== True Neutral ==
{{tropelist|Tropes shared by these characters include:}}
* [[Not Blood Siblings]] -- Liechtenstein and Switzerland. Of course, this also means that there's nothing really standing in the way of the obvious [[Ship Tease]] and tension between the two.
** There's also the subtext of their relationship being so close as to be borderline incestuous.
* [[Rags to Riches]] -- Both of them. On one hand Liech was this close to ''dying'' when her lands went bankrupt due to war and the Great Depression, until Swiss took her in. On the other hand, Switzerland's own economic situation was very precarious when he found and adopted Liechtenstein, for exactly the same reason. Now both countries are ''extremely'' rich, with Liechstenstein as one of the ''richest'' nations in the whole world.
* [[Sibling Yin-Yang]] -- These two, though Switzerland goes [[Chaotic Neutral]] when his [[Berserk Button]] is hit.

{{tropelist|Tropes exhibited by this character include:}}
* [[Berserk Button]]: People coming uninvited to his house.
** Also, don't be talking smack about his pajamas.
* [[Green Eyes]]
* [[Rich Bitch|Rich Jerkass]]: He's a miser, paranoid, xenophobic and trigger-happy. The only person that he is close to is his sister Liechtenstein (and formerly Austria, [[Tsundere|even though Switzerland denies it]] [[She Is Not My Girlfriend|until the cows come home]]), which shows that he might be a [[Jerk Withwith a Heart of Gold]] (only ''very'' heavy on the "jerk" part, with his [[Hair-Trigger Temper]]).
* [[She Is Not My Girlfriend|He Was Never My Heterosexual Life Partner]]: He does not like to remember that he and Austria used to be friends as children.
* [[Knight Templar Big Brother]]: Switzerland is ''very'' protective of his little sister Liechtenstein.
* [[Morality Pet]]: Who knows how much ''more'' of a jerk he would be without Liechtenstein around.
* [[Real Men Wear Pink]]: Girly pink pyjamas, that is. They're a present from Liechtenstein; she gave him the wrong ones by mistake, but he doesn't mind... because they're from ''his sister''.
* [[Relationship Voice Actor]]: His seiyuu is [[Romi Paku]] aka Edward Elric. His sister? Voiced by [[Rie Kugimiya]] aka Alphonse Elric.
* [[Self-Made Man]]: He worked himself to the top.
* [[Spell My Name Withwith an "S"]]: While his last name is undoubtedly [http://en.[wikipedia.org/wiki/:Zwingli |Zwingli]], is his first name Vash, Basch, Vasch, or what?
* [[The Gunslinger]]: His [[Weapon of Choice|Weapons Of Choice]] are several different guns, but personality-wise, he's more like a parody of the trope. Not to be confused with that ''other'' [[Trigun|Vash]], though.
* [[Trademark Favorite Food]]: Cheese. Not too susprisingly that Switz people eat most cheese in the world.
* [[Trigger Happy]]: Very much so.
* [[Tsundere]]: Switzerland is a combination of Tsun Type A and [[She Is Not My Girlfriend|He Was Never My Heterosexual Life Partner]] to Austria. [[The Gunslinger]] is especially fond of The Violent Approach (duh), going deredere ([[Kuudere|and VERY much so]]) only for Liechtenstein.
* [[Unlucky Childhood Friend]]: Towards [[Ho Yay|Austria]], arguably. Fanworks are fond of making his feelings to him [[All Love Is Unrequited|completely onesided]] ''[[Star BoardingStarboarding|and]]'' [[Star BoardingStarboarding|without possible reciprocation]].
* [[What Could Have Been]]: Himaruya had one idea for Switzerland to actually be [[Bifauxnen|a woman who dressed masculine when in uniform]], but who would wind up shocking others like Germany [[She Cleans Up Nicely|when they would see her in plain clothing.]]
** A recent blog entry (October 2011) states that he would have originally been [[Yodel Land|a girl with pigtails]] until Hima apparently saw a Swiss guy ''[[Guns in Church|out shopping with a gun]]''

{{tropelist|Tropes exhibited by this character include:}}
* [[Bifauxnen]]: While in uniform, without the ribbon.
** Although she's a little younger and cuter than the typical [[Bifauxnen]], so in her case, she might be considered a [[Cute Shotaro Boy|Cute Fauxtaro Boy]].
* [[Dying Alone]] and [[Death Byby Despair]]: Thanks to Switzerland, she barely escaped from this.
** [[I Owe You My Life]]: Predictably, Liechtenstein is very grateful to her brother and thinks he definitely saved her.
* [[Everything's Sparkly Withwith Jewelry]]: Sports a [[Nice Hat|Nice]] [[Requisite Royal Regalia|Crown]] in a few sketches and illustrations as a reference to her flag.
* [[Fan Nickname]]: She doesn't have an official human name, but some fans call her "Lili Zwingli" to bypass that. It comes from a shortening of her nation name and from the Lily flower, which is sometimes considered to be a national flower of Liechtenstein.
** Himaruya himself in a recent blog post suggested her likely human name to be Erica/Erika, Sisia, Elise, or Eva, with her possible surname Vogel.
Line 50 ⟶ 54:
* [[Green Eyes]]
* [[Hair Decorations]]: After the [[Dude Looks Like a Lady|Lady Looks Like a Dude]] incident, Switzerland buys her a hair ribbon.
* [[Hair of Gold]]
* [[Heartwarming Orphan]]: According to the published manga, the poor little girl was on her own and [[Break the Cutie|passed through]] [[Despair Event Horizon|several hardships]] before she was found and adopted by Switzerland. No mention of her "biological" parents or anybody who took care of her and her people until then.
** This happened right after [[World War I]], since [http://en.[wikipedia.org/wiki/History_of_Liechtenstein:History of Liechtenstein#Liechtenstein_during_the_World_WarsLiechtenstein during the World Wars|the union with Switzerland]] dates from 1919.
*** This could also add some [[Alternative Character Interpretation]] when one considers her relationship with (and possible abandonment by) Austria and Hungary up ''until'' then.
* [[Important Haircut]]: Liechtenstein used to have long braids. At the beginning of her first strip, she cuts said braids off to both look more like her brother and be more comfortable. The webcast episode featuring these strips actually begins with her cutting off said braids.
* [[In-Series Nickname]]: Switzerland calls her "Liechten".
** Ukraine also calls her by this on one occasion.
* [[Monochromatic Eyes]]
* [[Morality Pet]]: Who knows how much ''more'' of a jerk Switzerland would be if she wasn't around.
* [[Nice Hat]]: Sports a cute one in a chibi illustration of her [[She Cleans Up Nicely|in a nice dress]], as well as another one in the 2011 Bloodbath.
* [[Pettanko]] ([[A-Cup Angst]] version): In the [[Dude Looks Like a Lady|Lady Looks Like A Dude]] incident, when the old woman mistakes Liechtenstein for a boy, poor Liechtenstein goes [[Blue Withwith Shock]] and touches her ''very'' flat chest.
** Brought up again in the fourth manga voume, [http://hetalia.livejournal.com/11219211.html when she discusses national dresses] with the much bustier [[Gag Boobs|Ukraine]] and [[Boobs of Steel|Hungary.]]
* [[Plucky Girl]]: [[Word of God]] calls her mature and strong-willed, possibly a reference to [[Truth in Television|the country's refusal to join with the Soviet Union.]]
* [[Proper Lady]]: Has the personality traits: hardworking, mature, polite, very competent in housework, sweet and devoted to those she loves.
** In fact, she is so far the only girl to be considered as such. Just compare with either [[Tomboy|Hungary]], [[Stalker Withwith a Crush|Bela]][[Yandere|rus]] or [[Lady of War|Vietnam]]
* [[She Cleans Up Nicely]]: According to [http://himaruya.blog61.fc2.com/blog-entry-837.html this entry]. Such a pretty dress!
* [[Shipper Onon Deck]]: For Austria/Switzerland during Bloodbath 2011 apparently. She actually says she enjoys her brother talking to Austria.
* [[Teen Genius]]: Very tech-savvy, according to [[Word of God]].
* [[Tertiary Sexual Characteristics]]: Due to her, um, [[Pettanko|lack of secondary]] characteristics, Switzerland just buys her a blue hair ribbon so no one mistakes her for a boy again.
