What are CountryBalls?
Polandball, also known as countryballs, refers to user-generated visual art, typically manifesting as online comics, where countries are personified as (typically) spherical personas decorated with their country's flag, interacting in often broken English (with the exception of countryballs that speak English natively), usually with regional and/or national variations (e.g. France's Engrish is interspersed with French words). The characters poke fun at national stereotypes and international relations, as well as historical conflicts. Countryballs have also been used in videos and comics involving alternate and speculative history. It is an Internet meme which originated on the /int/ board of German imageboard Krautchan.net in the latter half of 2009.

I think that’s just how they always are (I’m sorta familiar with these, but not exactly really into it or anything)
I’ve seen the upside down Poland and the cube Israel (though never transparent). Also poor Singapore
EDIT: asked someone about this and the response was “ because he just is”
So I guess I was right?
