FINALLY someone who doesn't portray Finland as a weak little moe or Russia as Mr. Big Bad and Conqueror of All. Also, I LOVED that portrayal of the bombing of Pearl Harbor.
It made me shed a tear when Prussia and Germany hugged and reunited, then Prussia got on his shoulders XD But seriously wtf that Germany cosplayer is hella strong, he be carrying everyone away!!!
No matter what, the building of the Berlin Wall makes me terribly sad (almost to the point of tears) and the fall of the Berlin Wall makes me cry. It's my favorite point in history and it's so sad to me.
I completely understand that the use of the flag might offend certain people, and that's why we tried using it as little as possible. My apologies if the the use of the flag seemed distasteful and/or offending. -nukkelapsi, aka France of the performance
Right when Sweden started dancing, I began to laugh like a moron.. I couldn't handle my self- and when Finland came in after Russia's moment, Oh lord I laughed so hard-
This was too perfect in its portrayal, the wars were horrible but they did a good job presenting it to us. I especially loved when the Berlin Wall fell
Honestly Hetalia is the reason why I fell so in love with History, if it wasn't for the anime I would've never realized how beautiful the world around us truly is. Also *That Germany actor is hecking great*
To put it simply, you guys are amazing. I am completely in awe of your work and cosplay. I love what you've done, and I hope to someday be as good as you guys.
VERY AWESOME!!!!!!! I knew a lot of it, since I've learned about a bunch of American history and all of the World Wars, but I also learned new things! You guys did an very good job. Congrats! Educational yet fun to watch!!
OMG, Codplays like this want me to stay with the Hetalia Fandom forever. This is so Epuc and Awesome!!! *brokes the Like button* I really loveeeee it sooo much >_< This video almost made me cry.. I feel like Alfred, England and the others are real people and have gone through a lot of wars (bloody wars) but ended in peace at the end
This was so beautifully done!!! From start to finish with the costumes and the skit!!! The final moments were also enough to grip my heart. A wonderful balance of humor and serious history. BRAVO!! Though....I have to wonder....no Canada? =^.~=
I thought China was holding a literal shield, turns out to be a wok and I'm here with no words to say but trying not to laugh. And Sweden came by and I can't take anything seriously anymore-
Thank you for doing this. I really like that you guys do historical skits. I love the ending with all the flags, very beautiful. Everything was amazing
Wonderful idea and brilliant performance - I didn't often see the cosplay that was based on real historical events before, and you did it really perfectly. ...and also - I like Sweden's dance XD
That is really really awesome. It's great re-fresh of history to me, and puts a new perspectives in some minds. This is a really good video, and I love how it went through the years of history. Great from beggining to end.
I'm really glad you treated certain moments with the respect they deserved. I'm probably one of the only ones, but I actually started crying at some parts
Another magnificent Hetalia skit! it's the second one of this quality i've seen in the internet. My deep congratulations from every cosplayer, the one who got the correct info and the one who told us the story. Also, Europe from Globus, EXCELLENT choice!!! *applauses from Argentina*
It would have been hard to add everything in this performance. And well because we are Finns we talked about things concerning Finland and it's relationships.
I am now in love with you guys! xD I was about to just click away from your videos when I recognized your England from pics on DA and just HAD to stick around. I was just like "GASP! Only ONE PERSON could have eyebrows like that!" and was not disappointed! *Subscribes*
Because of this I'm in love with history! I hope I'll start getting better grades because of this! I'm like repeating this again and again... Thank you for making this! You are awesome and I am your big fan right now!
This is why I love Hetalia XD I LOLLED so hard when Germany's swastika flag fell off, heehehe! and with France telling Britain that he's freaking out when Germany sneaks up behind. Although the nuclear bombs made me a bit sad.
I like, but they did not mention the blockade of Leningrad... Probably, it is not very significant for world history... ( The city was under siege for 900 days. At the beginning of the blockade, food warehouses were burned and the ground under them was saturated with oil and sugar, people dissolved this sweet earth and ate. 125 grams of bread, bread that could consist of cellulose, soda, bran. People were exhausted to the point that sometimes they fell dead in the street, and sledges with dead bodies went around the city. In winter, people went outside to get water, cut holes, if someone fell, they did not help him, there was a risk of falling and never getting up. The city was constantly bombed, but did not give up. People were digging anti-tank pits on the outskirts while it was still possible. Children dropped lighter bombs from roofs that burned through the roofs of houses and could start a fire, and these bombs were defused on the ground. People cooked shoes, sometimes carpenter's glue, and a small crust of bread was very valuable. Military losses 332,059 killed 24,324 non-combat losses 111,142 missing Civilian losses 16,747 killed in shelling and bombing 632,253 died of starvation.) At least let it be here. People, please don't ever start a war again. A person should remain a person, not become an enemy. A person should not kill a person, children should not die. Please love each other... Hetalia taught me that any country is not its politicians, but its people. Please keep this in mind.
Stunningly brilliant and full of love for the wonderful subject of history. This is a masterpiece! (Also, how come all the most amazing Hetalia cosplays come from your region of the world? It's like you guys are made of distilled awesome... almost like Prussia!) And yes, the ABBA thing was hilariously random.
@Mamia Thanks for replying. Wow I'm impressed of the audio you made. Members of the Rintamasuunta are so very talented and very good at history. I bet you all had perfect scores in your world history class :-) Please continue on cosplaying the wonderful characters of Hetalia. I would love to see more skits like this. Adding to all this I loved how the narrator's voice sounds it sounds like something from radio shows back in the 1940's and that creates a good historical ambience of the skit...
I think besides you guys doing a GREAT job at this :) I'm very proud that you tried to keep the flags up right and from the floor. :) (Although some flags touched the ground) You guys didn't do it intentionally...there are many hetalia cosplayers who decide to use flags as capes or mats to sit on... :) very awesome
I understand your feelings and we actually discussed if we should use the flag or not. We decided to use it in the end due to historical accuracy. It is only used in (after quickly calculating) in three scenes, and is not glorified in any way. I'd also like to point out that the performance was its own independent show, and was not linked with the cosplay contest of the convention (Animecon) in any way. We should have had that in the description, and I'm sorry for the confusion.

I loved how they played "Brothers" when the wall came down and Germany and Prussia were united.
And after that, the Soviet Union fell down... *Gets chills and cries*
Someone: What is your dream history lesson?
Me: *shows this video*
Same
That's a weird question.
if only our history classes were like this...
McKenzie Gunderson u r so right
McKenzie Gunderson, True... ;-;
My history class is described by a enthusiastic italian. Thats practically my class, minus the performancing but same amount of entertainment.
Right
McKenzie Gunderson if so they would they would teach you wrong
History is more interesting because of Hetalia!
Luna Nekomata i agree
Luna Nekomata America, England, & the rest of the countries: WE AGREE
Luna Nekomata Austria: I agree very much

It made me shed a tear when Prussia and Germany hugged and reunited, then Prussia got on his shoulders XD But seriously wtf that Germany cosplayer is hella strong, he be carrying everyone away!!!
I know right :-0
Lei-Rin Yua just like the real Germany
Russia and Germany shaking hands.
That is the most awkward hand shake I eer seen.
No matter what, the building of the Berlin Wall makes me terribly sad (almost to the point of tears) and the fall of the Berlin Wall makes me cry. It's my favorite point in history and it's so sad to me.
I forgot everything my history teacher told me and now my mind is full of this.
oh my
i think i cried
so beautiful
ahhh
In social studies/history, they should play these.
I completely understand that the use of the flag might offend certain people, and that's why we tried using it as little as possible. My apologies if the the use of the flag seemed distasteful and/or offending.
-nukkelapsi, aka France of the performance
Right when Sweden started dancing, I began to laugh like a moron.. I couldn't handle my self- and when Finland came in after Russia's moment, Oh lord I laughed so hard-
Sweden really means something if ABBA, Mans Zelmerlow, and/or Petra Mede are involved.
The american way to enter the stage: 2:24
Soooo american 😂😂😂

IM DYING

And i was like
YUSSHHH AT LAST! *sobs* East&West T^T

12:55 ;D even more people clapped when Germany lifted Prussia up than when the Wall fell
Hell yes. It's more cute, if we talk about Hetalia. Of course, if it will be in real WWII... But this is Hetalia =)
This was too perfect in its portrayal, the wars were horrible but they did a good job presenting it to us. I especially loved when the Berlin Wall fell
ABBA was in
Matthias Køhler couldn't escape if I wanted to ♫
waterloo
This taught me so much about world history than any class ever would...
That is saying a lot.
Loved it! It was amazing. Btw, Prussia and Germany reuniting after the wall fell was soo cute!
Even the nazi flag noped out of there
That was amazing! Loved when they played "Brothers" when the all fell for Germany and Prussia! :)
YES FULLMETAL ALCHEMIST
When Prussia came out riding on Germany I lost my shit XD
Honestly Hetalia is the reason why I fell so in love with History, if it wasn't for the anime I would've never realized how beautiful the world around us truly is.
Also *That Germany actor is hecking great*
Im finnish and you have no idea how happy this made me ;-;
14:40 - The most beautiful flag.

Te olette täydellisiä.
Tulin vain ilmoittamaan tämän tähän.
Rintamasuunta, you taught me more than my history this year.
At 13 minutes I almost cried! That song makes me so sad every time I hear it because they play it on the sad parts of FMA
For some reason, I found the part where Russia was putting the band on China and lowkey struggled to get it past the wrist funny
In the background of the great depression scene all you hear is
FUCK YEAH
It's so beautiful! I'm in tears! Well done guys! Finland, I'm proud of you!

Mysterious Stranger Reality itself ships Rochu!

OMG THESE COSPLAYERS ARE FROM THE BE A MAN VIDEO AHHHHHHHH
This was beautifully made, and spread lots of information that some may not know about. This was fantastic!
Where is Canada? Could you not find a cosplayer, or did you forget him?
Unfortunately, we didn't have enough cosplayers!
Who's Canada??

This was perfect!!! I loved the ABBA part with sweden and when they started to play waterloo!
Nobody:
Germany: I decided that I will pick everyone I see
This was so beautifully done!!! From start to finish with the costumes and the skit!!! The final moments were also enough to grip my heart. A wonderful balance of humor and serious history. BRAVO!! Though....I have to wonder....no Canada? =^.~=
Plz tell me that i was not the only one that was crying when the Berlin wall fell and then when prussia and Germany hugged *sobs*
Tää on oikeasti auttanut mua, kun pänttäsin just tätä aikakautta.

Love the ending with Prussia riding on Germany's shoulders waving the EU and UN flags
Yes
FFU nyt vituttaa niin paljon etten katsonut hetaliaa ku olin animeconissa... ;___;
tää oli ihan mahtava !
Sigh, poor Canada. Forgotten again.
AMAZING! VIDEO THOUGH!
I thought China was holding a literal shield, turns out to be a wok and I'm here with no words to say but trying not to laugh.
And Sweden came by and I can't take anything seriously anymore-
Thank you for doing this.
I really like that you guys do historical skits.
I love the ending with all the flags, very beautiful.
Everything was amazing
This helped me in my homework lol
Wonderful idea and brilliant performance - I didn't often see the cosplay that was based on real historical events before, and you did it really perfectly.
...and also - I like Sweden's dance XD
Outstanding job to you guys! The choreography and music accompanies the story which the whole thing was absolutely amazing.
Beautiful you all did a wonderful job. Just simply amazing, the cosplays, the transitions everything! I can't even explain how awesome it is.
watching this made me understand why is the way he is. it makes me want to hug him D;
Love the history!
Oh my god I loved this so so so so so muchhh!!! Best cosplayers ever
That is really really awesome. It's great re-fresh of history to me, and puts a new perspectives in some minds. This is a really good video, and I love how it went through the years of history. Great from beggining to end.
I want every song in this video so badly! The music pulls it together so well! :D
I'm really glad you treated certain moments with the respect they deserved. I'm probably one of the only ones, but I actually started crying at some parts
This was absolutely fantastic. I love Hetalia, cosplay skits, and history, and this one was just so well done. Never stop!
Another magnificent Hetalia skit! it's the second one of this quality i've seen in the internet. My deep congratulations from every cosplayer, the one who got the correct info and the one who told us the story. Also, Europe from Globus, EXCELLENT choice!!!
*applauses from Argentina*
This is a very fun way to study history.
Hopefully teachers will use more creative methods to teach!
Lov dis!
I have history's matriculation examination this Spring and I have to THANK YOU. I laughed so hard and learned! GO FINLAND!
It would have been hard to add everything in this performance.
And well because we are Finns we talked about things concerning Finland and it's relationships.
I am now in love with you guys! xD I was about to just click away from your videos when I recognized your England from pics on DA and just HAD to stick around. I was just like "GASP! Only ONE PERSON could have eyebrows like that!" and was not disappointed! *Subscribes*
Because of this I'm in love with history! I hope I'll start getting better grades because of this! I'm like repeating this again and again... Thank you for making this! You are awesome and I am your big fan right now!
I like how the narrator didn't talk about the Rape of Nanking.
That was fucked up..
This is why I love Hetalia XD
I LOLLED so hard when Germany's swastika flag fell off, heehehe! and with France telling Britain that he's freaking out when Germany sneaks up behind.
Although the nuclear bombs made me a bit sad.
BEST THING I HAVE EVER SEEN. I love it so much you guys are amazing
The narration is in finnish :) Which is also why Finland appears more than the other smaller nations ;)
THIS IS AMAZING. AMAZING I TELL YOU.
MORE AWESOME THAN PRUSSIATHE COSPLAYS.
THE SCENES
EVERYTHING
Most beautiful cosplay I've ever seen... I can only hope to replicate your creativity and origionality... well done! *claps*
Words cannot express how awesome I think this is.

This is simply splendid, and aside from a few minor costume and prop flaws, it was perfectly acted out.

Yes if history class was like this I would be so happy
I need to send this to my teacher... this would make class awesome!
I've watched this god knows how many times.
I have made my both my parents watch this!~
They love it, this is awesome!~
I love you all, cosplayer!!! History in Hetalia is always AWESOME & TOUCHING!
I think besides you guys doing a GREAT job at this :) I'm very proud that you tried to keep the flags up right and from the floor. :) (Although some flags touched the ground) You guys didn't do it intentionally...there are many hetalia cosplayers who decide to use flags as capes or mats to sit on... :) very awesome

They just had to add to the feels with Brotherhood. The Berlin always make me cry.
There is a german song called 'Bis ans Ende der Welt'. It's lyrics always remind me of Germany and Prussia.
Prussia: flirts with Baltic nations
Baltic nations: runs away
Poland: flirts back
