And if Israel is included, that would be even more of a problem. After all, there are Hetalia fans in Israel, and in some Arab countries, too. They think that Egypt and Turkey are not the only nations that deserved to be included. Maybe to prevent flamewars, they may just looking for the design of their country and nothing else; fanon can provide the rest, though this is dangerous precedent.

I remember seeing an article in our Hetalia Philippines site. It is about how many Filipino fans are urging Himaruya to reveal the Philippines ASAP. I think that this will only cause Himaruya NOT to include the Philippines at all, and this is even more disturbing.

BTW, what are the fanon stuff for Korea? There are some people who ship Korea with Vietnam, and with good reason, given the recent cultural ties between the two.
