If anyone's interested....
I was bored and at the same time rather intrigued by Zark and SSG's new video (the one set to Yakko Warner's "Nations of the World"), so I made a list of all the anime you can find in it. There were quite a few I could not identify, so tell me if you catch anything I didn't.
Being a geography nerd and a bit of a pain in the ass about those things, I've also pointed out where Yakko forgot to mention that a nation WAS NOT ACTUALLY A NATION!!!! And he missed quite a few actual, independent countries as well (e.g. Kiribati, Andorra, the Central African Republic, Turkmenistan).
Anyhow.....
The Nations of the World:
Note: If I give the country’s name but fail to mention an anime, it means that the character is that country’s caricature from “Hetalia: Axis Powers”.
United States of America
Canada
Mexico: Pedro from “Excel Saga”
Panama: Pedro
Haiti: Pedro
Jamaica: Looks like Pedro, but I am not sure whether it is him.
Peru: Can’t identify the characters. This appears to be a video game....
Domincan Republic: Pedro Again
Cuba
Carribean (not a country but a body of water): Nadia from “Nadia: Secret of Blue Water”
Greenland (not a country but should be): Can’t identify
El Salvador: Pedro Again
Puerto Rico (not a country): Pedro Again
Columbia: Pedro Again
Venezuela: Pedro Once Again
Honduras: Pedro Yet Again (considering the fact that too many Americans think all Latinos are Mexican, this is excellent satire).
Guyana: Character from “Revolutionary Girl Utena”
Then more “Hetalia”....
Guatemala: Pedro
Bolivia: Unknown
Argentina: Pedro
Ecuador: Pedro
Chile: Pedro, and damn straight, I’m voting for him!
Brazil: “That Man” from Excel Saga
Costa Rica: Pedro
Belize: Pedro
Nicaragua: Pedro
Bermuda (also not a country): Pedro, which, seeing as the island is mostly inhabited by Europenan immigrants, is quite ironic.
Bahamas: Hina from Live Hina
Tobago: Pedro
San Juan: (also not a country, it is in fact the capital of Puerto Rico, which is not a country either): Pedro
Paraguay: Pedro
Uruguay: Pedro
Suriname: Casca from “Berserk”
French Guiana: Can’t identify; this is from either Love Hina or Hare + Guu
Barbados: Is this from Cowboy Bebop? I can’t remember this guy for sure, but I feel like he miight have been.
Guam: Lapidus from “LOST” (not anime, but could be if the “Nadia” clip from 4 is any indication)
Then some characters from “Jungle de Ikou” do a rather suggestive dance.... > _ >
Once we get to Europe, we hit the motherload of “Hetalia” caricatures:

Hungary
Cyprus (which is effectively split in two): Is this Dragon Ball? (the little blob also looks a bit like the blob from “Ragnarok: The Animation)

Syria: from “Outlaw Star”?

Jordan: Ditto
“Both Yemens” (which have since reunited in name only): from Berserk
