Description
Elizabeta Héderváry personifies Hungary. Her origins lie in a nomadic childhood on the plains, chasing horses and initially believing herself male until puberty. During this time, she faced bullying from Mongolia and the Ottoman Empire. A childhood rivalry with Prussia included an incident where he groped her, mistakenly targeting a "weak spot" while unaware of her biological sex, creating lasting animosity. This tomboyish past influenced her self-perception, including the use of masculine speech patterns like "ore" when excited.
As a teenager, she entered servitude under Austria within the Holy Roman Empire's household. There, she developed protective feelings toward Austria, noting his kinder treatment compared to others and expressing concern over village hostility toward him. During this era, she and Austria jointly raised a young Italy, with Hungary assuming an older sister role. She dressed Italy in feminine attire, contributing to others' gender confusion about him, and maintained an annual tradition of scaring him as Krampus.
Her military prowess emerged defending Austria against Prussia in the War of Austrian Succession, demanding the return of stolen territories. Involvement in the Seven Years' War and Austro-Prussian War remained undepicted in finalized media. On June 8, 1867, she and Austria married, formalizing the Austro-Hungarian Compromise. This union dissolved after World War I, though their bond persisted. Modern interactions show mutual care: Austria anonymously sent her Valentine's gifts, while Hungary expressed distress over Germany's annexation plans for Austria, urging consideration of his feelings. She once declared her heart "Austrian territory."
Her personality blends toughness and femininity. Described as introverted yet reliable, she exhibits "manly" strength and wields a frying pan as a weapon, notably against France following a divine vision. She enjoys singing eerie songs and hot springs. Paradoxically, she displays fujoshi tendencies, filming Austria's forced stripping by France before intervening and later photographing his partial undress. She also cooed over Holy Roman Empire shielding a naked Chibitalia.
Relationships extend beyond Austria. She nicknames Germany "Germany-chan" and converses easily with him despite his discomfort with older women. Deep-seated enmity with Romania results in naming dogs after him and excluding him from gatherings. With Ukraine and Liechtenstein, she shares nicknames ("Hun," "Uku," "Liechten") and lighthearted moments, such as urging Ukraine to try a revealing Cretan dress.
Visually, she has long brown hair, green eyes, and typically wears traditional Hungarian folk dress. Merchandise often depicts her in a green military beret and uniform. A flower accessory in her hair represents Lake Balaton, shifting from orange in early anime to pink in later seasons to match manga artwork.
Trivia notes her initial conceptualization as a male "unthinkably perverted" character; this design later inspired Lithuania. An ancestor, Magyar, trained her in combat and masculine mannerisms. Her birthday aligns with her wedding date to Austria.
