I've been drawing lots of countryball/polandball comics for the past year or so, I don't know why I never thought to post them here, but I will be starting today. I'm going to post 3 comics every couple days, even though I've already made a lot, I want to make the transition from finished to new comics seamless. Also, this isn't just where I'm uploading my comics, I want to bring together all the history and geography fanatics on this forum, so feel free to post funny history/geography stuff here too. If you have countryball comics you've made, even better! Feel free to post them all here!

Here is the very first comic I made back in the summer of '23. A comic version of the very beginning of this video (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f1JgIjNpZ8A) by MrSpherical, who got me interested in countryballs.
You can tell it's my very first because the flags are inaccurate and some of the facial expressions are... weird.
Also, I made the mistake of putting the EU instead of the UN even thought this was way before it existed. To be honest, the UN flag is just SUPER hard to draw, even now I try to avoid drawing it in comics.
-
Made this comic for Christmas last year right after watching National Lampoons Christmas Vacation. Comic version of this scene LOL ;D: https://youtu.be/CpJ_FUVJPko?si=tui7YXDfiudOUiYf
It's the comic that really started my regular comic making, before they were just doodles. Unfortunately, the actual paper copy doesn't exist anymore, too much damage.
Peace, please. No land is worth this much suffering for.

Nothing else to say really.

Countryball version of this short: https://youtube.com/shorts/Q5jiv3yfpGg?si=1MdcS1pQl1W2F9fP
with Russia and Belarus

Comic of this short: https://youtube.com/shorts/xdOu7Vg8Jzg?si=GVWeeVYUdme8nKC- (with some changes)
Sorry about the inaccurate Texas flag. This is still one of my older ones.
-
Ghengis Khan was just taking climate activism to a whole new level.
-
Sorry it's been so long, I kinda got sick, but now I'm gonna make up for it by posting several comics
This one was made the same day as the last one, on the same piece of paper
-
Inspired by some scenes from this oversimplified video: https://youtu.be/zqllxbPWKNI?si=41v3sQWj4JUjcRLi

Russia has really opened a can of worms
-
Will the successor to Rome claims ever end? Unfortunately, I don't think so.

Comic version of this animation: https://youtu.be/UuqLfnMx-Dc?si=g7NS50FEx13L1KUP

Illustrations I made based on some random countryball shorts I saw on YT
-
Another countryball comic based on a countryball short, pretty funny one though
-
Comic based on this really cool countryball short: https://youtube.com/shorts/zAddkMDkVK8?si=jifby3oJWMRgnBNe
-
This one is more of a poster than a comic, I think it turned out nice though
-
One of my more original comics, I really like this one because it has what I like most, geography and drawing attention to the environment
-
A parody of this iconic countryball comic with Russia and Ukraine:
https://www.reddit.com/r/polandball/comments/q5atm6/with_comrades_like_these/
-
super funny comic with lots of present-day messages/references
-
Funny story, I saw this awesome video a while back and made this comic a few days after seeing it, but I got my countries and wrote it as Denmark, but this road: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rM5oX0KbtUw is actually in Hungary.
There's also something like this in Lancaster, CA, but I've heard that it doesn't sound as good.
-
Based on one of my favorite oversimplified videos: https://youtu.be/QLq6GEiHqR8?si=SEMUOyUiTWrSYWPI
Also kinda based on this meme: https://tinyurl.com/wm4a8cha
(Not a rickroll I promise [:))
-
Oh, that's what the N in NASA stands for...
-
Definitely one of my most favorite comics I've ever made.
Admit it, we all loved this book when we were 3.
-
Yes, in most languages around the world, pineapples are called ananas, even though (for once) the English word kinda makes more sense.
Also yes, in the few centuries after the Europeans discovered the Americas, they practically worshipped the pineapple, some wealthy businessmen would even pay millions just to have one displayed in their homes.
Sorry I can't draw Spain flag well.
-
Two-part comic! Complete history of Germany, based on this short:
https://youtube.com/shorts/-P5ip4ZwUoA?si=cNWW2MRI1l61yHld
-
Part two!
-
Unfortunately, the same can't be said for SeaLand.
I imagine Vatican would then say "Is this protestant bothering you, nipote?"
-
Personally, I like this Bavarian flag (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Flag_of_Bavaria_(lozengy).svg) better, but this is an official version.
-
Yes, the ability to launch is actually called nuclear football.
-
So THAT's how it happened.
-
Honestly, you could've put guns there too.

This explains everything:

And for the 30th comic anniversary, meme state-balls!
-
Spooky scary countryballs!

We need to call and emergency meeting.
Right.
NOW.
Tried to re-create this (https://www.reddit.com/r/polandball/comments/1429fjd/suspicious_shapes/) but I wasn't good enough
-
FOR ENTERTAINMENT PURPOSES ONLY

Hey! Sorry, I removed the last three. Political commentary is not allowed on this site.
-
Sry
-
Have you considered Comic Fury for hosting your comic? https://comicfury.com/ You'll probably get more exposure than here!
-
True story: https://www.warhistoryonline.com/war-articles/finnished-stopped-soviet-mines-with-single-polka-song-played-on-repeat.html
This is how powerful Finland is, they can stop you with their voice.
-
I want to point out real briefly that it was justified in removing the comics I posted right after election day but (hopefully) not ones like these, because they don't take a specific political standpoint or give support to a specific widespread political stance/claim, it's just a general satirical commentary on the entire state of politics, not even just specifically right now.
-
The reason why comics and all the millions of Balkan memes like this work is because we know for a fact that there is a least a large number of people in the Balkans who are actually like this.
For instance, the subreddit 2balkan4you was taken down and many, many people pointed out it was because no one (especially the moderators) understood the ultra-irony that all Balkan people were aware of that's actually kind of brough them closer together in a way.
Watch for more context: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eNMwO3DywIE
-
Exact same commentary for this one as for the American & British politics video.
Also, thunder dragon empire would be AWESOME. Please, India and China, just give them some of your land so the thunder dragon empire can be a reality.
DEFINITLY not as good as the original comic, please check it out: https://www.reddit.com/r/polandball/comments/q5zx7r/one_china_two_china_red_china_blue_china/?rdt=61281

Comic Fury has nothing to with "furries". I suggested it because it's a free comic hosting platform which offers to showcase comics in a readable page-by-page format, as opposed to here where if one wants to read your pages, they have to click on every single attachment. It is also the exact opposite of corporate or algorithm-driven site if that is your concern.
The reason I do not allow real-world discussion on politics or religion is I don't want any side-taking, debate, be it civil or not, real-world concerns, stressing out, or the like on my site about cartoon foxes (and dragons).
-
Bro wrote an entire essay to apologize for their first cancelled post
LOL what a loser ;D
-
New comics finally, let's put all of what just happened behind us and return to routine uploads ;D
The Dunder Mongol paper company
-
Fun fact: Mongolia is one of the only countries I've ever heard of that asked to be annexed.
By the USSR.
On many occasions.
-
This one's just more of a meme.
-
I guess this could be a follow up to the last comic.
Explanation:
Serbia (and others like Montenegro) have two official Alphabets, Gaj's Latin and Vuk's Cyrillic which is basically Serbianized Latin and Cyrillic.
So in Gaj's Latin or basically most Latin pronounce "Pp" as "Pp", While Vuk's Cyrillic or Basically most Cyrillic pronounce "Рр" as "Rr" like "Roll"
-
Yep, they don't actually touch each other, you have to look REALLY close on a map to see it. In fact, they're only 12 miles apart, and the mountain where they nearly intersect is named "friendship peak"
-
No comment on this one, but I did just want to say that, since my work schedule is getting less and less busy it seems, comic uploads will be more frequent now.
-
And people wonder why east Asia has the world's lowest birth rates...
:-\

It has (legit, not a joke) been proven that you are 10 times more likely to be bitten by a new yorker than a shark.

I grow increasingly fearful every day that this will actually happen

Finland would be the 'kinda bad guy' character of the Nordics

My Last comic drawn with colored pencils, before I got a marker set for my brithday. Truly the end of an era.
Also, 50th comic. Wow.
Based on this video by the legendary Kaliningrad General: https://youtu.be/PY5jb9vLCtI?si=A2w-viDT1dKRDKsc
-
So that's why we're so fat.
-
Crazy that the German language has existed for thousands of years, and Britian had so many chances to get rid of the name, but it's still there. Technically "Großbritannien" means "great Britian" but that's just as commonly used.
-
I'd actually really like to see a movie where aliens showed up near the beginning of the cold war. It would definitely be very a very awkward time.
Although, it is funny that Switzerland themself was on neither side, I guess they 'broke the code'.
-
They don't call it the 'graveyard of empires' for nothing.
Based on the legendary Mr. Spherical's FIRST countryball short!

@everyone, Any idea's for X-mas comics? I have some, but I'd like to take some suggestions, it's the season of giving after all, so I'm taking requests!
(I can make about 4, maybe 5 comics in a given day)

NEW. CHRISTMAS. COMIC!!!
You didn't think I'd miss the occasion, did you?
-
God bless us, everyone.
NEW MARKER AND PENCIL SET LETS GOOOOOO

I have no words to say...

Meant to post this yesterday, we're all in 2025 together.

Poland is not messing around anymore, they're tired of being invaded so much, so now they have to be the bully.

Another Poland and Russia comic
They have released... the Polish Lithuanian Commonwealth!

Revenge of the Dutch

A fun play on words and a teaser...

Sorry I'm posting so late as opposed to usual, today's comic(at least the ending) is inspired by my 8th grade tech teacher, who visited the USSR in the late 80's for educational purposes and actually bought a watch from a local store with the hammer and sickle on it, so cool.
-
In case you're confused about this bird thing (which I am too) it's supposed to be this I guess? (https://www.polandballwiki.com/wiki/Omskbird)
Classic Austrian ambition becoming their greatest blunder.
A plumber?
An unforeseen consequences plumber?
Unforeseen consequences!?

And you thought we were over it since 1999, but now we're going to try to squeeze back in there again. Although, I think we might be too fat now.

Have time to post today on account of my entire state being frozen over and shut down.

POKEMON MENTIONED

Honestly, I still don't really understand what the LON was. I mean, I know it was kind of like the UN, but I know it definitely didn't work the same... or as well.
Sorry the eye looks horrible, I was trying to do a wink

Checkmate, America. You can never annex Greenland through a vote, even if it's rigged, because there will always be NO. DATA.

You didn't think I'd forget about Valentine's, did you?
How could I forget the middle child of holidays, between new years and my Birthday?
(Yes, this is very old, but I couldn't not post it on Valentines)
-
Personal experience warning!
My middle school had a sign on the door of the play equipment shed with a racoon and a speech bubble with the 'its free real estate' pic in it to remind kids to close the doors. I don't know about you, but I love it when teachers and schools use memes.
"Oy vey, that boy's" That's all they say, lookin' boy
You get a thumbs up, pat on the back
And a "Way to go" from your label every day, lookin' boy

I SWEAR TO GOD I DID NOT MEAN TO DRAW AUSTRALIA LIKE THAT

Why does 'British Tatooine' sound so perfect?
-
Country doesn't roll far from the tree
-
In russia, you don't pull prank, prank pull itself on you.
-
Yes, very old but still relevant. This is just their exact reaction now that Ukrainians are advancing, into Russia!
-
Seriously though, how do Germans feel about this song?
-
Based on the classic meme format, this one specifically.
Actually, does anyone know what this meme is from? Is it a sitcom? I'd like to know.
-
And full of teeth! No wonder they weren't colonized, no one wanted to wake up that towering beast.

My very first attempt at drawing the East German flag... it did NOT go well...

Yeah, a 500 to 1 K/D ratio will probably ensure your neutrality throughout the whole cold war.

Kazakstan evolves to- oh...
Should've pressed B. Although that's probably difficult with no hands.

this is what happens after seeing too many 'I can fix him, him:' memes
