Cyprus

Three years prior to his manga debut, his only appearance was on the drama CD “Axis Powers Hetalia: The CD” in the track The Flag of Cyprus. In that track, he is shown to be a very expressive and polite young man, who is very much a peace-lover. A Mediterranean nation who was once under the control of Turkey and England, he is now fought over by both Greece and Turkey, though he hopes that they will be able to reach a resolution and get along someday.

Despite the fact that his younger brother, Turkish Republic of Northern Cyprus, wants to unite with him, Cyprus still engages in dialogue with him, much to the annoyance of Greece. In the end, he yells at both Turkey and Greece and scolds them. His appearance in volume 4 re-enforces that Greece and Turkey’s rivalry is one thing that will frequently make him break his peaceful manner and become agitated.

He is a bed-wetter, and apparently pees in the shape of the Cyprus island. Character notes reveal that he is cool, composed, and easy-going, but is “quite busy” due to Turkey and Greece’s arguing. During the Christmas 2011 event, he reveals that he loves the special atmosphere of the holiday and states that he is inexplicably in a cheerful mood.
