Hetalia: Axis Powers draws from historical events, particularly those following World War II. It frequently reflects a Japanese perspective on political and historical matters and cultural comparisons. The manga portrays personifications of nations and regions. Over 60 countries and territories have been depicted. These depictions draw from positive and negative cultural stereotypes. There have also been historical figures depicted, such as (but not limited to) Maria Theresa, Roman emperors, Napoleon Bonaparte, Leonardo da Vinci and Jeanne d'Arc. There are also personifications of other figures, like General Winter, the United Nations, Italy's tanks and every country's Mr. Newspaper.

Dude, I think the World Conference can convene. Solving all of today's problems by talking excessively! No matter how hard it seems, we can fix anything with enough meetings and photo ops. Feel free to speak honestly while protecting your chances for re-election. I'll go first! About that whole using global warming to enslave humanity thing, I think we'll be okay if we genetically engineer a huge hero and have her protect the Earth - I give you the super hero, 'Globoman'!
