Does someone know where to find them?
Wow! It's moedicational! ^^
If other books would have moe characters like this, if would be more fun to learn.
Where's Indonesia? I see Malaysia and Singapore, but where is Indonesia?
Below China, I believe. I'm not sure, I thought it was India but it's written "INDO".
Indo is India...
Somebody please tell me that there's Czech Republic.
Upper right of right page
"チェコ"
I'd so buy this if I knew where to get my hands on a translated copy.
whose the blonde (or pink hair) with an eyepatch in 1st picture?
Sweden
"The rest:" fuck, made me think 'bout needless' OP.
Will somebody confirm if the Republic of the Philippines is there....
It's below japan.
Thanks.... She's wearing spanish colonial costume... Not "Maria Clara" but some like "Donya...." Uh? Who was that fat lady in Noli Me Tangere? The one with a fake doctor as a husband?
Her name is Doña Victorina, a native who is a European wannabe and she is the wife of Don Tiburcio de Espadaña, a quack doctor from the Spanish mainland.
Well, I'm glad to say that her character is very similar to every Filipinos who despise their own culture and race for a stupid reason.
Despite of all these, they still fail to become something 'foreign' just like weeaboos who couldn't pronounce and write Nihongo properly. =)

LOL! That's true.... Japan does have points that our country don't. What's with the war-freaked muslim infestation, rebel communist party and corrupt shorty government official....
Hope someone scan this LOL!
Anyone DL-link?
Wow though N. Korea's girl is a soldier, still looks pretty awesome
American one fails, her nose isn't nearly big enough for a Japanese characterisation.
The philippines looks like a beauty
whoever buys this book better post fucking scans!
SCANS NAO!
North Korea "a self-willed in trouble Wagamama chan"
I kinda wanna see the rest.It seems interesting.

It's there as
ペルー
Though I am not sure what she is wearing.
USA IS NUMBER ONE!! ^_^
I want this book. I want it so bad.
I see Malaysia but no Indonesia Q_Q
I need scans!!!
I'm surprised that the Philippines didn't have a censored loli.
And that's a pretty good likeness of George Washington. I'm glad they didn't use any recent presidents because they suck.
Yeah, she's cute but I can't make out what she looks like.
Yeah!!! They have an Mexican Moe!!!
(The third one from Area 4, after America and Canada)
Chinga, ya vamos como 3 que queremos ver la foto de México ¬__¬
MORE SCANS NOW!!!!
hahahahaa.. *snort*
Korea looks like she's wearing a balloon. <_<;;
Theres never a Philippines in these geography books. Whenever there is, its just some two-page section
I agree! They always give importance to countries with high resources like The UAE or such....
Idiot fuck. The Philippines is included in the geography book.
Who could miss the Philippines?
damn scans plz
If only this book could bring world peace.
... Come to think of it, anyone else thinking of a Macross F moment?
I wish it could but most people said hetalia is world peace. -sigh-

I WANT SCANSSSSSS
I want scans and links now and right fucking NOW
Sold!
Just someone please,PLEASE tell me which one is my beloved country,Colombia? (this coming from a female)
Got to see, finally, what our country's girl in this book is..Surprisingly it's not what most of us expected and somehow tells quite a tale on how the world sees us.
I would provide a screenshot but the image seems pron-o
The Philippine girl I mean
Does anyone has a scan of philippines?
Thank goodness this is not like that awful Hetalia where anime stereotypes are more important than national stereotypes.
woah i need scans!
are there rly none in the interwebz?
Yeh, what's up with that?
"Some insignificant European country"
Lol, obviously a typical jealous, fat Americunt.
I love reading the comments nationalists.
:3
such a warped view of britain... lol...
I shall fap to the world's nations...
so it's Hetalia.
NEED SCANS NOW.
It is sick and arrogant to describe the country by an ilustration based on its popculture. In that case Japan should be viewed as a school girl with a pantsu loaded with vibros and erotic toys, with moe geasture like V...
WE DEMAND PORANDO MOE!
Agreed!
Almost all of them are cute...!
I wonder how some figure out that Philippines wearing a donya costume, coz I could only see her head.
Sadly, she doesn't
Filipina-tan!
Why does some use -tan and not -san?
because -tan is the cuter form of -chan
Honestly, I don't know who'd you guy saw the Philippines' girl here. I just see the head below Japan's as the other guy said but who'd you see her outfit?
Try to magnify with photoshop and search for our traditional costumes....
Any other place I could order this? Hoping JList or something has it...
I lol'd at the South Korea page XDD
The insignificant European country takes the cake as the most moe since she's a maid, and second best would be America. Also, they got South Korea's traditional dress wrong...
Still looks damn cute, I'd do her if I wasn't a girl.
Because you'd use this book as a reference right?
Oh, there is Peru in an outfit I can't recognize...
I think it's a ñusta loli.
so u hate britain huh, but the maid was cute!
because stereotypes are better with moe(?)
I can't wait to know how fucking inaccurate this thing is.
America... wat?
Is there a single girl for the whole continent?
When the Japanese (and many other countries) say "America" or "American" they are referring to the United States of America and its citizens.
Heck, many Americans refer to themselves that way (which has always seemed egotistical to me).
I always thought it was completely retarded since America is a whole fucking continent, but try telling that to the "Americans" and they'll go "hur hru no it's a country", believe me I tried.
Well if you're being sarcastic it's lost on me, but to most japanese アメリカ=U.S.A. because united states of america is shortened to just america they call the other countries by their names, but united states of america would be as unreasonable for a japanese person to say, also people don't say "he is from the U.S.A." (we are called americans not U.S.A.ians) almost no one says U.S.A. america is the used term.
Don't start complaining. It's because of YOU, on the US call yourselves that, even though AMERICA is the whole freaking continent.
When other people in this continent refer to themselves as Americans on other countries, they usually think we're from your country. Quite an annoyance for many.
Which is why I now wear "America is a continent, not that egotistical country" on my T-Shirts in different languages. =P
"maybe you're just pissed that the U.S.A. is better than your country."
Not better, just more famous...
I always thought non-americans called us *insert insult here* americans. Also, I was taught there is north america and south america, you know 2 different continents, and since when do people say "I'm from *insert continent here*" most people say "I'm from *insert country here*" using a continent instead is too vague and pointless. Which usually leads to people being identified as whatever is the most well-known country of that continent which in turn pisses people off (Ex. New Zealander identified as Austrailian or Japanese identified as Chinese,) people don't like being identified as the wrong nationality so they say what country they are from you arrogant twat. So if you don't like being called american say you're canadian (the word america isn't in canadian) maybe you're just pissed that the U.S.A. is better than your country.
You forgot Central America, dumbass. And no, America is ONE single continent, not two (it's not a country either).
I don't give much thought to it since we're all used to it already, but it doesn't excuse ignorance of any kind. So please try to shut up when you don't know what the fuck you're talking about, would make you look less of a retard.
Actually they are six.
1)America
2)Europe
3)Africa
4)Asia
5)Antarctica
6)Oceania
But what you are taught depends from where you are from.
The seven-continent model is usually taught in China and most English-speaking countries. The six-continent combined-Eurasia model is preferred by the geographic community, Russia, the former states of the USSR, and Japan. The six-continent combined-America model is taught in Latin America, and some parts of Europe including Greece, Portugal, Spain and Italy. This model may be taught to include only the five inhabited continents (excluding Antarctica)— as depicted in the Olympic logo
The names Oceania or Australasia are sometimes used in place of Australia. For example, the Atlas of Canada names Oceania,as does the model taught in Latin America and Iberia.
There are different models of dividing the continents, so maybe this is an issue of miscommunication. A lot of people learn the 7 continent model, which divides North and South America, meaning there is no one "American" continent. Aside from that, our full title is the United States of America, which is logically shortened to America. I'm sorry this bothers so many people. It seems quite trivial to me.
How is america one continent North and South America are barely even connected you twat (Panama is how small with a canal running through it) and central america is too small to be a continent where as North and South America are two different continents. If India is considered a sub-continent, which it is, North and South America are definitely separate continents. They are too large and barely connected, unless you're going to say Europe and Asia are one continent (which would be even more retarded) just STFU. I can break it down for you to understand NA (commonly used in every country) = North America. Meaning not south but North America as in two different continents. I'll give an example FF XIII NA/EU release date is 3/9/10 as in it won't be released in South America on 3/9/10 only the NA/EU is 3/9/10. Also, if you really want to say you're from the American continents say "I'm from the Americas." Not "I'm american ." U.S.A. stands for United States of AMERICA. So were are called americans.
Five? I was always taught it's seven.
1) North America
2) South America
3) Antarctica
4) Africa
5) Europe
6) Asia
7) Australia
The only way you could get five is if you put the Americas together and Europe and Asia together.
I'm glad I didn't go to the retarded arrogant "North American" schools where they teach you that America is two separate continents, what the fuck.
There are FIVE fucking continents in the whole world, if you love to stroke your ego claiming that there are two americas then be my fucking guest.
It's not the rest of the world's fault that the other NA countries are too stupid to join the US.
