Although I also love discovering new countries u never hear the names of (like Seychelles lol), I think countries like India, Mexico, Portugal, Brazil, etc etc have a longer history, more info to actually be able to turn into story, while there might not be that much information on micronations. So yeah "Mex has drug problems, narcos and whatnot", "middle east nations have lots of wars and terrorism" but HELLO! Hetalia was first based of WWI and WWII!!! Wars!!, problems among countries, stuff that (in reality) ain't sweet and peaceful at all. Of course, I'm not saying Himaruya should include narcos and terrorism in his manga just cause he wants to add characters (I actually think that would be horrible), but these big, old countries have a lot of background that could turn them into really interesting characters (I personally want to see Argentina, Mexico and all those south American countries XP) Not to mention these countries have a lot of relations with the actual Hetalia countries (Spain and his thousand children/little siblings, England too, the US with the latin american, etc etc)
