Reichtangle

Reichtangle (Russian: Рейхугольник, Reykhugol'nik) is one of the characters in Countryballs. He is the embodiment of rebel Germany, to which the spirit of the Reich returned. Often called the Fourth Reich.

Before the events of the second season of Countryballs, he did not play a special role and almost never appeared (except for the constant intro Countryballs, where he plays one of the main roles, but did not appear in the screensaver of episode 11). He was the main antagonist of the first five episodes of the second season.

Overview
According to the canons of the Countryballs genre, Reichtangle has the shape of a vertical flat rectangle. Eyes are irremovable white dots.

The flag is quite simple. This is a tricolor of black, white and red (top to bottom). Because of the same flags, the Reich is very often confused with the German Empire, although this is not the case. The white pupils are on the black stripe of the flag, which makes the Reichal more creepy and sinister.

In the first season, the Reich was small. Of course, it was higher than most countries, but still its size was insignificant. In the second season, the rebel Germany rose to colossal size. His height exceeded the highest skyscrapers.

Appearances
Reichtangle is the second main character in each intro on the channel (except for the intro in episode 11). In the story, the intro Reich pursued Poland, which had just completed the rocket, around the world until Poland knocked on him own rocket and flew into space. Initially, there was no rocket, and at the end Poland crashed into letters. In the current intro, Reichtangle does not chase Poland, and he scares him and jumps into a rocket.

There is a controversial situation in the history of Belarus when it is not clear exactly who it is - Reichtangle or the German Empire. In the credits, the character is named by the German Empire. This is also confirmed by the fact that in the video he attacks Belarus. However, Reichtangle is depicted in the form of a ball when the video Reichtangle is represented by a rectangle.

After a long period of time, he appears in “Took binoculars”, where he intersects with Poland at sea after the crash of Titanic 2 and wants to kill him.

Then he appears in the "stem" from the episode “Bombs”. Appears in the "stem" intro, where he chases Poland in unnatural animation (the whole episode is made in such animation). He appeared several times instead of Germany for a second in the second scene.

In the second season, a whole story is dedicated to the Reichtangle, called Reich, where he is the main antagonist.

Appears in the first episode “Reich: the beginning”. Poland hotly called his boss Germany a Nazi, he froze and cried, remembering the past, and then his pupils suddenly became small, his body became rectangular and his grew in size. Reichtangle destroyed the European Union building, the house of Ireland and many other buildings. In the end, the Reich grew over skyscrapers.

In “Brotherhood”, he crushed the EU building, a crowd of countries that did not understand anything gathered in front of him. At first, everyone stood and occasionally talked. But when Reichtangle lifted Spain from the debris and killed him, everyone panicked (except Catalonia). He didn't appear in the episode again.

In “First rebuff, the Starch Brotherhood, which includes Belarus, Latvia and Ireland, discussed about Reichtangle and prepares their attack on him. The countries of the Starch Brotherhood decided to use their weapons against the Reich. Ireland took a lucky clover, Belarus first took the Blubatower-3000, but then, seeing that Latvia had not yet had time to fix his combat robot, he gave him his weapons. Belarus itself dug Boris Bulbosaurus from a bed allegedly contaminated with radiation.

The Reich continued to destroy buildings. He grabbed the skyscraper and broke it into two halves. In one half he threw off a lot of balls and eventually destroyed both pieces of the building, hitting them against each other. Suddenly he began to be bitten by Bulbosaurus Boris, Latvia shot him with Bulbatower, and Ireland launched Celtic magic at him. However, this did no damage to the Reich, and he had already begun to raise to kill them, but his attention was distracted by the Giant Colorado Beetle. He jumped out of nowhere, and the Reich released Krakhmaltsev and Boris for a second. The countries were immediately going to flee, but Belarus sees that Boris wants to kill the Giant Colorado beetle, screams not to go there, and wants to save him, but Latvia literally drag him away. Boris overturns the Beetle and hits him on one of the buildings, but he suddenly falls on Boris from above and eats him. Belarus, seeing this, is crying.

In the evening, Austria founded a new religion "Reichianism" in honor of the Reich to appease his thirst for blood. All countries supported Austria and asked "their master" what he wanted. The Reich quietly replied: "I want Poland..." Then everyone approached a country more like Monaco than Poland and surrounded it, but the Giant Colorado beetle hit the building, and it collapsed, killing Poland. Then the Reich said, "I want to destroy you all!..."

In “Escape”, Reichtangle began to destroy government buildings of dangerous countries. The Reich destroyed the White House and the building of the Russian government, destroying the "big red buttons" that Russia and the United States tried to find. Russia wants to revive the USSR, but no country supports it. Also, according to the classics of the genre, Estonia only now comes that Germany has become huge, and, screaming, is running away.

The next day, the Reich continued to destroy the buildings. Suddenly he saw Chad, Kenya and Uganda poking their spears at him and crushed them. Then Japan decided to defeat the villain. Japan greeted his "ally" and shouting "For the glory of Nippon!" jumped with a sword on the Reich, but did not cause any damage to him, and he fell to the ground. Then he decided to write down the name of Reichtangle in his Death Note, but did not have time, because he was captured by a Giant Colorado beetle.

In “Apocalypse”, Syria, Iraq and ISIS tried to stop Reichtangle. The latter rose right in front of the Reich, but did not deal any damage to him, but only stained with his blood. Later, Russia wanted to release the Omsk bird out of the cage to defeat the Reich, but Omich said that GI was his friend. The Reichagon provided Omich with one skyscraper for destruction. Later, the Reich and Omsk see the charlatan Austria, who profited from his religion. At the end, the Reich seized Austria and said, "Destroy everyone..."

Characteristics
It is quite difficult to recognize the deep nature of Reichtangle, as he is a rather mysterious character. He is always aggressive, his only goal in his life is to enslave the world. He doesn't spare anyone. It was known that there was only one way to appease the thirst for the blood of Reichtangle: to give Poland to Reichtangle (First Rebuff). In general, Reichtangle is not indifferent to Poland, because he almost always haunts him (all the intro except episode 11, “Took binoculars”). At the death of Poland, Reichtangle will continue to bring chaos to this world.

He is so obsessed with destroying the world that it becomes entertainment for him. The Reich likes to break into pieces of skyscrapers and torment those praying for mercy countries that will sooner or later fall before the Reich. He likes to carry the apocalypse so much that he does it quite slowly. He likes to look at panicking countries, at pathetic attempts to stop him. He knows that he will win soon and no one will stop him.

The Reich himself has enormous power. In addition to his height, he has increased strength. He breaks buildings like pencils, lifts them like a ball. Destroys everything in his path. He doesn't move fast, but that doesn't prevent him from doing his business. Very durable. The Starch Brotherhood forces did not cause any damage to him. Not to mention Japan and Africans. Smart. He knew that the nuclear powers would want to destroy him with their nuclear weapons and destroyed government buildings, along with red buttons. And in the last episode about the Reich, it turned out that he still has the ability to shoot all lasers from the eyes. It was destroyed only by the clumsiness of Poland.

Poland
Reichtangle is a sworn enemy and the strongest fear of Poland. This can be seen in the Countryballs screensavers where Reichtangle is chasing Poland around the world.

Omsk bird
Omsk bird is the main root for him, in “Apocalypse”, he began to help break the city with Reichtangle.
