thai word for the number five sounds like "ha". |
| 432 | * SupremeChef: He is usually regarded as the best chef in South East Asia, and [[ThroughHisStomach has used this trait to great results in diplomacy.]] |
| 433 | * UnsettlingGenderReveal: Needless to say, other countryballs are rather shocked when they realise that Thailand is a boy. |
| 434 | |
| 435 | !!Vietnam |

| 437 | [[caption-width-right:310:Don't challenge him into a war if you value your life.]] |
| 438 | * AllAsiansWearConicalStrawHats: Is often drawn wearing one. |
| 439 | * AntagonisticOffspring: Is one is regards to his father France. They are somewhat getting along fine nowadays though. |
| 440 | * ArchEnemy: China, exarcebated by their history and dispute of Spratly and Paracel. He decided to burn Chinese flags in a show of hatred once- which would've been effective if it [[http://i.imgur.com/eHhSYWa.png?1 wasn't for the fact]] that he was burning the ''[[EpicFail wrong]]'' flag. |
| 441 | * BerserkButton: "Gib Spratly Islands!" |
| 442 | * ButForMeItWasTuesday: Downplayed. He remembers the American phase of the Vietnam War, but it doesn't seem to be nearly as important to him as it is to America. After all he fought France before than and China after. |
| 443 | * ChummyCommies: Despite still being communist, he has a decent relationship with the rest of the world outside of some territory disputes. His struggles during the Cold War is also often depicted in a sympathetic light. |
| 444 | * CoolBigBro: Attempts to take a leadership role among the Indochina trio. The results are... mixed at best. |
| 445 | * CordonBleughChef: Fried tarantula, rats etc. Averted when Pho is brought up, itself having won a few facebook contests on the best national fast good. |
| 446 | * DarkAndTroubledPast: A lot of his memories are filled with blood, bombs, death etc. Just like the others, he too suffered a lot due to colonial powers and of course Japan. |
| 447 | * DefeatMeansFriendship: Won a major war against the US, and these days is quite friendly with him. Averted with China, with whom he has a much longer history of conflict. |
| 448 | * TheDreaded: He still poses as this to USA sometimes, oftentimes giving him flashbacks to his failure to defeat him in the Vietnam War. |
| 449 | * EnemyMine: Both he and the Philippines argue over the Spratly Islands and their claims, but [[http://i.imgur.com/YkJaxU1.png they can both agree to hate China.]] |
| 450 | * PintSizedPowerhouse: Often drawn on the small side, but has [[http://i.imgur.com/Y5Sq7k6.png successfully beaten huge powers]] like the US, China, and Mongolia. |
| 451 | * StealthExpert: Infamous for guerrilla tactics, Vietnam has a knack for hiding in trees and bushes. |
| 452 | * TeamSwitzerland: One of the few countries to be good friends with both USA and Russia, though the tension between those two makes things awkward for him. |
| 453 | * ThoseTwoGuys: With Laos sometimes, as they are both communists. |

| 455 | !!East Timor |
| 456 | [[quoteright:257:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/et_3.png]] |
| 457 | * DarkAndTroubledPast: Obrigadu Indonesia. |
| 458 | * TheDutifulSon: He and Portugal still love each other very much, and he tries hard to make his father proud. While as Aussie's ward he also does this. |
| 459 | * IJustWantToBeSpecial: He's painfully aware that he's the least relevant of the Lusophone countries. |
| 460 | |

| 463 | |
| 464 | [[folder: Nations of the Middle East]] |
| 465 | |
| 466 | !!Common Tropes: |
| 467 | * ArabBeobleTalk: Common, but not necessarily the rule for the Arabic-speaking countries. |
| 468 | * DysfunctionJunction: Owing to the region being one of the most volatile areas in the world. |
| 469 | |
| 470 | !!Bahrain |
| 471 | * AntagonisticOffspring: Tends to have this dynamic with Iran, who sometimes attempts to anschluss him. |
| 472 | |
| 473 | !!Iran |
| 474 | [[quoteright:310:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/iran.png]] |
| 475 | * ArchEnemy: Saudi Arabia and Israel. Both are bastions of American power projection, and the former happily engages in [[ProxyWar proxy wars]] with him over Syria and Yemen over regional influence. |
| 476 | ** Unsurprisingly, Iran also considers USA one of his biggest enemies, but like he did to Venezuela and Cuba, USA more or less treats him as an UnknownRival. |
| 477 | * BrutalHonesty: Does not mince his words that much. |
| 478 | * FriendlyEnemy: Iran and Turkey have been at each others' throats for hundreds of years, but they still hang out and commiserate from time to time. |
| 479 | * {{Jerkass}}: His rampant misogyny and short fuse don't make him any better than Saudi Arabia in this regard. |
| 480 | * OddFriendship: Gets along oddly well with Poland, in spite of the latter being highly catholic. Iran feels a significant degree of sympathy towards him due to his violent history of getting invaded by various regional powers time to time, and provided safe haven for him during World War 2. |
| 481 | * RetiredBadass: Not that he's a pushover today, but at various points in his history he's been one of the most powerful empires on earth. |
| 482 | * StrawMisogynist: Much like Saudi Arabia, he's particularly infamous for his very poor track record in terms of women's rights. |
| 483 | * WeUsedToBeFriends: He and USA used to be good friends when he was still Pahlavi Iran, but it was all thrown out of the window when he became the Islamic Republic. |
| 484 | |
| 485 | !!Iraq |
| 486 | [[quoteright:263:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/iraq.png]] |
| 487 | * ButtMonkey / TraumaCongaLine: Has been involved in a lot of conflicts and wars. |
| 488 | ** IronButtMonkey: In spite of all of these, he still manages to stand still to this day and maintain amicable relationships with many countries as seen from [[https://www.polandballwiki.com/wiki/Iraqball#Friends the friend list in his Polandball wiki page]]. Also see {{Determinator}} below. |
| 489 | * CrapsackWorld: Something he shares with Syria, as he has to deal with ISIS and the Kurds vying for independence from him. Thanks to his determination, he is slowly steering away from this. |
| 490 | * {{Determinator}}: The constant wars and conflicts were terrible for him, but he constantly strives to improve his situation. His insistence on doing so results in him liberating his territories from ISIS recently, and continues handling the Kurds. |
| 491 | * TheEeyore: He is rarely seen smiling or laughing. [[JustifiedTrope Not that he didn't have any good reasons to, though]]. |
| 492 | * HeterosexualLifePartners: With Syria. [[BreadEggsMilkSquick Their flag similarities, being predominantly Muslim, and having a lot of conflicts inside themselves]] reinforce this trope. |
| 493 | * HotBlooded: Described as such. |
| 494 | * KnightInSourArmor: His struggles against ISIS turned him into this; he doesn't consider his quest in improving his situation to be easy in the slightest, but he keeps persevering and to surprising success too. |
| 495 | * NosyNeighbor: To Kuwait during the Gulf War. Saying that he is very interested in taking his clay is an understatement. |
| 496 | * TookALevelInKindness: Used to universally be portrayed as only reluctantly going along with the whole democracy thing only under threat of more war with the United States and someone who would snap back to a genocidal dictatorship if given half a chance. However since his rather passionate struggle against ISIS hes now more frequently portrayed as a determinator dedicated to ridding the world of evil. |
| 497 | * WeUsedToBeFriends: Inverted. He has had pretty tense relationships with a lot of western countries in the past (particularly USA and UK), but has become quite friendly with them these days, as he is grateful at them for helping him remove ISIS, although past occurrences still make their relationships kind of rocky. [[https://i.redd.it/ua7icikedsq31.png The same could be said about Iran as well]]. |
| 498 | |
| 499 | !!Israel |
| 500 | [[quoteright:260:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/img_3664.PNG]] |
| 501 | [[caption-width-right:260:Shalom]] |
| 502 | * ArchEnemy: '''Palestine'''. |
| 503 | * BadassIsraeli: He doesn't normally throw the first punch, but if you provoke him, you're unlikely to come out of it in one piece. |
| 504 | * BlackComedy: Holocaust jokes are a staple, as are anti-Semitic stereotypes played for laughs (see GreedyJew below). |
| 505 | * CompositeCharacter: He represents both the modern state of Israel and the Jewish people as a whole. |
| 506 | * DarkAndTroubledPast: The Holocaust was terrible for him (even though [[AnachronismStew technically he didn't exist during that time]]). |
| 507 | * TheEeyore: Rarely smiles or laughs. For some reason. |
| 508 | * GreedyJew: Is often drawn to money and won't lose a chance to get some coins. |
| 509 | * ManBehindTheMan: Often depicted as a puppetmaster. |
| 510 | * ManipulativeBastard: He can be quite good at manipulating USA and Germany, by [[ThroughHisStomach tempting the former with food]] or guilt-tripping the latter about the Holocaust. |
| 511 | * MessianicArchetype: Amusingly, he is also used as a stand-in for UsefulNotes/{{Jesus}} (who was Jewish) whenever a cross is depicted in the comic with Israelcube hanging from it. |
| 512 | * NonStandardCharacterDesign: Is a (hyper)cube because of Jewish Physics. |
| 513 | * TheOmniscient: He is a four-dimensional hypercube, so he can experience all past, future and present at once as [[https://i.redd.it/5402aaerizn11.png explained here]]. |
| 514 | * PhysicalGod: Not usually, but on occasion has stood in for the Abrahamic God. |
| 515 | * UnknownRival: He has a lot of enemies who wanted him dead, but with the exception of Palestine, he more or less acts indifferent towards them. |
| 516 | |
| 517 | !!Jordan |
| 518 | [[quoteright:270:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/jordanball23apr.png]] |
| 519 | * CoolShades: Is often drawn wearing one. |
| 520 | * NiceGuy: He is very polite and does not have many enemies asides from ISIS. |
| 521 | * OddFriendship: He has a pretty amicable relationship with Israel, [[InNameOnly albeit begrudgingly and in-paper-only]]. |
| 522 | * OnlySaneMan: Asides from Oman and Kuwait, he is one of the more normal countries in the Middle East. Despite being sandwiched between countries who all have their own conflicts and has to take in their refugees, he has been able to keep himself stable. |
| 523 | * TheRemnant: Of the Hashemite monarchies that ruled the Hezaj for hundreds of years and, briefly, Iraq and Syria. |
| 524 | |
| 525 | !!Kuwait |
| 526 | [[quoteright:260:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/kuwait.png]] |
| 527 | * ArabOilSheikh: He has a lot of oil and his currency is the strongest in the world, so comics that do bother featuring him will show him pretty rich. |
| 528 | * ArchEnemy: Got bullied a lot by Iraq in the gulf war. |
| 529 | * OddFriendship: Sometimes is portrayed as getting along oddly well with Iran, even though it is pretty much [[http://i.imgur.com/RGmXpSF.png one-sided]]. |
| 530 | * OnlySaneMan: Counts as this both amongst the Middle East and the Saudi-led Gulf Nations. Apart from the Iraqi invasion in the Gulf War, he has been doing well for himself (as evidenced by his ArabOilSheikh status) and is a mediator among the aforementioned Gulf nations. |
| 531 | * OutOfFocus: He only appears in comics that are about the Gulf War really. Other times he'll be lucky to be a background character. |
| 532 | * PintSizedPowerhouse: He is smaller than most other Gulf Countries, but is one of the richest amongst them. Also see ArabOilSheikh above. |
| 533 | |
| 534 | !!Lebanon |
| 535 | [[quoteright:234:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/lebanon_7.png]] |
| 536 | * ArchEnemy: Israel, oh so much. He resents him more than everyone and is second to Palestine in this regard. |
| 537 | * BerserkButton: Lebanon is of glorious ''Phoenician'' heritage, not of Arab! |
| 538 | * ChristmasEpisode: He is often associated with [[https://imgur.com/PpWqFzk Christmas]] because of the tree on his flag and having a large Christian population. He gets targeted by kebabs very often because of this. |
| 539 | * CommonalityConnection: Seems to [[http://i.imgur.com/yySMVpv.png share his appreciation of trees with Canada]]. |
| 540 | ** Averted with Palestine. They both consider Israel their archenemy, but their relations with each other have been pretty tense at times as well. |
| 541 | * DarkAndTroubledPast: He's had it rough with the Lebanese Civil War. |
| 542 | * GratuitousFrench: The only Middle Eastern country to ever drop French into his broken English. Justified since he was ruled by France for a while. |
| 543 | ** GratuitousForeignLanguage: Sometimes he'll drop an Armenian word as well, owing to being nearly 5% Armenian in RealLife. |
| 544 | * IdenticalStranger: Lebanon has been described as a Christmas Austria. |
| 545 | * ImAHumanitarian: [[http://i.imgur.com/FQOoSPu.png In this comic.]] Also doubles as a case of IncrediblyLamePun. |
| 546 | * RunningGag: Expect [[https://i.imgur.com/Thxfccq.png a lot]] [[http://i.imgur.com/gtS1Zkr.jpg of comics]] featuring him to joke about the tree on his flag. |
| 547 | |
| 548 | !!Oman |
| 549 | [[quoteright:177:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/oman.png]] |
| 550 | * CatchPhrase: "Oh." |
| 551 | * GenkiGuy: Is a happy-go-lucky guy in general. |
| 552 | * NiceGuy: Is the nicest out of all the Arabian countries. He noticeably hasn't had any civil unrest yet, and even maintains a good relationship with Iran. |
| 553 | * OnlySaneMan: One of the more normal Middle East nations alongside Jordan and Kuwait, considering the geopolitical woes his neighbors had. |
| 554 | * OutOfFocus: Not as bad as Kuwait, but he does not have much comics focusing on him. |
| 555 | * TeamSwitzerland: It has been joked that he is the Switzerland of the Arabs, as he stays out from any regional conflicts coming from his neighborhood. |
| 556 | |
| 557 | !!Palestine |
| 558 | [[quoteright:178:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/palestine_1.png]] |
| 559 | * ArchEnemy: '''Israel'''. It's been stated that they'll probably go on fighting until the end of time. |
| 560 | * BigGuyLittleGuy: The Little Guy to his neighbor/best friend's Jordan's Big Guy. |
| 561 | * CommonalityConnection: Recognizing him and hating Israel is a good way for one to get on his good side. |
| 562 | * {{Determinator}}: Constantly wants to improve his situation. No matter how much times he was pushed back by Israel, he is still kicking. |
| 563 | * OddFriendship: With India, who is predominantly Hindu, and is also a friend of Israel. The fact that India gives a lot of aid to him helps. He even cites that he started to like him over Pakistan. |
| 564 | * TheRuntAtTheEnd: Often portrayed as this amongst the Middle East nations. |
| 565 | |
| 566 | !!Qatar |
| 567 | [[quoteright:279:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/qatar.png]] |
| 568 | * BadBoss: Treats his workers really badly. |
| 569 | * CoolShades: Due to his richness, he is often drawn wearing one. |
| 570 | * TheFriendNobodyLikes: Following his diplomatic tension, he has become this among the Gulf Countries recently. |
| 571 | * PintSizedPowerhouse: One of the richest country in the Middle East, and is smaller than most of his neighbors in size. |
| 572 | * ScrewTheRulesIHaveMoney: Became the host for the 2022 World Cup through bribery. |
| 573 | * SmugSuper: Has one of the largest oil reserves in the region, and will not hesitate to brag about it. |
| 574 | * WeUsedToBeFriends: With Saudi Arabia before his diplomatic crisis happened. |
| 575 | |
| 576 | !!Saudi Arabia |
| 577 | [[quoteright:269:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/saudi_arabia.png]] |
| 578 | * AdiposeRex: Sometimes he is depicted as fat like America because of his wealth and the fact he is an absolute monarchy. |
| 579 | * ArchEnemy: Iran, over regional influence. |
| 580 | * TheBully: Can act like this towards his neighbors, specially to [[https://external-preview.redd.it/Jw-YavYm_rOAgOsK6RqWMYsKuv-k3vkIQXqOgxFLne4.png?auto=webp&s=cf644d2d386ed0e1f950823c42d79e85cecb0d2d Qatar]]... |
| 581 | * CoolShades: Occasionally wears one. |
| 582 | * CulturalPosturing: Believes that he's the only true Muslim country. |
| 583 | ** On a bad day, he even believes he's the only true ''Arab'' country. |
| 584 | * ExpressiveShirt: Similar to Brazil, the ''shahada'' on his flag is sometimes altered in certain comics though this will only be [[BilingualBonus noticeable to Arabic speakers]]. |
| 585 | * TheFundamentalist: One of his most prominent characterizations, owing to the country's incredibly strict application of Sharia law. |
| 586 | * HolierThanThou: Due to being home of two of the holiest sites in all of Islam, he holds this attitude in regards to secular Muslims. |
| 587 | * {{Jerkass}}: He's fundamentalist, trigger-happy, egotistical and incredibly bigoted towards anyone else who isn't a straight Arab male; [[TheFriendNobodyLikes even his closest allies only put up with him because of his oil and nothing else.]] He's probably the closest modern day sovereign countryball that could qualify as a HateSink, even more so than North Korea. |
| 588 | * LargeAndInCharge: The largest country in the Middle East as a whole, and is often shown taking charge or leading the other Arabophone nations in their daily agendas. |
| 589 | * OddFriendship: Gets along better with Israel than you would expect. |
| 590 | ** With the US and several other Western countries as well; the oil trade makes up for their immense ValuesDissonance. |
| 591 | * MaskOfSanity: Despite being TheStoic, he has a [[https://i.redd.it/8lxh32izgbu11.png very unhinged side]]: he uses the [[ColdBloodedTorture ancient Assyrian methods of torture]] to silence his critics. [[spoiler:Amusingly he botches it pretty badly by following it to the letter]]. |
| 592 | -->''[[AxeCrazy Inshallah this will only hurt al-lot!]]'' |
| 593 | * PoliticallyIncorrectVillain: And how! He notably revels in his ability to be so socially backwards compared to just about everyone else. |
| 594 | * TheFriendNobodyLikes: One of the most controversial nations around. He does have his allies, and most of his neighbors try not to get on his bad side, but it's basically only because of his oil and trigger-happiness. |
| 595 | * ScrewTheRulesIHaveMoney: His vast oil reserves mean other countries tend to let him get away with a lot. Sometimes even he's confused by [[http://i.imgur.com/fVz7g6M.png how well it works for him.]] |
| 596 | * TheStoic: The long, thin sword gives the appearance of a level mouth on a countryball. Expect this to receive special attention if [[PerpetualFrowner Venezuela]] and [[PerpetualSmiler Mauritania]] make an appearance in the same comic. |
| 597 | ** The sunglasses that he occasionally wears reinforce this trope. |
| 598 | * StrawMisogynist: Has a really poor record of women's rights, even though he recently allowed them to vote and drive, its still a long way to go. |
| 599 | * UnclePennybags: Comics that feature him will often highlight how rich he is. |
| 600 | |
| 601 | !!Syria |
| 602 | [[quoteright:196:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/syria_5.png]] |
| 603 | * CrapsackWorld: Owing to his civil war. And it won't end with defeating ISIS. |
| 604 | ** Nothing that can't be put to [[https://i.imgur.com/G1qRqwV.png song!]] |
| 605 | * HeterosexualLifePartners: With Iraq. |
| 606 | * ProxyWar: While he's invariably at war with himself, the numerous sides he has been split into are supported to varying degrees by other folks like Iran, Russia, Saudi Arabia, Turkey, and the US to name a few. |
| 607 | * [[WarRefugees War Refugee]]: One who Europe has pretty mixed feelings about. |
| 608 | |
| 609 | !!United Arab Emirates |
| 610 | [[quoteright:194:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/uae_3.png]] |
| 611 | * ArabOilSheikh: Is usually portrayed as one. |
| 612 | * BigBrotherWorship: To Saudi Arabia, owing to both having big oil reserves and Saudi inspiring him a lot before his independence. |
| 613 | * HeterosexualLifePartners: With Saudi Arabia. |
| 614 | ** ThoseTwoGuys: Sometimes slips into this dynamic. |
| 615 | * SatelliteCharacter: In-universe, some of his detractors proclaim him as this to Saudi Arabia. |
| 616 | * SmugSuper: Can be very proud about his country's oil and richness. |
| 617 | |
| 618 | !!Yemen |
| 619 | [[quoteright:236:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/yemen_9.png]] |
| 620 | * ArchEnemy: The Houthis. Also with Eritrea as well. |
| 621 | * ButtMonkey: Is portrayed as this [[https://external-preview.redd.it/XDCgCQNDIQutMTHLn1mMBiE8gX6cxxc0XOKY1Dc5G3U.png?auto=webp&s=afec2f04fabfb89485708e9fd9738c6956d81915 because of his ongoing civil war]]. It doesn't help he is also depicted as Saudi Arabia's punching bag. |
| 622 | * CommonalityConnection: Sympathizes with Ukraine due to their shared problems with their immediate neighbors. |
| 623 | * TheEeyore: His PerpetualPoverty and civil conflicts has constantly left him being sad and dejected. |
| 624 | * IdenticalStranger: He bears resemblance to and looks like a rotated German Empire. [[http://i.imgur.com/UXQKgE9.png This comic]] even shows the German Empire disguising as him. |
| 625 | ** A lot of comics portray him trying to impersonate both [[http://i.imgur.com/IjToUfz.png Reichtangle]] and [[http://i.imgur.com/4fRJTKu.png German]] [[http://i.imgur.com/EyvUIn2.png Empire]]. Whenever he tries to do it for his personal purposes though, it doesn't do much for him. |
| 626 | * {{Irony}}: Experienced them quite a bit regarding his situation, as seen in [[https://i.imgur.com/X4azky0.jpg these]] [[http://i.imgur.com/qZquw8v.png comics]]. |
| 627 | * NothingButSkinAndBones: Is often drawn like this in many comics, due to his PerpetualPoverty. |
| 628 | * PerpetualPoverty: In contrast to his neighbors, shown well in [[http://i.imgur.com/XpYxKIW.png these]] [[http://i.imgur.com/4EBoR0k.png comics]]. |
| 629 | * OddFriendship: Retains a pretty good relationship with USA. |
| 630 | * TrademarkFavoriteFood: Loves ''khat'', shown in [[http://i.imgur.com/UXQKgE9.png here]]. |
| 631 | * UndyingLoyalty: In spite of all of the problems ravaging his country, he has managed to stay religious. |
| 632 | * WhosOnFirst: [[https://www.reddit.com/r/polandball/comments/n5o0zp/yeah_man/ Yeah, man]]. |
