The little match girl is the only character that is present in the story. The other characters appear in memories and vision. The girls is young, poor, and neglected. It is hard to imagine a more pathetic character as she is sent off alone to earn money for the family by selling the matches which is a form of begging in the Victorian Society. When it doesn't happen, she freezes to death rather than returning home to an abusive and fearful situation.

Hopes it helps you.

Answer:

The little nameless girl is the main character of the story. She comes from a poverty -ridden background. Even a pair of shoes can't be afforded for her.

Her obedience can be seen when she agrees to go out in the cold to sell the matches. Her crave for hunger, love and

warmth guided her to hallucinate the situations in the light of the matches.

She is set a perfect example of class differentiation and child abuse.
