Kugelmugel a micronation located in Austria. He is an artist who Austria describes as being eccentric. He was seen in his debut hugging his knees and pondering whether revolution and Baumkuchen are art, and seems to believe many things are art, as he suddenly exclaims that declaring his independence is art as well. He also shows a desire to make things more artistic as well, such as when he asks to make his home bigger for that reason. He also once competed with Ladonia in making a clay deer that he deemed a more artistic version of what Ladonia had just made. It also is stated that "If it doesn’t register on his art sensor, his body rejects it."

His demeanor is shown to make other characters uncomfortable, such as when Sealand, Seborga, and Wy decide to avoid him after witnessing one of his outbursts. Germany describes him as "difficult to deal with" while Switzerland says he has a "dangerous aura" radiating from him. In a blog post it is stated that Kugelmugel and Iceland may be alike due to their similar appearances, but that if they were to spend time together Iceland would be thoroughly ordered around.

Kugelmugel's official debut

Kugelmugel's debut in the anime is on It's a Pandora Box of Countries! - First Part, It's A Pandora Of Countries ~Part 1 where Sealand, Wy and Seborga are approaching other micronations to offer them to join their group to the UN.

Kugelmugel is the first micronation they come across. He is sitting in a thinking position on a bench just down an Austrian road. He is pondering about whether declaring independence, Baumkuchen and revolution are art and later when the micronations try to communicate with him, he begins to conclude that everything is art in a whimsical way, clearly indicating that he isn't aware of the micronations' presences.

They part ways quickly and left him to his own thoughts. However, they still let him to join them alongside the other micronations they sought for.

Trivia[]

  • Despite Kugelmugel being a male, in Volume 6 of the Hetalia manga he is often referred to with gender neutral terms in the Hetascanlations translations.
  • The real Kugelmugel is technically not a micronation anymore but has been adopted by the city of Vienna as a tourist attraction, hence why the character still exists.
