Line 6:
* There are shippings including characters who ''don't exist'' in canon, but have the potential to exist, like Portugal, Israel, and Mexico.
* Canada, being the [[Ensemble Darkhorse]] that he is, gets this quite a bit. Canada/Prussia is based off a single piece of dialogue involving an April Fool's joke and maple syrup, and Canada/Ukraine and Canada/Holland are popular due to the aforementioned history classes, even though he has yet to receive a strip with either one of them.
** There was this [
* Japan gets this a lot in the Japanese fandom as the main [[Launcher of a Thousand Ships]] there. Japan/Taiwan is fairly popular because of real-life history and the popular [[Fanon]] theory that Taiwan was engaged/married to Japan during her stay at his place, even though Taiwan's canon appearances so far have been exclusively with China. Japan/Prussia is even ''more'' popular, even though they don't have much real-life history together and haven't interacted even once in the strips. There are a lot more examples, but these two stand out the most for being in the top five pairings for Japan on [[Pixiv]], beating out more obvious ships like Japan/Greece, Japan/England, Japan/America or Japan/Italy.
** There ''is'' a little more canon support for Japan/Taiwan now, since the beginning of the "Ilha Formosa" strip has Taiwan cheerfully trying to read a not really thrilled Japan's fortune. Then ''[[Hetaween 2011]]'' has Taiwan choosing her costume (as the Japanese virtual idol ''Silverlight'') so Japan could see her on it. Whether that falls in [[Ship Tease]] or not is largely in the eye of the beholder.
Line 15:
* Estonia/Ukraine, too. There's only been a single tiny doodle of them made by Himaruya, paired with some info on them being both in the Gakuen universe's choir club. J-Fen has taken to shipping them quite a bit.
** Again, the fourth manga volume caught up on this. Some parts of the Gakuen-based strip focus in the choir club, and it ''does'' show them interacting.
* France/Germany also has what some might consider a surprisingly large base considering the fact that France and Germany aren't seen interacting that often, and taking into account the time and setting of the main story, obviously not positively (though of course [[Widget Series|APH is APH]]). The ship seems to stem largely from their modern day interactions, particularly their involvement in the EU. The G8 strip, which acknowledges this with [https://web.archive.org/web/20120319012941/http://aph.starry-sky.com/blog-entry-657-2.html a theatrically hurt France arguing with the seemingly-henpecked Germany in a amusing manner], was written and drawn after the shipping base had been firmly established, however.
* America/Romano is popular enough to have a fairly active [http://hold-the-tomato.livejournal.com/ livejournal community] even though the two have shared little to no screen time together.
* Latvia and Liechtenstein have had no screen time together, but it appears that, for some, the adorableness of this [[Moe Couplet]] was too great to resist. They have a ''deviantART club''.
