Wang Yao

Wang Yao, also known as China, is a main character and is one of the Allies in Hetalia. He is the human representative of China, and even though he is over 4000 years old, he still manages to have a handsome look and a healthy body. He has dark hair tied back into a ponytail, and is often shown wearing a deep green Chinese military uniform with a red armband. He has a scar on his back, a reminder of when Japan attacked him when they were younger. One of the apparent oldest nations, he happens to be extremely superstitious, but not at all religious. He tries to act as an older brother figure to some of the other Asian nations but often fails to be treated as one; possibly because those nations either know they are not related, do not see him as a brother figure, or don't acknowledge it. Somewhat like America, he likes to be in charge or have what he wants and tries to use his position as the oldest present nation to have that authority but does not get it to the level he wishes. He tends to end his sentences with the suffix "-aru" (a Japanese stereotype of Chinese accents), which he commonly uses when speaking Japanese and English. He is shown to be a lover of cuisine and is said to nag if food has a certain pattern of tastes. On one occasion in the WWII-set strips, he winds up arriving late to a meeting and explains that he always puts his food as his first priority. Unlike Japan, he does not wish to share recipes as he states they should stay in their country of origin. China appears to have a love of cute things, particularly cartoon characters, Hello Kitty, and pandas, and he is frequently seen carrying one. He is also very artistic, as he is skilled at painting beautiful human beings, but also on the otherside; his artistic abilities don't however, apply across the board, as his anime drawings are quite poor compared to Japan's and Korea's. Overall he is a cheerful Chinese, though sometimes he can get easily annoyed and snappy, especially to Korea.
