I actually find the comic as a whole dreadfully boring, moreso than any of the history course I took in college, so I think it's funny that apparently so many people took an interest in history after reading this comic. If I was a teenager who knew nothing about history, this comic would probably turn me off to the subject altogether since I almost fell asleep reading it. And none of the jokes are the least bit funny. NONE.

ETA: It might be funny if it focused on historical figures rather than countries (people make history, not countries -- honestly the comic is more about geography than history half the time). I mean, that old chestnut about Napoleon putting leeches up his ass to cure his hemorrhoids is a lot more funny than "Germany is so tsundere for Italy LOLOLOL"

Hahaha, oh, I get you. I will admit Hetalia gave me a bit of a push when it came to world history (we don't get much of it past WWII and Ancient Egypt in Australia), but I was always a history geek and I ended up leading myself to areas more like Emperor Asoka and Mansa Musa rather than ~US and UK's special relationship~. tbh the more I learnt of ~world history~, the less I enjoyed Hetalia. Now I just look at the comic and go 'christ what boring ass history this is'. Constant European history, yawn.

Haha, funnily enough, what drew me to Hetalia in the first place was 'oh my gosh, it's the countries making history! what an interesting point of view!' but since Hetalia's hasn't been about history for years and is more about tame ethnic jokes and moe stereotypes, I'd have to agree. The unintentional humour found in the history makin' people is fantastic hahaha. Honestly I laughed more at finding out that Wilhelm II had a personal mustache stylist than most of Hetalia.
