USA: Mickey Mouse
Japan: Godzilla
UK: Sherlock Holmes
France: Hunchback of Notre Dame
Most of the ones I immediately think of for other countries are the product of American or other foreign creators. Can we compile a list of 200+ such fictional characters?
Spain: Don Juan or Don Quijote, I leave that to others to decide
Switzerland: Heidi
Belgium: Tintin (or perhaps Hercule Poirot. I would vote for Tintin).
Germany: the Struwwelpeter
I disagree on France and say: Fantômas instead
