Malta

Malta is a fan-made character for the series Axis Powers: Hetalia. She represents the island of Malta, officially the Republic of Malta, a small island located to the south of Sicily. Alternatively known as Emma Pasello and appears as a seventeen-year old female with brown hair and eyes.

Appearance
Emma has medium brown eye, brown hair, and pale skin. Her hair is waved and barely passes her shoulders, and she is often seen wearing some kind of pin in her hair. She wears colorful skirts and dresses, although her style is heavily influenced by Italian fashion. She doesn't like shoes and is constantly seen without them.

Personality and Interests
Emma is a very friendly person and, at times, she can be a bit naive. Her personality was heavily influenced by Ancient Greece and Ancient Rome; she's very strong-willed and will fight for what she believes, but most of the time she's very laid-back. She is very loyal and trust-worthy, so long as you don't anger her. She enjoys football and her favorite food is ross il-forn (baked pre-boiled rice in a tomato and minced meat sauce).
