!colspan=2|In fanwork, the East Asian nations are typically portrayed as a [[Five-Man Band]] as well:

|[[The Hero]]||China (Switches from [[The Chick]] to this since he's the eldest of the group and the others's [[Parental Substitute]])

|-
|[[The Lancer]]||Lt. Riza Hawkeye (is always by Mustang's side, serving as his sole confidant - she is also the highest ranked besides Mustang, and generally level-headed where the other guys are completely lost. She also keeps Mustang on track and serves as his bodyguard on occasion. Comes close to being Mustangs [[Battle Butler]].)
|-
|[[The Big Guy]]||Lt. Jean Havoc (It seems Breda would be, but Havoc is the most experienced (aside from Hawkeye and Mustang) in combat. Serves more in this capacity in the manga then the anime, in the anime he serves as more of the team butt monkey or even the Chick then anything else.)
|-
|[[The Smart Guy]]||Lt Heymans Breda, WO Vato Falman (He looks like the big guy, but truth is Breda is a tactical genius, though this is more an informed ability then anything else. He often does the espionage work for Mustang, including picking up Dr Marcoh, supervising illegal border crossings, and interrogating Maria Ross. Warrant Officer Falman might also count considering he has a photographic memory and a more 'Spock' like manner.)
|-
|[[Tagalong Kid]]||Master Sergeant Kain Fuery (He's the techie, almost useless at fighting, and has the lowest rank of all the assembled team. He'd be the smart guy, except Breda and Falman are much smarter then he is. Often gets in the way when fighting breaks out.)
