England has messy, short blond hair and green eyes. According to France, he's rather slender. He dresses in a green military uniform, although Himaruya has stated that he dresses smart casual most of the time, and like a punk when he's out for fun. His eyebrows are very thick and prominent, despite that he apparently trims them. They are a trait that is shared by his younger brother Sealand, as well as Australia, Hong Kong, Wy, and India. He also happens to be the same height as France. Personality and Interests England is a fanciful, blunt, obstinate former pirate who used to torment Spain. In modern times he claims to be a gentleman, however he is cynical, sharp-tongued, prone to rough speech and yearns for the golden years. He often uses British vocabulary, such as 'bloody' and 'git'. He is noted for being horrible at cooking which has caused America, his former charge, to have "bad" taste in food. England is also, apparently, the "king of losing things", and France has described him as "somehow extremely useless when it comes to matters not pertaining to himself or America". He can be described as "spacey" because of his strong belief in magic, spirits, fairies, and various other fantasy-related creatures.

He also happens to have fantasy friends, such as a flying bunny, unicorns, fairies, gnomes, and Captain Hook, but oddly enough he did not believe in Santa Claus until Finland came a brought them present. Despite this, England often ridicules America's belief in aliens and Tony. According to the author's notes, England's interests include: embroidery, craftsmanship, literature, rock music, and giving scathing criticisms to America's movies. He does not know how to express himself, leading to others often misunderstanding him. He is also depicted as being self-deprecating or tsundere. Despite his cynical, realistic view on the world, he is said to be a romanticist. When drunk, his personality will change from that of a gentleman to a bitter and violent delinquent. Also, every year when the Fourth of July comes around, his condition collapses. According to a blog post, the island nation and former pirate may not be able to swim. This would be a reference to English people in movies, and possibly to that, historically, many pirates could not swim. It has been mentioned that England has brothers, one representing Scotland, and the others presumably Wales and Northern Ireland, who hate him and used to drive him away with stones and arrows when he was a child, and even went as far as to mail him curses
