List of historical characters

This is a list of historical characters in Hetalia: Axis Powers. These characters represent either inexplicably or explicitly actual persons from history and are shown interacting with Nations in different manners such as a "boss" (i.e. ruler).

European Figures

Flag of Germany (1935–1945).svg Adolf Hitler (アドルフ・ヒトラー Adorufu Hitorā?)
Voiced by Ken Takeuchi in Japanese and R Bruce Elliott in English.

Referred to as "Germany's boss", he is seen in stories set around the time of World War II, but his face is never shown. He first appears in Chapter 4: Pact of Steel of the original webcomic, where he and Germany are preparing for a meeting with Russia. He has misplaced something and is giving Germany notes on what to do when he arrives, including having high-class Vodka on hand.[1] Germany later complains to Finland about his boss, claiming that he even sent him to try to find the Holy Grail. Finland asks if Germany worries that his boss might throw him in jail for complaining, and while Germany expresses his doubts, Finland concludes that Germany's boss could foreseeably go that far.[1]

Hitler later appears in The Austrian Anschluss telling Germany to annex Austria,[2] and at the end of Lithuania’s Out-Sourcing Series Part 3: The Great Depression where he is seen kicking away Germany's reparations collections bag that had worsened the country's situation during the Great Depression, having gained power towards the end of the crisis.[3]

Banner of the Holy Roman Emperor with haloes (1400-1806).svg Charles VI, Holy Roman Emperor (カール6世 (神聖ローマ皇帝) Kāru 6sei (Shinsei Roma Kōtei)?)

Royal Standard of the King of France.svg Charles VII of France (シャルル7世 (フランス王) Charuru 7sei (Furansu Ou)?)

She first appeared in a sketch posted on Himaruya's blog in September 2010 and was described as a free spirited woman during the 17th century.[6] She was mentioned again in the third interval drama CD as a former boss of Sweden's. When Finland asked what kind of person she was, Sweden responded that she became queen at the age of 6 then began planning her retirement at the age of 20. He then states she abolished her position on the throne and left on a journey to travel the world, much to Finland's astonishment. When Finland asked if Sweden was okay with her doing that, he responded that she looked like she was enjoying herself so it was okay with him. Finland later notes that despite the lack of change in his facial expression, Sweden appeared to be feeling nostalgic and was probably thinking about how good of a queen she was.[7]

Flag of England.svg David Beckham (デビッド・ベッカム Debiddo Bekkamu?)

Beckham is an English former footballer who makes a brief appearance in Comic Diary 10 in the strip "Liechtenstein vs. England," where he's seen talking to Liechtenstein.[8]

Flag of Prussia (1892-1918).svg Frederick the Great (フリードリヒ2世 (プロイセン王) Furīdorihi 2sei (Puroisen Ou)?)

Prussia's favorite boss of all time, whom he refers to as "Old Fritz."[10] He appears in Maria Theresa and the Seven Years War where he announces to Prussia that they are allying with England.[11] He also made an appearance in a 4koma strip during the Christmas 2011 event, where the Prussian army requests Frederick to use a certain strategy against their enemy, which results in him playing his flute.[12] A short bio and extra sketches of Frederick were included in the special booklet of volume 4.[13]

Voiced by Michiko Neya in Japanese and Stephanie Young in English.

Referred to as "Spain's boss", she appears in Boss Spain’s Control of Southern Italy, where she questions Spain about how Romano's education is going.[20] In the footnotes it is explained that she was sometimes called "Mad Queen Joanna" due to a purported mental illness, and it was said that she would sometimes do things repeatedly in confusion. As a result of that environment and time period, the pressure of her position made her a very unhappy and ridiculed ruler.[20]

In the anime adaption of Boss Spain’s control of Southern Italy, Part 2 she replaces an unseen ruler in scolding Spain for starting a war with Turkey just so he could get Romano back. In Volume 3, a retelling of Spain and Romano's history is presented in the chapter Boss Spain & Chibi Romano, where Joanna is replaced with Belgium.[21]
