Russia

Russian Federation is a country situated in Eastern Europe and North Asia. Russia is by far or by a considerable margin the largest country in the world by area, covering more than one-eighth of the Earth's inhabited land area.

Russia is one of the most popular countries in human characters. When you think of Countryhumans, a lot of the fandom think of him. This may be because the fandom is predominantly Russian. However, the non-Russian side of the fandom still like them and they will forever be a signature character of the fandom.

Appearance
Russia is typically portrayed as tall slim and wearing an ushanka. They usually wear a (sometimes oversized) light blue striped shirt and jeans. Most fans when drawing them have them with bandages wrapped around their forearms, due to self-harm, which is seemingly linked to the death of their father, as many fans headcanon. They are often shown with a bottle of vodka.

Personality
Different sources depict them differently. Mostly, dark quiet and "dangerous." A lot of people headcanon that they suffer from depression and is often drunk due to drinking too much of their vodka.

Belarus
Russia's sister (Most of the fandom chooses Belarus's gender as a female) or friend, Belarus, is extremely close to them. People ship them sometimes, but people can also think of Belarus as one of Russia's family members or friend.

Ukraine
Russia is also extremely close to their sister. But their relationship is very complicated. It started when USSR, their father died, and he took Crimea – their child – away from her. Since then, they seemed to have despised each other, but since they are siblings, they are still close nonetheless and are even sometimes shipped with each other. This indicates that they do love each other beyond sibling friendship, and even have a daughter, Crimea.

United States of America
America is sometimes an enemy, a friend, or their lover. Some of the fandom ship them from them becoming friends or them being enemies before, then forgiving them, or just in a love-hate situation.

USSR
The relationship between each other was absolutely perfect. He loved his child and knew he loved him back. They did everything together. When USSR died, Russia became suicidal, depressed, completely negative, also started drinking. In the afterlife, the USSR feels terrible that his son is in this state. And wishes he could put a stop to it and make him feel better.

Trivia

 * He is also shipped with America a lot in a "love-hate" relationship.
 * He is mostly depicted with vodka, a stereotypical drink associated with Russia.
