Nations in the 18th and 19th century were visualized by the artists in a unique manner. They represented the nation as a person or a human being.The nations were mainly potrayed as female figures. The woman that was chosen to personify the nation was not any particular existing women in reality. It was just used as an entity to give nations a concrete form. The female figure became an allegory of the nation.

For example,
1.In France, the idea of a people's nation was underlined by a popular Christian name Marianne.Her characteristics were imbibed from those of Liberty and the Republic–the red cap, the tricolour, the cockade.
2. In Germany, Germania became the allegory of the German nation.Germania wears a crown of oak leaves, as the
German oak stands for heroism
