Hm...I suppose there is a correlation between hair curls and the strength of the nation. But then again, Grandpa Rome had a plethora of curls sticking out his hair, and he was a world power before he fell.

I like to see the hair curls as unique features that can always be related to specific characters (I can't imagine the Italy brothers, Austria, and Korea lacking their curls.)

Then again, maybe Himaruya's like Italy (nobody knows what goes inside his mind XD)
