He is shown to be ignorant of the geography outside his own home, believing that maps of the United States constitute the "world map" and that he can simply get to other countries by car travel. He is shown becoming concerned about his weight in the strip '''Supersize You!''' and it is mentioned that he has invented strange diet machines as well as becoming obsessed with exercise (which has caused him to become paranoid about his rising weight, as he is unaware of his building muscle). Aside from being afraid of ghosts and weighing scales, he also fears [[wikipedia:Marmite|Marmite]]. In '''Hetalia Fantasia 2''' it is revealed that America has at least 238 weaknesses, one of those being [[wikipedia:Dora The Explorer|Dora The Explorer]]. As America is obsessed with heroes and happy endings, he hopes that his future will be that way.
