At the end of the day, they are intended to be attractive. The artist has made a choice to give them all conventionally attractive features in the face and body, that particularly cater to a western male gaze. That is all that can be said for it. Alright, the creator was NB or lesbian or something... but they have something to gain from things going viral, and it is pretty clear what qualities of this post drive its engagement.

Their investment in designing them like this is because they're a lesbian who's attracted to women, they made it horny because it's horny and that's ok actually. Well, I kind of agree personifying nation states in a horny way is weird. But it's the personification of a nation state part and not the horny part that's the issue there. I must emerge from hibernation sooner than I thought.
