===Stereotypes===
   −
In the comics, many things and peoples Asterix and Obelix encounter are exaggerated copies of 20th century things. For example, the phlegmatic British in ''[[Asterix in Britain]]'' drive chariots on the left side of the road, drink warm [[beer]] or hot water with milk (before Asterix brought [[tea]] to [[Britain]]), and serve all their food with mint sauce. Belgians are shown as hearty and athletic, consuming huge amounts of beer and food. The [[Goths]] are unscrupulous and imperialistic, wearing helmets similar to those worn by [[Germany|Germans]] during [[World War 1]].

Other elements are also satirized, including paintings, television shows, and 20th century characters. For instance, Britains most famous musicians look remarkably like the [[Beatles]].
