This is a list of the most popular pairings in the Hetalia: Axis Powers fandom, started by hints of canonical evidence in the manga and anime, or ones that have grown to become popular with little evidence so far in the series.

America/Belarus

Main article: America/Belarus
Also known as: AlNata (アルナタ)

A rather popular hetero pairing, it is usually depicted as a love/hate relationship. While the two haven't been shown together in many comics, it is mentioned in the strip Russia's Big and Little Sister that Belarus has become sort of an adopted sister to America after the fall of the Soviet Union.

America/Canada

Main article: America/Canada
Also known as: AmeCan/CanAme, Americest/Americacest, North American brothers (北米兄弟)

America/England

Main article: America/England
Also known as: USUK, JOKER, AlAsa (アルアサ)

America/Estonia

Main article: America/Estonia
Also known as: AmeEst

When Estonia's websites were hacked and turned into pro-Russia sites, America came to help find the culprit. America then asked to star in Estonia's independent film and create "a really awesome ending." This pairing seems to be mostly fan-based.

America/Japan

Main article: America/Japan
Also known as: AlKiku (アル菊), Uneven pair (デコボコンビ)

America/Korea

Main article: America/Korea
Also known as: AmerKo, Kimchi burger (キムチバーガー)

America/Lithuania

Main article: America/Lithuania
Also known as: AmeLith, AlTori (アルトリ), Coffee pair (コーヒー組)

America/Taiwan

Main article: America/Taiwan
Also known as: AmeTai, Plum shake (梅シェイク)

A pairing that is still quite rare, and since they have yet to appear together in the comics, unfounded. The history between the two until present day would only suggest America thinking of Taiwan as a little sister. They are drawn and written together in fanon predominately because of the Taiwanese fanbase for Hetalia.

America/Ukraine

Main article: America/Ukraine
Also known as: AmeUkr (米ウク), Supersize pair (スーパーサイズコンビ)

A rare hetero pairing, with the two never actually having any interaction in the comics. Although it is mentioned in Russia's Big and Little Sister that Ukraine is now friends with America after the Soviet Union split. The pairing is most likely based on the close relation between the two countries.

Austria/Hungary

Main article: Austria/Hungary
Also known as: AusHun/HunAus, Peaceful couple (ほんわか夫婦)

Austria/Switzerland

Main article: Austria/Switzerland
Also known as: AusSwit, AustroSwiss, Edelweiss pair (エーデルワイスコンビ)

Belarus/Russia

Main article: Belarus/Russia
Also known as: BelaRus/RusBela, IvaNata (イヴァナタ), Yandere brother and sister (ヤンデレ兄妹)

Belarus/Ukraine

Main article: Belarus/Ukraine
Also known as: BelaUkr, Snow skin sisters (雪肌姉妹)

A rare, non-canon pairing. Belarus and Ukraine are often drawn (and then shipped) together by fans of female/female pairings. They are both Russia's sisters (thus making this pairing incestuous), and are most likely paired together because they are two of the few female countries that have interacted together in canon.

Canada/Ukraine

Main article: Canada/Ukraine
Also known as: CanUkr

China/Taiwan

Main article: China/Taiwan
Also known as: Chinese siblings (中華兄妹)

A rare, hetero pairing. It is usually depicted as angsty based on current disputes between the two countries. Taiwan appears to be very annoyed by China, as shown in one sketch of her poking China and telling him to leave Japan alone. It is unknown how China feels about her, but in some fanarts he is shown as wanting to marry her, possibly referring to how the People's Republic of China would like to reunite with Taiwan. It is safe to assume that any feelings for each other would be very one-sided on China's part.

Cuba/Canada

Main article: Cuba/Canada
Also known as: Cubanada, Ice fondue (アイスフォンデュ)

Denmark/Canada

Main article: Denmark/Canada
Also known as: DenCan, Maple Danish

A crack pairing. Historically noting, the countries have an interesting geopolitical relationship involving the sovereignty of Hans Island.

Varying fanworks depict them as brothers, friends, rivals (mostly of Hans Island but can regard the arctic in general) and even lovers due to the co-operative missions of surveying and promoting arctic conservation of Northern Canada and Denmark's autonomous region, Greenland. Notably, Greenland has an interest with establishing more ties with Nunavut due to the prevalent Inuit culture.

Denmark/Norway

Estonia and Finland are close friends. They have known each other for a long period of time, and have bonded with each other over their love for strange festivals. A common basis for their pairing by fans is that they are two of only a few European nations to speak a Uralic language rather than an Indo-European language.

Austria and Germany were allied in both the First and Second World Wars, despite the Treaty of Versailles, signed at the end of the First World War, forbidding the union of the two countries in any way. In the manga, Austria is shown as not much minding the Anschluss in 1938, as a reference to the large number of votes that were claimed to be in favor of the union. Germany regarded Austria as a bothersome "not-wife", especially after Austria patched his underwear after grumbling about being 'wasteful'.

A crack pairing. In terms of political membership, Iceland and Liechtenstein (as well as their bothers, Norway and Switzerland respectively) are all sole members of the European Free Trade Association. Added to this is that both are small countries formerly ruled by renown empires; specifically the Kalmar and the Denmark–Norway Union with Iceland and the former House of Hapsburg with Liechtenstein.

The pairing is sometimes referred as the ribbon pairing because of both nations wearing ribbons by their chest.

During World War II, the Canadian government housed some members the Dutch royal family during the German occupation of the Netherlands as well Canadian soldiers being the main force to liberate and provide aid for the country at the end of the war.

In fanworks, Netherlands is often shown or mentioned giving Canada a bouquet of tulips as a gesture of friendship or a declaration of love in reference to the annual gift of tulips sent to Ottawa.

Netherlands/Japan

Main article: Netherlands/Japan
Also known as: Pickle pair (漬物組)

Norway/Canada

Main article: Norway/Canada

A rare pairing. Historically, Norwegian and Icelandic vikings were the first Europeans to have come in contact with Canada with evidence from L'Anse aux Meadows. Additionally during the Second World War, an aircraft training facility called "Little Norway" was established when Norway was unable to regroup from the Nazi occupation.

In fanworks, Norway is often depicted as an older brother/caretaker of Canada during the early eleventh century until Norway eventually had to leave due to the failure of establishing a permanent colony, added to the inability to retrace the New World at the time.

Also known as: PolIta, Feli pair (フェリコンビ)

Depending on the introduction, Poland and Italy either met and played with each other as small children, or met at some point in their teens while Italy was still under Austria's rule and when Poland had yet to achieve his independence.

Prussia/North Italy

Main article: Prussia/North Italy
Also known as: PruIta, Prutalia, Chick pair (ひよこんび)

Even though the two are not often seen together, Prussia finds Italy to be very cute and acts incredibly affectionate to him, much to the irritation of Prussia's brother, Germany. During his April Fools' hacking, he expressed joy at being able to interact with Italy (who in turn enjoyed his company).

In a production note by Himaruya, it is also said that Prussia yearned for the warm Italian sun while he was under control of Russia. Historically, Prussia also helped out Italy in its unification process, so it is speculated that his affection (and Italy's warmness towards him) could stem from there. In the drama CD adaptation of Prussia's blog event, Prussia invited Italy to go on a date with him to the Danube River , though Italy's attention was more focused on Prussia's new bird.

Prussia/Norway

Main article: Prussia/Norway
Also known as: PruNor

When Prussia hacked Kitayume and made it his blog during April Fools '09, there was an entry about him taking pictures of the Nordics. Since Norway seems to be the type of person who's aware of his surroundings, there have been discussions about Norway seeing Prussia while he tried to take a picture - This could have been a canon interaction. History wise, they have interacted with each other a few times during World War II and the period after that. Prussia's personality is also alike Denmark's, which makes it easier to see Prussia and Norway as pair. On a side note, Fredrik Vilhelm III of Prussia and King Haakon VII of Norway are related.

Prussia/Poland

Main article: Prussia/Poland
Also known as: PrusPol, GilKs (ギルックス)

A pairing based mainly on fan speculations, their interpretations of the two's history and ups and downs in their relations. It is very often seen by its fans as a love/hate relationship. Prussia has once commented that he had rocky relations with Poland, alongside with Hungary.

Romania/Hungary

Main article: Romania/Hungary
Also known as: RomHun/HunRom

Romania and Hungary are often paired in a 'love/hate' relationship, mainly because of the history that the two share, but also because of the notes that appear in Hungary's bio, of her and Romania constantly mocking each-other.

Rome/Germania

Main article: Rome/Germania
Also known as: Inseparable ties pair (腐れ縁コンビ)

Russia/Finland

Main article: Russia/Finland
Also known as: RusFin/RussFin, Santa pair (サンタ組)

The two haven't interacted in the comic yet but are sometimes paired because of the long and complicated history of occupation, terror and numerous wars, as well as close ties during the Cold War and the present day. Before gaining his independence, Finland lived in Russia's house for about a century; in the comic he stated that he actually felt more free there than with Sweden, though his will to build a harbor was ignored. (It should be noted that Finland, who was granted autonomy, had rather pleasant relations with Russia until the turn of the 20th century when the Russification policy drove a wedge between them.)

The pairing is usually depicted angsty and is often concentrating on historical conflicts such as the Winter War, Russia's failed attempt to take over Finland. The softer side of it is seen for example in fanworks involving the beginning of the Russian rule, with Russia favoring Finland in hope it would make him to like him.

Russia/Iceland

Main article: Russia/Iceland
Also known as: RusIce, Frozen sunflower (冷凍ヒマワリ)

A rare pairing. In the character definition of Iceland, it said that Russia helped him when he caught a cold, and Iceland accept his kindness, although he felt suspicious about it. This statement means that they used to be friends.

Russia/Latvia

Main article: Russia/Latvia
Also known as: RusLat, Riga life pair (リガ生活組)

Russia/Lithuania

Main article: Russia/Lithuania
Also known as: RusLiet/RussLiet/RussLi (露立)

Russia/Poland

Main article: Russia/Poland
Also known as: RusPol

The two have argued with each other at least since the early 1600s, when Poland succeeded in capturing Moscow. Russia's revenge for this was taking part, together with Prussia and Austria, in the partitions of Poland. In 1939, Russia decided to partition Poland again, this time in conjunction with Germany; Russia has said that partitioning Poland is his hobby. Their relationship was further soured by the years of post-war Soviet domination. It should be noted that Poland is not afraid of Russia; Poland actively defends Lithuania from Russia despite the inherent threat.

Fans of this pairing see it as a very intense love-hate relationship, both in terms of the characters involved and of the nations and people the characters represent.

Russia/Prussia

Main article: Russia/Prussia
Also known as: RusPru,(P)Russia, RusPrus, pRussia, Snow rabbit (ユキウザギ)

Russia also comments a few times on Prussia's "Oresama no Blog".

Russia and Prussia fought on opposite sides during the War of the Austrian Succession (1740–1748), and the Seven Years War. Tsar Peter III later signed the Treaty of Saint Petersburg and made peace with Prussia, allowing Prussia's Fredrick the Great to concentrate on other enemies. They then cooperated to carve up Poland-Lithuania between them (1772, 1793 and 1795). During world war 2, Russia took control of East Germany, which is believed to also be Prussia. Kaliningrad Oblast,an oblast of Russia, was once the city of Königsberg. It was originally the capital of East Prussia.
