1) What country are you from?
Argentina.

2) Was your country already made a character of Hetalia?
No. Not yet, at least..*hopes*

3) If it was, how fans in your country reacted to that personification? Do you guys like it or is there something you would like to change in it?
---

4) If not, is there an ‘official’ OC that was made in your fandom in place of your missing country? How does it looks like, how does it reflect upon your country's features?
There are A LOT of (Latin American) OCs, but only two or three that are 'fan-official'. The one i don't like much has blond hair (we're *not* mostly blond, really..). At least from what i can remember, the 'official' OCs do not reflect much of the country as a whole but more of the capital city, wich honestly i don't think it's fair, but that's a world-wide misconception of Argentina, and at the moment i can't remember if the authors of said OCs are Argentinians or not.

5) Can you define who is the most popular character of Hetalia in your country?
The sames as everywhere else, i mean, Axis and Allies. Also Sweden, Finland and Prussia, and some of the Asians ( China and Hong Kong, mostly)

6) What about the pairings? Is there any pairings that seems to be liked by the most of people in your country or is it very divided?
SwedenxFinland, and some Asians pairing is what i've seen most, maybe some USUK, but i wouldn't know for sure..

7) What is the most common view on the character of Poland? Is the Feliks, how he was created by the author, easily accepted?
I don't know about others, but among my group of Hetalia-fans friends, he is easily accepted xD

8) How does the fandom in your country works? Do you have any particular site or a forum that most of fans seem to use? Can you tell how many Hetalia fans, approximately, there is in your country?
I honestly have no idea. I got in this fandom a bit late, so i think DRAMA has already divided the waters, and there are like two or three different groups. As for the site/forum thing, i think there's something on Facebook ._. , and like in other places fans gather for Hetalia Day, and cosplay at cons, that kind of stuff..

9) Is Hetalia seen more of a humorous manga that shouldn’t be taken seriously? Is many people trying to apply actual historical meaning to it?
I honestly don't think anybody here would take it seriously.
Actual historical stuff appears when making jokes and roleplaying/cosplaying mostly..

10) Is there any popular memes (for example: Iceland's white boots, Hotland’s…pardon me, Netherlands’ tulips etc.), sayings, tags that you see as common only in your country?
The word 'awesome' is overused. From the Hetalia-fans group of friends i'm in, we normally refer to the characters like "the Swede, the Finn, the Spanish", etc. We call Hong Kong 'the Chinglish' for obvious reasons, and also change the characters names to things more Spanish-like ( so Alfred is Alfredo, Arthur is Arturo, ...Berwald is Berwaldo XD)
About Hotland/Netherlands and his tulips, well, there's a brand of condoms named 'Tulipán' (tulip) so that's a common joke too xD..
