Overview
Belarus, whose human name is Natalia Arlovskaya, is a character from Hidekaz Himaruya's webcomic and anime series Hetalia Axis Powers, representing the nation of Belarus. As the younger sister of Russia (Ivan Braginsky), she is portrayed as a striking beauty with a dark and intense attachment to her older brother.
Appearance
Belarus is a tall woman with long, straight light blonde hair tied with a large ribbon, available in colors such as white or navy blue, and purple-grey eyes. She wears an old-fashioned maid-style dress featuring puffy long sleeves, an apron, a neck ribbon or bow, gloves, and dark grey tights. Her tall build places her height above Hungary, though she remains shorter than her older sister Ukraine.
Personality
Belarus has a cold, quiet, and sharp-tongued demeanor, often speaking in a coarse, masculine tone. Beneath her aloof exterior lies a stubborn and persistent spirit. She harbors an overwhelming obsession with her older brother, pursuing him relentlessly while remaining largely emotionless and cold toward everyone else around her.
Abilities
She possesses formidable physical strength, capable of easily overpowering bodyguards. In subtle threats or intimidation, she carries and draws a knife.
Background
Representing a Slavic nation in Eastern Europe, Belarus grew up alongside her older sister Ukraine and older brother Russia. Remaining strongly attached to her legacy from the Soviet period, her national identity is depicted through her deep connection to Russia, whom she constantly presses for union and marriage.
Relationships
She addresses her older brother Russia (Ivan Braginsky) with extreme affection, though her overwhelming love terrifies him. She calls Ukraine her older sister and maintains a functional relationship with her. Meanwhile, she utterly rejects Lithuania (Toris Lorinaitis), once breaking his fingers when he attempted closeness, and she has violently threatened Latvia with a knife.
Trivia
Her repeated demands to marry her older brother serve as a political metaphor representing the union or annexation of their respective territories.
