Poland.
Many people have asked for Poland, and it's the country behind the Country Balls craze, from what I remember (it was called 'Poland and friends' here in Russia).
A small Slavic country in the Eastern Europe. A relative of Russia, Ukraine, Czech Republic, and other Slavs.
He's a noble Winged Hussar on a literally war-torn horse. The poor thing was kicked, slashed, blown up, torn to pieces, devoured and annihilated. It came back angrier and cybernetically augmented from the fires of hell, since "Poland Is Not Yet Lost" (that's the anthem's English name, btw).
As for the rider himself, even though he's good with his weapons, he's not that big and strong, not anymore at least. Back in the day, though, he and his Lithuanian bro could kick anyone to kingdom come, which is exactly what they did, angering a lot of wrong countries/people along the way, who eventually took revenge. Time and time again. Painfully. His mighty steed was torn to shreds, his lands were occupied, his riches were no more.
Things only went downhill from there, as is customary, when you are torn to pieces without much power to do anything. Russia, Austria and Germany became the new masters. Poland rebelled several times, but always failed. France tried to help, but traditionally failed. USA tried to help, and actually scored! Gaining independence was invigorating enough to even kick away Russia with her crazy new Red ideas. But shortly after, Germany went berserk again, and cowardly France with traitorous England pretended not to see it. Red Russia came flooding, and everyone pretended not to see again. Miraculously, though, Red Russia has withered, leaving Poland beaten, twitchy, drunk and, finally, free...
Due to his rich life experience, Poland became moody, border-conscious and paranoid. Everyone can be the enemy, every shadow conceals the next invasion. Except for Hungary, he's the new bro. Everyone else are traitorous bloodthirsty ****ing kurwas!
