Prussia (プロイセン, Puroisen) is a supporting character in the series Hetalia: Axis Powers. In his younger years, he is known as the Teutonic Knights and in modern day he represents the former East Germany and the present region of eastern Germany (though he remains a separate character from his younger brother and is generally only referred to as Prussia throughout the series). In 2008, Himaruya gave human names to some of the characters and he received the name Gilbert Beilschmidt (ギルベルト・バイルシュミット, Giruberuto Bairushumitto).
