On their Wagon Train to the Stars, our intrepid heroes come across a planet whose inhabitants all share a single defining characteristic. Everybody is a robot, or a gangster, or a Proud Warrior Race Guy, or an over-the-top actor, or has the same name, or wears a silly hat. To some degree, this is unavoidable; you only have so much screen time or page space to develop and explore a culture. This is especially true in episodic series where the heroes travel to a new planet each week and you have to both introduce a planet and tell a story all within a single episode. If planets are revisited, it also provides an easy way for viewers to keep track of which planet is which and remember where the story is set.
A Planet of Hats is a convenient way to make it so that the viewer's brain doesn't explode, but planet-wide monocultures seem a tad unlikely based off the best-known planet for Earthlings. Just for comparison, within the 29% of Earth's surface that's solid land, our planet hosts just under two hundred sovereign states, with an estimated 5,000 ethnicities and 7,000 living languages. There is no reason to suspect that alien life forms would be any different, but in media they are nowhere near as diverse as one might expect. If anything, aliens tend to be surprised by the amount of diversity among humans.
Earth itself is sometimes portrayed as a Planet of Hats.note And anthropologists have discovered many universal human traits that could plausibly fit the bill... though many are universal enough that it's difficult to imagine a society without them. Defining human characteristics have included "pluck", "sheer cussedness", creativity, and sometimes even "diversity", though "evil" and "stupidity" are more misanthropic answers to the question. Sometimes it's stated that Hattery is the natural state and it's humans that are aberrant, or rather that humanity's Hat is not having one.
Writers love to use the hat planet to represent controversial issues in society whenever they can. This way the show's characters can take a thinly disguised public stand on an issue that the network execs would otherwise consider too taboo to openly discuss. We can't have our heroes discussing euthanasia, but should they stumble across a Planet of Hats where everyone who gets sick is put to death, then it's okay. Eventually the plots will run out with an entire race of identical people so one or more of the species will have their hat fall off, declaring My Species Doth Protest Too Much. Alternately, the show may explore why Klingon Scientists Get No Respect. For maximum typing, the characters can also be physically uniform, as in People of Hair Color.
The Planet of Hats may also be an unintended result of a Character Exaggeration type Plot Tumor applied to an entire race, when the audience had previously only seen a single representative who the writers now wish to market. For cases where a planetary hat is extrapolated retroactively from a single character, see Planet of Copyhats.
Occasionally justified in settings with relatively convenient transportation methods. On Earth, humanity developed separate cultures while scattered across the continents in an era when few people travelled. The absence of cheap and fast transportation and communication caused populations to exchange little information with each other until they had already developed persistent cultural differences. If a like-minded group of space colonists settled an uninhabited planet, they could attempt to preserve cultural unity with the aid of mass communication, trade, and travel from day one. Less happily, a non-spacefaring planet controlled by a world-conquering empire set on centralization could perhaps also impose such a worldwide monoculture, even if the planet once had many cultures. In even more mobile settings, populations might naturally tend to "sort" themselves by moving to like-minded worlds.
Compare: Gang of Hats. Contrast: Multicultural Alien Planet. Often overlaps with Single-Species Nations. See also Rubber-Forehead Aliens, Intelligent Gerbil, Scary Dogmatic Aliens, Tribe of Priests. May result because or into Apathy Killed the Cat. If the planet's hat is being evil, it's an example of Always Chaotic Evil. Serious Business is what happens when the show's setting gets a hat. This trope in itself is a good example of Sci-Fi Writers Have No Sense of Scale. See Single-Biome Planet when the planet is unnaturally uniform physically. One-Product Planet is a subtrope, but focuses on economics rather than culture.

The computer game Spaceward Ho! gets honorable mention. It's a light turn-based strategy affair and doesn't have culture, but planet ownership is indicated by hats. A variety of cowboy hats worn by the actual planets. (Santa hats if the game is played on December 25th.)

Puella Magi Madoka Magica: No other planets are seen, but according to Kyubey, Earth's hat is having emotions, which in turn allows Magical Girls to exist. All other intelligent lifeforms in the universe are supposedly The Spock compared to humans. Unfortunately, this makes humans by far the most attractive option for exploitative energy production.

In the comedy science fiction Hoka series by Poul Anderson and Gordon R. Dickson, the Hokas' "hat" is that they are entranced by fiction. Give them a story and they will start to live it out, believing (or at least acting) as if they are in it. They have whole cities based on various periods of human history, with Ancient Rome, Victorian England, American Wild West and other places. One of them believes he is Napoleon and has an entire city of Hokas willing to follow him as leader of "France". Actually, a better way of saying it is that their hat is following tropes, as they tend to act out the trope more than reality. Luckily, they are non-violent, so they tend to just fake the wars and other violent parts.

The Neighborhood of Make-Believe segment of Mister Rogers' Neighborhood deconstructed this trope, in a child-appropriate way, with alien visitors from the Planet Purple. Everyone from this planet has purple skin and hair, they dress in identical purple clothes and speak in a monotone voice, and all the boys are named Paul and all the girls are named Pauline. They were used to illustrate how boring the world would be if everyone was the same.

Wonder Woman (1942): Back in the Golden Age before there was a shared DCU Wondy often came across planets where not only were all the inhabitants similar but also all wore the same outfit. A recurring planet in her tales was Venus, where the inhabitants were all butterfly winged women with matching outfits and rules similar to the Amazons but most of the planets she interacted with had a hat of misogyny instead.

Mass Effect: Altered Humanity: Enforced by game mechanics. Each faction gets a number of "Aspects" when they are created that represent the cultural norms of the group. Each provides a number of stat modifiers reflecting how this attitude has shaped the faction. These are considered more stereotypes and generalizations than absolute rules, however.

Shadows of the Apt: Every race in that world is a member of a hat (though to some degree this is justified, as their totem insect affects each race on a biological level). The Mantis-kinden are all lightning-fast and skilled in battle, the Flies are all cunning, extremely small and agile, Scorpions are big, bald, strong and bad-tempered, Beetles are Made of Iron and stocky, Moths are delicate and mystical, Ants are superstrong and devoid of personality and Spiders are all beautiful seducers/seductresses with an innate taste for intrigue. This gets further generalized as the races get categorized as Apt or Inapt. If a character is Apt, then they'll be technologically adept and kinda unattractive, whereas the Apt are incapable of understanding technology more advanced than a lever, are good-looking and are magically capable.

This was a major complaint in Ross's Game Dungeon's review of Deus Ex: Human Revolution: Humanity's hat in 2032 is cybernetic augmentation. There is very little casual dialogue or worldbuilding not devoted to augmentations, the impact of which was supposedly able to revive Detroit and construct a Chinese Layered Metropolis from scratch within... a couple decades from now. This is in contrast to the original Deus Ex, which explored a multitude of themes from terrorism to transhumanism, and was also much more grounded in reality compared to Human Revolution despite taking place twenty years later (i.e. cities still look pretty much the same as they do in the present, while Human Revolution is getting close to Crystal Spires and Togas territory).

Starbound: Each race as at least two components to their hats; Florans have the savage and plant-life hat, Humans currently are a race without a home planet, Glitch are stuck in the past due to an issue with programming (hence their name), Apex are ape-men who seem to follow the government strongly, Hylotl are fish people who are the most peaceful of the races, to the point of getting mockery from time to time, Avians are a strongly religious race with a heavy May Inca Tec aesthetic, and Novakids are Space Westerners with bodies composed of energy.

In Startopia, the alien races are each suited to one specific task — OK, two related tasks for the blue-collar Salthogs. Karmarama are purple four-armed hippies, that plant seeds. Turraken are two-headed nerds, that are all scientists. Sirens are sexy winged humanoids, and the only aliens in the game with obvious gender dimorphism, and they "love" others. And so on. The most specialised are the Grekka Targ, who are solely employed to run your communications gear.
The Greys are all experts in xenobiology after experimenting on all known races, so they run the sickbays. The Kasvagorians are all Proud Warrior Race Guys, making them useful only as security guards. The Zedem Monks are, well, a race of monks, whose hands have evolved to naturally be in the prayer gesture. The Polvakian Gem Slugs are all hedonistic aristocrats and an obvious parody of the Hutts.

Lobo occasionally encounters hat planets, such as planets made entirely from highway (in the Lobo comic series), a vacation planet (The Last Czarnian mini-series), and a planet populated by religious fundamentalists who immediately explode upon contact with any infidels by triggering an apparently inherited power through pushing down their head onto their shoulder.

In Sluggy Freelance the residents of the Dimension of Lame are all incredibly sweet, nice, rice cake-loving pacifists. The most deranged psychopath among them suffers an incredible bout of guilt after slightly bruising the toe of a murderous demon. Even the rules of the universe conform to this Hat: the sewers smell like flowers, fermentation doesn't exist, and all swear words are automatically replaced with a "bleep" noise.

This was the objective of the Smithy Gang in Super Mario RPG: To turn the Mushroom Kingdom into a world filled with... WEAPONS!
You also visit a couple Towns of Hats. Moleville is full of anthropomorphic moles who are all miners, Yo'ster Island has its entire populace (of Yoshis) obsessed with racing, Monstro Town is populated almost exclusively by monsters who have gone straight. But the weirdest has to be Marrymore, a town that is all about weddings. The only places of note in the entire town are a wedding chapel, and a fancy hotel for the honeymoon.

In Pandora's Legions, the Alien Invaders are dull and gullible enough compared to humans that once we start going out and proselytizing they become more convinced than the proselytizers. A whole planet briefly bans everything artificial. Mention is made of a low-gravity world colonized expressly for the purpose of horse racing.

The Belgariad series of novels by David Eddings:
Each of the nations of the West has its own hat - unusually, each is explicitly engineered by destiny. To a first approximation, based on the characters encountered: All Sendars are farmers, all Drasnians are spies, all Tolnedrans are merchants, all Chereks are Viking warriors, and all Nyissans are drug-addicted poisoners (with the exception of Issus, who is at least sober).
Most of the 'hats' are actually fantasy archetypes based on Earth cultures — the Chereks are Vikings, the Algars are the steppe horsemen (Magyars/Poles/Scythians with a side of Mongol) likewise, the Drasnians appear to be a Renaissance Italy stereotype transplanted into a different geographical setting, the Tolnedrans are based on the Roman and Byzantine Empires (hence both their mercantile aspect, preference for operating through clever treaties and their obsessive road-building and disciplined legions), the Arends are medieval high chivalry myths taken to the point of self-parody, etc. The unflappable demeanour, their courtesy, and the general obsession with propriety of the Sendars seem to be more English than anything.
This is somewhat justified, as each group were hand-picked by a Physical God, who shaped them specifically to align to their ideals, and possibly more than just in terms of commandments - the various disciples of Aldur, with the exception of Beldin, and particularly Belgarath, are all noted to look a lot like their Master. It is quite possible that something similar seeped into the national character of the chosen peoples. The exception are the Sendars, who were "created" by an immortal sorceress, and are a mixture of the various peoples around them. It is perhaps telling that they are by far the most stable of the nations of the West.
The Angarak nations on the Western continent started out as pretty hatty - Nadraks are more amoral counterparts of the Drasnians, the Thulls are the bulky and not overly bright workers who might as well have a sign saying 'kick me' painted on their backs, while the Murgos are the warrior aristocracy with the attendant ego. But then, they were under the control of an insane god for millennia. Certainly, it's notable that the Malloreans, who managed to get out from under the Grolim Church and do their own thing, culturally merging with the Melcenes in the process, became equivalent to the Sendars in their ethnic mixing and social stability, and the Tolnedrans in their secularism.
Moreover, the tribes of Angarak originally were the CASTES of Angarak, and Torak mistook their differences for tribal rather than professional distinctions after being away doing god-stuff/whinging in self-pity for a couple thousand years.
Eddings recycles revisits recycles those themes in the Elenium and Tamuli novels: All Styrics are self-pitying magicians, all Atans are warriors, All Tamuli are polite to a fault, etc.

While many planets in Honor Harrington are interesting, multi-cultural places, others are outright Planet of Hats type places:
Montana, on which everyone acts like stereotypical cowboys, which is lampshaded by one of the Montanans when he explains that his ancestors fell in love with an ideal, regardless of whether that ideal ever actually existed. In short, their planet's Hat is a Stetson.
Grayson is a planet of stubborn traditionalists, even those who want to reform the society want to do so to make it more like Grayson and when new ideas or technology are introduced from off-world they almost inevitably improve it first to make it a Grayson advancement. Furthermore much of their mindset is infectious so even offworlders start acting Grayson in time. This is perhaps exemplified by their name for God; while most modern versions of Christianity call God things like a healer, protector, or provider, Graysons call God "The Tester", and believe that everyone faces their own personal Test.

In the Justice League of America story "Heaven's Ladder" has a race of aliens infiltrating various planets to discover how each one views the afterlife and their religious beliefs. For most races the alien sleeper-agents are things like priests or religious leaders, as all of the universe's alien races only have one religion apiece. On Earth, their human representative is a professor of comparative theologies.

Winx Club has several, although not as many as one would think, partially due to the lack of information about most of the Winx's planets of origin.
Musa's planet Melody's only shown feature is whales who sing, and the only other people from her planet are her parents (who played instruments and sang) and Princess Galatea, who appears to be the fairy of classical music.
Tecna's planet, Zenith (or Titanium in the comics) is also full of people very similar to her: logical and rational and extremely technologically advanced.
All that appears to be of Linphea, Flora's planet, is forests, magical trees, and giant ladybugs that give rides. The only other inhabitants shown are Miele, Flora's little sister, and Princess Krystal, who also has healing, nature-type powers.
Averted by Eraklyon, Dominio, and Solaria, which act more like regular, non-homogeneous regions with no one sharing all the same character traits.

The "offscreen" regions of Dark Souls tend to fall into this. People from Catarina are jovial, noble, but often somewhat bumbling knights; Forossa was a land of Blood Knights; Thorolund and Lindelt are defined by devout religiosity; Mirrah was home to knights and murderers; the Great Swamp provides you with pyromancy tutors; Vinheim is the home of sorcery; Volgen is mercantile and mercenary; Astora is predominantly home to focused and honourable knights, plus one blacksmith; and Londor is the home of shadowy, deceptive Hollows and will be "made whole" by the Unkindled One usurping the First Flame in Dark Souls III. Carim is an interesting one; it started out with an unsavoury reputation, then underwent a cultural Heel–Faith Turn and absorbed most of the now-absent Thorolund's religiosity in III.

The X-Universe is really bad about this, due in large part to the games' near lack of plot and characterization (though that's not necessarily bad). Every faction has a hat that fits every character of that race. The Terrans are high-tech xenophobes, the Split are a Proud Warrior Race, the Teladi are Proud Merchant Lizard Folk, the Boron are peace-loving Squid People, etc.

Prince Valiant occasionally features Islands of Hats. When Val is on a sea voyage, it's somewhat common for his ship to get waylaid by supernatural means. One of two things then happens: either Val is put to some bizarre test, or he comes to an island where all the inhabitants share a single characteristic.

Darkwing Duck had some fun with this trope in one episode, where our hero visits the planet Mertz, where every single person is a superhero (complete with everyone having a totally unnecessary secret identity.) There is only one person on the planet without super powers, whose name is actually Ordinary Guy. Everyone else spends their entire lives trying to rescue him from peril (which in practice means gigantic, city-smashing brawls over who gets to help him cross the street.) Needless to say, Ordinary Guy's life sucks. Eventually, he snaps and becomes the planet's first and only supervillain. This gives him an outlet for his rage, and gives the heroes some actual evil to fight, making everyone much happier.
An absolutely literal version of this trope is used as well: Two episodes featured aliens from a planet where all aliens actually are hats, who hop onto other beings' heads to control them.

In The Divine Comedy, the seven planets medievals thought orbited the Earth, which include the Moon and the Sun, are fully inhabited by saints of similar natures. The trope is justified, as Beatrice goes out of her way to make it clear that the saints are on the same planet because they are similar, and not vice versa.
The Moon is the planet of The Oathbreakers who didn't absolutely will to break their oaths.
Mercury is the planet of were too driven by fame and honor on Earth.
Venus is the planet of those too focused on romantic pursuits.
The Sun is the planet of wise men.
Mars is the planet of the holy warriors.
Jupiter is the planet of The Good Kings.
Saturn is the planet of the contemplatives.

The districts in ACCA: 13-Territory Inspection Dept. are somewhere between this and Fantasy Counterpart Culture, with a nice helping of Rule of Quirky. Jumoku is the place where everything is bigger. Suitsu is preserved Les Misérables-era Paris (complete with frequent coup attempts). Yakkara is basically Vegas. And on and on. There's even Theme Naming for everyone from those districts (e.g. Korore residents are named after colors, Peshi residents are named after fish, Furawau residents are named after flowers, Rokkusu residents are named after rocks).

Sam Starfall of Freefall is from a species of kleptomaniacs, because his race evolved from scavengers. Sqids who pull off incredible acts of stealing are heroes. In Sqid mythology, the gods have never actually given anything to mortals, and everything mortals have that came from them was stolen. Humans have seriously considered wiping out the Sqids because their values are so different than humans that conflict would seem inevitable should they ever gain space travel.

Played interestingly in the New Jedi Order series with the Yuuzhan Vong who basically wear the hat of "fanatical devotion", but there's a great deal of variety in how this manifestsnote obsession with pain and death, while it a first seems like the Vong hat, is a part of their religion and therefore more a side-effect of the "fanatical devotion" hat than a hat in its own right. It mostly breaks down along caste lines (warrior caste hat: war, priest caste hat: religion, shaper caste hat: Mad Scientist, and intendant caste hat: bureaucracy), though two of the main Vong characters (Nom Anor and Nen Yim) are both rebellious spirits who break their society's mold in different ways, while neither buying in to the brutal religion that shapes most of their culturenote  Nom is purely selfish and manipulates the Vong political/military structure for his own benefit; Nen is an idealistic scientist who defies law and tradition in order to better serve her people. Still, it's practically unheard of to see an apathetic Vong; they're almost all intensely devoted to something.

Blue Ramun: All members of the Blue Ramun tribe of the Silkdeep Empire are doctors. The Blue People are an ethnic group defined by the innate healing powers of their blood, and the tribe's culture is structured around practicing medicine and ensuring the continuity of their work as healers. Adults and older teenagers live scattered throughout the empire in cities where they serve as doctors; children are raised in communal caravans where they spend their formative years in an extended apprenticeship learning how to augment the power of their blood with herbal medicine and surgical techniques; and the tribal elders who have retired from practicing medicine travel in the caravans to care for and teach the children.

Cowboy Bebop:
In the episode "Mushroom Samba" (itself the name of another trope), the crew of the Bebop finds that the terraformed moon Io has developed a culture apparently inspired by 1970s Blaxploitation films.
Bebop used the different planets as either Fantasy Counterpart Culture or a planet of hats. Venus was US-run, while Callisto was Russian, the Jovians were mostly European, and Earth was SE Asia.

In Power Rangers, planet Onyx. Its hat is The Wild West, existing largely as a place for the Evil Monster Saloon to be located.
An unusual example is Inquiris. Little is known about the planet, save that the natives, for whatever reason, cannot make declarative or exclamatory statements. Yes, a planet who's hat is literally a specific type of sentence.

The Discworld novels contain a number of societies that result when you take the expected stereotypes and turn them up until the knob breaks off. Notably:
Dwarves, for whom gender diversity is something that happens to other people because both sexes have long, lush beards and dress in so many layers of clothing that they default to an androgynous barrel shape, and every individual has a bone-deep instinct for mining, smithing, and trading (mechanical work and gadgetry, while often associated with dwarves in other works, is specifically noted not to be a common trait of Disc dwarves, the dwarf that the narrative is focusing on just happens to be good at it). Notably, traditional dwarves consider even identifying as female to be shameful and obscene, though this seems to be easing off in more progressive areas. In later books the more extremist dwarves acquire a new hat where they basically become the Taliban.
Lancre, where narrativium seems to be a bit stronger than elsewhere, and thus stories tend to be a law of physics. People there tend to break out in fairy tales.
Uberwald, a country of Gothic Horror where every vampire myth is true, but no two vampire families necessarily have the same combination of traits and weaknesses, and pretty much every classic horror trope (werewolves, mad science, decrepit castles on every mountaintop...) can be found if you just walk far enough.
Igors. Whether they are a family, a social group of like-minded individuals, or a species in their own right is unclear, but they all have a crazy talent at mad science and surgery of all kinds, and all serve as an assistant of some sort to a Marthter. The men tend to be hunchbacked and artfully ugly, while the females (Igoras and Igorinas) tend to be drop-dead gorgeous, to fit with the expected stereotypes of, respectively, The Igor and the Mad Scientist's Beautiful Daughter. It is also demonstrated in Monstrous Regiment that they can be quite gender-fluid within these parameters.

Subverted in Quentyn Quinn, Space Ranger! Groonch the Gnorch, a parody of Worf from Star Trek, says that despite being raised with the ideals of another alien race, he strives to be the kind of noble warrior honored by "the Gnorch peoples." Quentyn asks, "Which peoples?" Groonch then learns, to his complete surprise, that the Gnorch species is rather culturally diverse and only a handful of ancient tribes were as warlike as he thought. His own outfit is an odd cultural mishmash.

In Nyaruko: Crawling with Love!, Earth's hat is specifically noted to pretty much be our entertainment industry, which is so popular out there its a controlled substance and we can't know how incredibly big our audience is, both due to lack of supply, although the nature of our fans also factored into their decision to hide while taking advantage of our funny hat.

Gilneas in World of Warcraft: Cataclysm, even before worgen curse, seems to be a literal Nation of Hats. As far as you can see, everyone in the starting zone wears some kind of hat.
Warcraft 2 had several examples of this trope among the human nations and orcish clans. Dalaran was all mages, Kul'Tiras was all sailors, Stromgarde was all warriors, Alterac was all snobs. The Twilight's Hammer was all end of the world cultists, the Stormreavers were all warlocks, Laughing Skull were all backstabbing traitors, Warsong could all do earsplitting battlecries, Bonechewers were all cannibals. In World of Warcraft, dwarves continue to fit this loosely. Ironforge dwarves are mostly smiths and disciplined warriors, Wildhammers are nature loving barbarians, and Dark Irons are all sneaky spies, thieves, assassins, and pyromaniacs.
Cataclysm has provided many races a chance to get new hats. Night elves can now be magi, something that was long forbidden in their culture. Dwarves can now be shamans, providing stark contrast to their otherwise industrial nature (at least of the Bronzebeard variety). Orcs are seriously divided over whether or not Garrosh Hellscream is a good leader—even though the should fully embrace a blood-and-thunder warrior. There is still a tremendous amount of hat wearing though, and while not all races have true hats, they have collective niches, which both the Horde and the Alliance forming parts of Six Race gang.

In The Restaurant at the End of the Universe the idea of the "Shoe Event Horizon" is brought forth: a situation in which a society becomes economically and emotionally depresses, everyone buys shoes to cheer themselves up, more shoes are bought so more shops and less effort are dedicated to them, as the lower quality shoes break apart more shoes are bought, repeat ad infinitum. essentially turning said planet into a both literal and societal Planet of Shoes. this happens to two planets in the series: Frogstar World B and Brontitall leading to both worlds suffering economic collapse, their surfaces being covered in geological layers of shoes and the people evolving into birds.

Exalted: Every group wears a hat. every group has five subgroups, which each wear a hat.
Solar Exalts wear the hat of the superheroes. Dawncaste = warriors, Zenith Caste = Priests and performers, Twilight Caste = inventors and scholars, Night Caste = ninja assassins, and Eclipse Caste = diplomats
Lunar Exalts wear the hat of the Protectors and of the feral monsters. Two of their types were destroyed, meaning they are one of the few types that does not have five subgroups. They have Full Moon (warriors), No Moon (mystics), and Changing Moon (rogues) castes.
Abyssals Exalted and Infernal Exalted, both corrupted Solars, wear the hat of the Rebels and destroyers. Their castes are reflections of the Solar castes — for instance, a Daybreak (corrupted twilight) might be a necrosurgeon or demon-summoner, whereas their Infernal versions, Defilers, are all about seeking how to tear down the existing reality and create their own, better version.
Sidereal Exalted wear the hat of the master manipulators. Their types are based on their patron planet/Maiden, and are pretty clear based on what that god is a patron of: Voyages (travelers, loners, and explorers), Serenity (lovers, hedonists, and pleasure-seekers), War (duh), Secrets (spies and info-gatherers), and Endings (assassins)
Dragon-Blooded Exalts wear the hat of the Samurai-style nobility. The Earth, Fire, Air, Water, and Wood castes are fairly standard elemental interpretations. The Noble Houses that are led by an elemental individual also tend to take on stereotypical traits.
Amongst everyone else, you can expect a Dragon-King to be either kung-fu master seeking to rebuild his or her near-extinct race, or a mindless brute who kill anyone who gets into their territory. And a Jadeborn is either a Worker, Warrior, or an Artisan, as Autochthon willed them.

Used a lot in the Stargate-verse:
Stargate SG-1:
Particularly in the earlier episodes, nearly every planet the SG-1 team visits is based on a particular human culture. It's a justified or at least handwaved by saying that the people were transplanted to that planet from Earth, and their culture has just been stagnating since. There are the Middle Ages, the Norse, the Greeks, and, of course, the ancient Egyptians, among others. Justified in that most of these planets were supposedly populated by people of earth who had been taken to that planet by one of the more highly-developed species - the Goa'uld and the Asgard being the typical abductors.
The Goa'uld deliberately stagnate the culture of any people they transplant. They like to keep them primitive, because 1) primitives are more easily coerced into worship by their awesome-but-impractical weapons, and 2) primitives are absolutely no threat to them. (The Goa'uld really hate it when people become advanced enough to see they aren't gods.) Earth only developed to the point of being a threat because the Goa'uld lost access to the Earth Stargate and then *forgot where the planet was*. The Asgard also (somewhat) stagnated the Norse people they transplanted because a treaty they had with the Goa'uld didn't allow any protected planet (the planets the Goa'uld agreed not to touch) to develop to a point where they would be a threat to them. The Asgard were not in a position to fight the Goa'uld due to the war with the Replicators, so the transplanted humans were kept relatively primitive (though not so much as the Goa'uld transplanted ones) for their protection.
In "2001", the Aschen are described as: "They don't get excited in general, General. It's like an entire planet of accountants." Their more significant hat is planetary genocide.
The Nox, had preachy pacifism as their hat as well as literal funny hats.
The Goa'uld hat appears to be arrogance and sense of superiority, something that is present even in the Tok'ra, non-malevolent Goa'uld.
The Jaffa are a Proud Warrior Race as a result of their entire species being enslaved to serve as the Goa'uld military.
The Asgard hat is clearly science and scholarship as we never meet an Asgard who does any kind of physical labor. This is also justified as thousands of years of cloning have weakened their bodies to the point that an excited hug can hurt them.
Earth also has its own hat: Genre Savvy. SG-1 is the most Genre Savvy of them all, but most other minor characters show at least some signs of this trait. We Tau'ri have a technological hat, too — instead of basing more advanced tech off more exotic principles, we use fundamentally basic equipment in increasingly refined ways. This is particularly noted in our really spectacular projectile weapons.
In Stargate Atlantis, the Wraith are a race consisting solely of warriors who live to eat. In the last season, Todd the Wraith mentions that feeding on humans is the driving force in their society with little beyond that. We did finally get a small glimpse of Wraith society in Season 5's "The Queen". Judging from that episode, the entire society is divided into Queens, who seem to spend their time intimidating one another, their male Advisors/Viziers, who seem to specialize in Magnificent Bastardry, and the possibly asexual Drones, whose duties apparently involve patrolling ships and standing guard (not unlike actual Soldier Drones in Bee colonies). All of them are in thrall to a prime Queen (called The Primary in this particular segment shown, but this may not be the case with every Wraith alliance). Exactly where the various Male Wraiths who serve as scientists and field commanders (who are also uniformly errhm, uniformed in leather) fit into this mix is never really shown.

In InCryptid, several of the humanoid cryptid species have a hat that is often the only thing separating them from humans:
Jinks: Luck manipulation.
Sylphs: Personal density manipulation.
Mara: Feeding on life energy of other sapients.
Madhura: An affinity for sugar and sweet things, and an anti-decay aura.
Johrlac: Sociopathic Eerie Pale Skinned Brunettes with telepathic powers who act as Backstory Invaders. They're also all Good with Numbers.note The madhura and Johrlac are only superficially humanoid, and have different internal physiology.
Lilu (succubi/incubi): Living Aphrodisiac pheromones and low-level empathy. They're cross-fertile with most hominid cryptids.
Ghouls: Obligate carnivores with Scary Teeth, otherwise humanoid.
Bogeymen: Gray skin, Creepily Long Arms and fingers, and Weakened by the Light.
The Aeslin mice, although they aren't humanoid, also have a species hat: Animal Religion and Photographic Memory.

Emperor Mollusk versus The Sinister Brain:
Neptunons are known for two things; they are wicked-intelligent scientists, and they're very paranoid. Most of their technological achievement is done so that they could protect their planet and themselves from any potential invaders. Ironically, all their technological achievement is why their planet is so desired by other interplanetary superpowers in the first place.
Venusians are a Proud Warrior Race of Lizard Folk known for their strong moral framework, which usually involves a strict chain of command. The fact that their Gods are real and inflict Divine Punishment if they don't adhere to their moral values no doubt has something to do with it.
Saturnites are a race of rock people who invaded the Earth for its resources. Much like the Venusians, they are a Proud Warrior Race, though they embody the "Soldier" side of the Soldier vs. Warrior dichotomy; most Saturnites do it not for honor, but because it's just a job.
Atlanteans are known for being highly-opportunistic hyper-capitalists. Their loyalties are easily bought, one can't get to anybody important without bribing their entire staff, and they are perfectly willing to sue people over anything. When Mollusk's Blob Monster destroys part of the city, the town's entire economy goes into overdrive; not for construction and repairs, but Frivolous Lawsuits by individual citizens over their physical well-being, mental well-being, whether their warning system caused them too much (or not enough) distress, investigations over who's to blame for all of it, etc.

The Stormlight Archive is a world where each nation has a hat. The Thaylen are merchants, the Azish are bureaucrats, the Alethi are warriors, etc. Historically the nations were united, as humanity was united in a series of apocalyptic wars (called Desolations) against the Voidbringers. The nations (referred to as Silver Kingdoms in modern times) divided duties in preparing for and fighting these wars. Alethela trained warriors, Thalath managed supply lines and trade, etc. In the four thousand years since the last Desolation, borders have shifted and the Kingdoms have grown or split in various ways, but their ancient purposes have played a major role in defining their modern cultures.

Dungeons & Dragons:
In the earliest edition of D&D, Elves and Dwarves were classes. Which means that all Elves and all Dwarves had the same level progression, learned the same kills and abilities.
4th Edition D&D splits the old traits of the elf race into two new races called "elves" and "eladrin". Because, you know, you can't have a single species wearing the intellectual hat and the close-to-nature hat at the same time.
Humanity's hat in 4th edition is being driven, ambitious, The Determinator, and being able to learn things faster than other races because of their shorter lifespans.
It's also heavily implied that humans are the only species in the setting other than dragons that can mate with any other species and produce viable offspring. Our hat is that we Really Get Around.
The Drow or Dark Elf hat is treachery, with the exception of Drizzt and all his imitators along with Church of Eilistraee.
Beholders are almost all narcissistic xenophobes.
Neogi are completely obsessed with slavery.
Giff (not to be confused with Gith) are an entire species of militaristic mercenaries, with a British flavor.
Grells are completely obsessed with eating

Farscape had an episode on the planet Litigara where 90% of the inhabitants were lawyers and the remaining 10% servants who ran the various non law-related services.
It could be called a planet of balaclavas, since that's what the lawyers always seemed to wear. Also, the Judge wore a hat that was a mix between a sombrero and a dinner plate, and (like the uniform) the colour looked like Dolores Umbridge picked it out.
It's also made clear in the episode that their civilization is actively collapsing because of this setup. The events of the episode quite likely pushed it over the edge; the crew doesn't stick around to find out.
The Nebari are presently attempting to make their home planet a Planet of Hats through brutal enforcement of the law- to the point that dissenters are often simply brainwashed into perfect citizens. As a result, the only Nebari encountered in the show are either cold-hearted police officers or rebellious criminals like Chiana.
The Kanvians have a planet of mafia lords. Their government is based in the ruling of a criminal family over the others.
Other races also seem to be very monocultural or extremely specialized; the Diagnosans are a species of medics, and of course the Peacekeepers are a species of soldiers. The Peacekeepers later turn out to be just one culture amongst many; a breakaway cluster of planets are a regional power, and many unaffiliated worlds of the same race exist.

Vampire: The Masquerade as an example, most players choose their clan/Hat from the Brujah (rebellion), Gangrel (wilderness), Malkavian (insanity), Nosferatu (secrecy), Toreador (art), Tremere (magic), or Ventrue (wealth). Being Hatless here brands you a Caitiff, giving you the outcast Hat. For all that the Clans are stated to be diverse (and some atypical examples are given as character templates in the splatbooks) canon characters are almost always at most slight variations on a Hat.

Stargate SG-1:
Particularly in the earlier episodes, nearly every planet the SG-1 team visits is based on a particular human culture. It's a justified or at least handwaved by saying that the people were transplanted to that planet from Earth, and their culture has just been stagnating since. There are the Middle Ages, the Norse, the Greeks, and, of course, the ancient Egyptians, among others. Justified in that most of these planets were supposedly populated by people of earth who had been taken to that planet by one of the more highly-developed species - the Goa'uld and the Asgard being the typical abductors.
The Goa'uld deliberately stagnate the culture of any people they transplant. They like to keep them primitive, because 1) primitives are more easily coerced into worship by their awesome-but-impractical weapons, and 2) primitives are absolutely no threat to them. (The Goa'uld really hate it when people become advanced enough to see they aren't gods.) Earth only developed to the point of being a threat because the Goa'uld lost access to the Earth Stargate and then *forgot where the planet was*. The Asgard also (somewhat) stagnated the Norse people they transplanted because a treaty they had with the Goa'uld didn't allow any protected planet (the planets the Goa'uld agreed not to touch) to develop to a point where they would be a threat to them. The Asgard were not in a position to fight the Goa'uld due to the war with the Replicators, so the transplanted humans were kept relatively primitive (though not so much as the Goa'uld transplanted ones) for their protection.
In "2001", the Aschen are described as: "They don't get excited in general, General. It's like an entire planet of accountants." Their more significant hat is planetary genocide.
The Nox, had preachy pacifism as their hat as well as literal funny hats.
The Goa'uld hat appears to be arrogance and sense of superiority, something that is present even in the Tok'ra, non-malevolent Goa'uld.
The Jaffa are a Proud Warrior Race as a result of their entire species being enslaved to serve as the Goa'uld military.
The Asgard hat is clearly science and scholarship as we never meet an Asgard who does any kind of physical labor. This is also justified as thousands of years of cloning have weakened their bodies to the point that an excited hug can hurt them.
Earth also has its own hat: Genre Savvy. SG-1 is the most Genre Savvy of them all, but most other minor characters show at least some signs of this trait. We Tau'ri have a technological hat, too — instead of basing more advanced tech off more exotic principles, we use fundamentally basic equipment in increasingly refined ways. This is particularly noted in our really spectacular projectile weapons.

In Mom and Dad Save the World, the title characters get kidnapped by (and save the world from) an Evil Overlord from a planet where the hat is... mind-boggling amounts of stupidity. As an example, one of the deadliest weapons on this world is called the light grenade, which instantly disintegrates whoever picks it up. And how does this decimate an entire army? It says "Pick Me Up".

Generally in Rocket Age all Venusians are warrior poets, all Ganymedians are noble savages and all Europans (aside from the Emissary Corps) are arrogant and superior. However, this becomes subverted the more is learnt about every planet and it's peoples.

In the Halo:
Human colonies tend to take after one or two particular cultures; Harvest had a mix of American Midwest and Scandinavian, Reach's original Hungarian settlers still had a major impact on on the planet's culture, the Rubble's population seems to be largely Hispanic, etc.
Done on purpose by the Covenant. The Prophets set up their society so that none of the various races could get by on their own (Elites are warriors, Grunts are laborers, etc.). One Elite spends the whole of Halo: Glasslands searching ancient texts to rediscover things like agriculture, to keep the Elite homeworld from total collapse.

Mass Effect is known for playing with this trope. Everyone's got a hat of some kind (often with some biological basis), but many individuals do take off their racial hats.
Humanity's in-universe hat is being impatient, rude, and demanding things done their way. A Paragon Shepard will actually surprise some alien characters by being gentle and considerate, while a Renegade Shepard will embody the stereotype.
The Asari's hat is being Blue-Skinned Alien Space Elves with three life phases: Maiden (Stripper/mercenary), Matron (boring), and Matriarch (politician). The Asari character Liara is a Maiden-phase Asari who works as an archaeologist, Matriarch Aethyta works as a bartender (after being ignored when she suggested the Asari make more of an effort to ditch their hat), and Peebee is very much a reckless, live-in-the-moment person (Asari are long-lived and thus tend to take longer views of things).
The Krogan have Proud Warrior Race Guy and Blood Knight as their hats, but Okeer is a Krogan scientist, Charr is a Krogan romantic, and Kesh is a Krogan engineer.
The Salarians' hat is that of the Proud Scholar Race, being a race of scientists and other academics. Some of those smarts go into spycraft and black ops as demonstrated with the Special Tasks Group, the Salarians' military organization that leverages subterfuge and sabotage to compensate for their physical frailty.
Quarians have the hat of sickly, environmental suit-bound Grease Monkeys who are experts in computer programming and ship engineering, although there are also Quarians who know how to fight and can throw down with the best of them, such as Quarian marine Kal'Reegar.

Most episodes of The Super Mario Bros.

Also, Bowser and his minions always seemed to conform to the "hat" of the world, appearing as a different stock villain in each episode.

The Transformers: The Movie has the planet Junk, where a race of robots made of scrap live; their entire culture is based on TV and radio transmissions from Earth, with the result that they say things like "Stop, thief! No welcome wagon 'hello stranger' with that new coffee flavor for you!" This was homaged in the Live-Action Adaptation where Optimus Prime claimed the Autobots learned to speak English "from your Internet".

In FTL: Faster Than Light, the races are all defined by certain traits. The Engi have Machine Empathy, but are awkward in combat, instead relying on attack and defense drones. The Mantis are the opposite, being a Proud Warrior Race, but also are often violent and vicious. Rockmen are stoic and have a bit of The Fundamentalist in them, as well as being extremely wary of other races. Zoltan are Lawful Neutral (sometimes Lawful Stupid) Energy Beings. Slugs are greedy merchants with psychic powers that allow them to see through the thick nebulae where they live. And Humans...well, Humans Are Average.

Traveller is a little more complex about this. Humans overall are as complex as, well, humans, though individual worlds often have a hat. The Aslan's hat is Proud Warrior Race Guy, though arguably that quality is detailed well enough to take the hattiness away. The K'kree are Vegetarian Jihadists (yes, really). The Zhodani's hat is Psionics.

The Abbai's hat is a focus on "community", the Brakiri's hat is business (more corporate culture as an ideal, rather than a Star Trek Ferengi-style "profit", though of course that is their ultimate goal). The Drazi's hat is pretty much "violence" — more specifically, the idea that a brawl pretty much solves any problem. The Llort's hat is basically kleptomania. The Shadows and Vorlons of course proudly promote their hats of "chaos" and "order and obedience" respectively, and try their hardest to make the younger races wear them too.

Vandread:
The two main planets are Taraak (the planet of men), a barren world where the locals are concerned with things like uniforms, practicality, appearing manly, and eating nutrition pellets (think hamster food), and Mejere (the planet of women), which looks like Las Vegas and has locals concerned with appearing nice, who eat foods that are basically dessert.
There's a darker side to this as well, as every inhabited planet was marked by a unique physical trait representing which organ was supposed to be harvested by Earth. Taraak and Mejele were male and female reproductive organs respectively.

The Point is a fable which Harry Nilsson used to make an entire soundtrack. It was later adapted into an animated film and screenplay using the soundtrack. The entire fable revolved around a planet on which everything had a point on it, with the sole exception of the main character. He is shunned as a result. Ironically at the end, the entire world becomes devoid of points with the exception of the main character, who grows a point.

Played with in the Galactic Civilizations games. Most species have one hat: Altarians are spiritual Human Aliens, the Drengin are warlike conquerors, and so on. Humanity's hat is diplomacy, being the ones to share hyperdrive tech with other races unconditionally in the hopes of fostering cooperations... but they also don't flinch at employing violence if a situation degrades to that point. The fact humanity doesn't see anything strange about this dichotomy freaks the other races out a bit, with some of them considering it downright duplicitous. Meanwhile, humanity finds it strange that every alien they meet is so culturally homogenous.

While not a planet, per se, the Jägers of Girl Genius have two hats. The first, is that they love fighting. The second is that... they love hats. No, really, they REALLY like hats. One Jäger had an entire short story about him going to get a new hat. There's even rules on how the hat must be acquired- you can't just go into a store and buy one.
The fighting is justified in that Jägers were once humans who chose to transform themselves because they loved fighting.
This obsession is not limited to just the Jaegers. In particular, Franz has been seen to follow the same rules of acquisition as the Jaegers, unsurprising as the dragon has likely fought alongside them for centuries, and Bang DuPree shares their fascination with magnificent headgear along with many other personality traits. Even the Wulfenbach entourage gets in on the trend eventually.

The Jan in Alien in a Small Town are all compulsively honest. They evolved from hive-dwelling prey animals, and cooperation was essential to their survival. This doesn't cripple them in dealing with other races, for several reasons: they know that others may lie to them; their hearing is so acute that they can hear your heartbeat, making them living lie detectors; they can keep secrets, as long as they don't have to actively lie to keep them; and they have a vast network of allies because everyone trusts them.

In Gems of War, each kingdom has a particular theme, and some involve a "hat" — piety, invention, etc. However, the quest character for each kingdom is sometimes in opposition to that theme rather than an exemplar of it; for example, the kingdom of temples and paladins (Whitehelm) has you receive your quests from a vampire (Sapphira) who is being attacked by the pious folk.

Sometimes used in the Disney Mouse and Duck Comics:
In one Mickey Mouse detective story, Mickey and Goofy are employed by aliens from a planet where everyone is a thief — its perfectly legal to steal, people are suspicious of someone who doesn't, and their leader got his position because he is such a great crook. (No, not by cheating. People voted for him because he was such a dishonest man.) They need an outsider because they are temporarily hosting an artifact shared with other, friendly planets, and they don't trust anyone on their own planet — with good reason.
The "Reginella" subseries has various examples:
Reginella's homeworld of Pacificus is inhabited by a Perfect Pacifist People-and for a good reason, as their Psychic Powers can be devastating under the right conditions (when coordinated by their queen Reginella a group of them has summoned lightning, and Reginella, as the queen, is incredibly powerful), so it's more about protecting the rest of the universe from themselves.
Bingo's people seem to all be bullies and proud of it. It's unclear if this is valid for their entire species or just Bingo's group, as they're the only ones seen.
The Vampirionians are all thieves, who robs anyone unlucky enough to get close to their Planet Spaceship and can't retaliate.
Paperinik New Adventures has its own examples:
All Evronians are tyrannical and evil Emotion Eaters (to the point a warrant officer commanding a cut-off group of Evronians hoped to find a superior officer to be properly mistreated), with the Imperial Council, the Emperor's subspecies, and rogue members of the high caste being outright Galactic Conquerors and their nicest members being at most Noble Demons and Pragmatic Villains. Justified in that current Evronians are all clones with some modifications depending on their post and job-to the point that Porphioolon, the first known Evronian to be an actual good person, is the result of a low caste technicians messing up the process to artificially grow a high-caste one.
All Xerbians are scientists and hold a doctorate, to the point that when asking if there's a doctor they have to specify they mean a medic.
The entire population of Armadha is in the Private Military Contractors business, either by leading an army of combat robots or manufacturing and selling said robots and anything they need to fight. Justified in that Armadha is extremely poor in resources (even air is scarce), so the only thing they have to export and get what they need to live on their Death World is themselves-and as they're tough enough to live on Armadha and too stubborn to just move somewhere else, becoming mercenary soldiers was the logical choice.
The Coronan women are shown to be all rather cold and calculating and extremely concerned about their Psychic Powers, and the males (whose powers are rarer and usually weaker, to the point some guards had to call out a warning about having to face one who could fight the most powerful women) seem to be OK with it if not fully supporting. Justified in that this was a willing cultural shift following the overthrow of Moldrock: after he and his warriors were sealed away, the women with psychic powers and the scientists that took down Moldrock found themselves as the strongest in a warrior society, and to protect the rest of the universe from themselves they forced a cultural shift.
The Coronans under Moldrock were a rather violent warrior society devoted to scour the galaxy to find a good challenge and honor (to the point Moldrock felt dirty when he had to use subterfuge for the good of his followers), as shown when Moldrock and some of his followers manage to escape their seal. Even the one scientist of that era that is shown, Everett Ducklair, has rather violent tendencies fixated with violence and spent much time after Moldrock's defeat creating weapons by accident, as he was so used doing it that the moment he got distracted while inventing something he'd make it as lethal as he could.

The Hat of the Daxamites is violent xenophobia. Daxamites who don't try to kill aliens on sight are considered outcasts, and in one case was brainwashed by his own parents so that he would be a xenophobe. And just to complicate matters for aliens, they're on offshoot of Kryptonians, who win the Superpower Lottery when exposed to a yellow sun. The few notable Daxamites like "Mon-El" and "Julia" are white sheep whove gone so far as to mostly ditch their Daxamite names.

The series has the Iskoort, whose Hat is guilds — there was (in order of introduction) a Trader Guild, a Criminal Guild, a Warmaker Guild (though it quickly becomes clear the Iskoort were not cut out for combat), a Servant Guild, a Worker Guild, a Superstition and Magic Guild, a Shopper Guild, and even a "News, Gossip, and Speculation Guild." And all the Traders were the most annoying salesmen imaginable. (The others were annoying, too, but they ran into Traders the most.)
The Hork Bajir were designed by the species that created them (to be gardeners of a sort) to be peaceful and not terribly bright. Occasionally one is born with human-level intelligence though.

The Wheel of Time: The world is comprised of hat-wearing nations and peoples. Two Rivers folk are all brave and stubborn, Cairhienin are all short and concerned with political intrigue, Arad Domani women are all seductresses, women in the various Ajahs of the Aes Sedai almost always act alike, etc. Few cultures in the series are shown to have individuals who behave contrary to their cultural stereotypes. Arguably justified with regards to the Aes Sedai; they are guided towards their appropriate Ajahs while they are still Accepted.

Top 10 (by comic book writer Alan Moore)
The comic takes place in a city where everyone — the cops, the bus drivers, the bums on the street — is a superhero or some other "science hero" trope. This does have lots of room within it, however, as the titular team has a talking dog in an exoskeleton, the world's only Yazidi superhero, and a sarcastic Mazinger Z, amongst others. Did we mention it's a police procedural?
It's eventually revealed that the "10 Precinct" (hence the "10" in "Top 10") is so called because it's the 10th in a series of alternate dimensions. Each dimension has its own precinct, and its own hat. The 10th is superheroes; other precincts include robot dinosaurs and Romans.
It's also revealed in a prequel that the city was set up after World War II and beings with superpowers were exiled to it.

The very basis of Sliders, where our protagonists would slide into a parallel Earth defined by a key difference with "real" Earth. Although some episodes are more imaginative and seems to be inspired by classic horror and sci-fi movies, some of the Earths truly play this trope straight. There’s an Earth of lawyers where 90% of the population study law and even the minimal action like buying fast food would require tons of disclaiming paperwork and documentation or accidentally hitting someone slightly may result in a life-destroying suit. There was also a hippie world, a hare Krishna world and an Egyptian world (mainly based on the most basic stereotypes associated with Egypt like their alleged obsession with death, although this idea has been already discarded by modern scholars).

In the To the Stars trilogy by Harry Harrison, EarthGov has not only terraformed Single Biome Planets, they've also created a unique culture for each in order to maximise their control. For instance the agricultural planet the protagonist has been exiled to in Wheelworld is populated entirely by peasants and mechanics, ruled by a group of autocratic Familys.

The Iron Islands: iron and seafaring

In Good Omens, Angels and Demons are respectably Always Lawful Good and Always Chaotic Evil, while humanity is capable of both. Such tropes are all deconstructed, as since humanity has the free will to be either/or good and bad, they are capable of greater virtues and viler atrocities that any angel or demon could come up with to the point where Crowley considers telling everyone in Hell that they should not even bother. Since Aziraphale and Crowley themselves have lived among humans since Adam and Eve left the garden, they have essentially gone native, Crowley begrudgingly doing nice things and Aziraphale doing bad things throughout the story as a sign that humanity had rubbed off on them.

In Azur Lane, the various shipgirls are all based around national themes:
Eagle Union: Mostly very mixed designs overall, but some classes do have a Strong Family Resemblance. If an American shipgirl is Ms. Fanservice, she's probably got legs for miles.
Royal Navy: Officer and a Gentleman, Royals Who Actually Do Something, English Rose and Everyone Loves Blondes define this British-inspired faction. Usually the protagonists and usually the Nice Girl (though Beware the Nice Ones applies too).
Ironblood: A strong militaristic and imperialistic theme runs through the Kriegsmarine-inspired Ironblood, combined with scary black uniforms and Cute Monster Girl rigging. Ironblood girls tend to be the Blood Knight and/or the Tsundere.
Sakura Empire: If a Sakura shipgirl is not the Yamato Nadeshiko then she is probably a Little Bit Beastly, a reference to the youkai of Japanese mythology.
Eastern Radiance: Consists of light ships that focus on offensive power. Pandas are a recurring Animal Motif. Largely Out of Focus.
North Union: The Baroness, Sensual Slavs and very pale in both skin and hair colour. Sometimes Vodka Drunkenski too. Tend to be either Chummy Commies (at their nicest) or Token Evil Teammate (at their worst).
Iris Libre: A heroic French-based faction based on Light Is Good, Church Militant, Jeanne d'Archétype and Knight in Shining Armor. They are the La Résistance.
Vichya Dominion: The "bad" French faction. Black Knight and Red and Black and Evil All Over combined with Dark Is Not Evil (as they are the reluctant Les Collaborateurs).
Sardegna Empire: The Aristocrat Team, The Fashionista and Badass Cape (with Dramatic Wind). These girls go to war and do it in style. The Royal Navy and Ironblood don't think they're that cool though.

The world in Pokémon seems to be a Planet of Hats as well — much of culture and society revolves around Pokémon, from the economy (shops and huge department stores which sell only Pokémon-related goods) to the government. And since every town is surrounded by tall grass, it's technically impossible to even leave town without a Pokémon of your own.
In the games, all Pokémon have serving humans as a hat. It's possible to have a disobedient Pokémon, but there is always a way to overcome this problem and get them to submit to you. Truly untrainable Pokémon only appear in the anime and tend to be legendaries. Individual species have additional hats, such as Gardevoir's loyalty, and Slaking's laziness (the latter even became a game mechanic). The anime established early on all Pokémon are Always Good and only do evil if they have an evil trainer, but this was eventually retconed away many years later with Pokémon serving as antagonists.

Futurama would often use ridiculous examples, i.e. the Neutral planet, the cannibal planet, planet of human-hating robots. In "Love and Rocket", Dr. Zoidberg (himself from a planet of Crustacean Space Jews) talks about the planets destroyed by love radiation why not, "including two gangster planets and a cowboy world."
The opening of a certain episode sees the Planet Express crew return pantless and low on supplies from "the planet of the moochers."
Fry goes to live on the Amish Homeworld for a while.
Also the planet of gigantic man-hating tribeswomen in "Amazon Women in the Mood".
The episode "The Duh-Vinci Code" introduces a planet of Insufferable Geniuses. How smart were they? Leonardo da Vinci left because he was the dumbest person there.
There's also a literal Universe of Hats. Namely, when visiting the edge of our universe in "I Dated a Robot", the crew sees on the other side their identical alt-selves, only they're all wearing cowboy hats.
"The Farnsworth Parabox" has them visit a series of alternate-universes-in-boxes; most of these universes are one-shot-gag Hat Universes, such as the hippy universe and the eyeless universe.
Not to mention the Harlem Globetrotters, with their own planet, university, and algebra.
Subverted in one episode: There is not, in fact, a radiator planet inhabited by radiator people. Or at least, the radiator that Fry made out with wasn't one.

An episode of X Minus One featured a reptilian alien coming to a mining planet for one of their workers (basically a milder version of a Furian). The reptile alien's hat is that they Cannot Tell a Lie (although they don't have to say the whole truth either) while the "Furian's" hat is being Hot-Blooded. Lampshaded by the "Furian": "You know how they say we're all good at bar fights?"

Since the expansion of Magic: The Gathering's focus to outside of Dominaria, most planes seem to follow this sort of pattern. For instance, Kamigawa resembles Feudal Japan in culture and aesthetics, Mirrodin is made almost entirely from metal, Innistrad is an darker version of Ãœberwald, and Zendikar is an adventurer's paradise with constantly-shifting landscapes and an endless number of unexplored ruins.

The United Powers League of StarCraft took some very drastic measures to turn Earth into one in order to remove all the differences that lead to wars and other conflicts. They made English the official language of the world, banned all the old religions in favor of a philosophy of the "divinity of mankind", and made cybernetics and genetic engineering illegal, among other things. Those who did not conform to these new standards were forcibly rounded up and executed, leading to a death toll of 400,000,000. Doran Routhe had 40,000 of these dissidents selected to be put into cryogenic sleep and sent off to colonize other worlds, leading the Terrans to populate the Koprulu Sector that serves as the main setting of the games.

In Kino's Journey, each country is a separate Planet of Hats, such as a country devoted to nothing but the construction of a tower, or one inhabited by people who do nothing but secretarial work. Most amusing is the town which doesn't have a hat, and is trying desperately to get one. They show off some different 'ancient tradition' to every traveler who passes through. Kino remarks that this is their hat.

Justified with the Amarcians in Tales of Graces. All of them seem to be scientists or engineers of some kind. We later find out that the Amarcians aren't actually a race, the word is just what the Fodrans called engineers. They're basically what happens when everyone from one job sector gets stranded on another planet so long they form their own culture. Most present-day Amarcians aren't aware of this though.

Very much subverted for the alien species of Star City, the Ba'ren. They are very much a multi-planet, multicultural species.

Invader Zim:
Parodied; the Irken Empire includes such ridiculous territories as "Conventia, the Convention Hall Planet" and "Foodcourtia," a planet of nothing but restaurants. Justified because these planets don't seem to actually start out this way: one episode shows the Tallests after the conquest of the planet Blorch, deciding to make it a "parking garage planet" literally on the spot. The Irkens themselves are a culture based on height. Dib points out how stupid this is.
Another example might be the Planet Jackers, whose culture seems to revolve around collecting new planets to throw into their sun.
The two Abductors seen completely fail at their job, having all of one specimen in their "collection," and that's only because he's a blob creature with no legs. They mistake both Zim and a gopher for humans and Dib, an actual human, with a weasel; they also run "experiments" on their test subjects by fusing them together...with tape. Oh, and despite being capable of space travel, their method of cloaking their ship turns it into a floating whale and a giant floating baby.

In The Edge Chronicles, all of the Slaughterers are hunters and butchers, all of the shrykes are slave-trading warriors, and all of the trolls are lumberjacks. This even extends to occupations: the Leaguesmen are corrupt, the Sky-Scholars are evil, and the Earth-Scholars and Sky Pirates are good. However, oakelves, goblins, waifs, and (of course) fourthlings can be anything, and quarter-masters are either traitorous or fiercely loyal (sort-of hat).

Blackest Night explains that Earth's Hat is in fact that it doesn't wear a Hat; Earth is the most diverse planet in the universe. This is due to it being home to the Entity that brought Life to the universe. (Though Lex Luthor argues that he should get the Orange Lantern of Greed because Earth is all about consumerism and acquiring stuff.)

In the Legion of Super-Heroes, most planets are like this, with their "hat" being related to their super-power; Naltor, planet of precogs, Titan, planet of telepaths, Colu, planet of geniuses, et cetera. There used to be a rule that there could be no two members from the same planet, because "planet" and "superpower" were that synonymous.
They also have two characters from Winath who (at least some of the time) share a superpower, but that's not Winath's hat — almost all the people of Winath are identical twins, and the two Legionnaires, Lightning Lad and Lightning Lass, are Half-Identical Twins, so similar that by deeping her voice and keeping the Most Common Superpower bound, Ayla managed to impersonate Garth. In some media, the whole planet is devoted to farming.
Ultra Boy comes from Rimbor, which is The Planet Of Dark Alleys and Biker Gangs. They don't have powers, though: Jo Nah got his powers from a Space Whale.
And of course, the planet Bizmol, whose hat is eating things.
This is all justified in Legion of Super-Heroes Annual #2, which shows that all of these planets were specifically colonized a thousand years earlier by advanced humans with similar power-sets after Invasion! happened.

From The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy, the Vogons are a race of Obstructive Bureaucrats. Their correspondingly shallow personalities and total lack of creativity make them the third worst poets in the universe.
In The Restaurant at the End of the Universe the idea of the "Shoe Event Horizon" is brought forth: a situation in which a society becomes economically and emotionally depresses, everyone buys shoes to cheer themselves up, more shoes are bought so more shops and less effort are dedicated to them, as the lower quality shoes break apart more shoes are bought, repeat ad infinitum. essentially turning said planet into a both literal and societal Planet of Shoes. this happens to two planets in the series: Frogstar World B and Brontitall leading to both worlds suffering economic collapse, their surfaces being covered in geological layers of shoes and the people evolving into birds.

Subverted with the inhabitants of Planets Wait-Your-Turn, Tell-a-Lie, and Gut in 3-2-1 Penguins!, as their hats were put on by outside forces. I.E. a cutting-in-line bug caused the Wait-Your-Turners' hat to be impatience, the king pressing the button that caused Tell-a-Lie's moon to fall and him telling the Tell-a-Liars to constantly lie caused the Tell-a-Liars' hat to be dishonesty, and cereal caused the one-eyed pigs' hat to be gluttony.
Averted with the penguins themselves, one of the only things they have in common is that they're on one ship.

SpongeBob SquarePants:
Tentacle Acres in the episode "Squidville": a town where everyone is a squid who looks like Squidward. They they all seem to enjoy biking and interpretive dancing.
Some species are indeed a species of hats. All squids look the same, sound similar and are (or strive to be) insufferable geniuses with strong artistic inclinations, while all starfishes look identical and act, well... not very bright.
The crabs all appear to be greedy, long-nosed businessmen.

Warhammer 40,000: Many worlds are characterised by this — everyone from Cadia is a soldier, everyone from Krieg (German for "war") is an exceptionally grim and dour soldier in a longcoat, everyone from Catachan is Rambo. To be fair, they come from a planet sitting at the gates to a Negative Space Wedgie from hell, a (self-made) radioactive wasteland, and a Jungle Death World full of carnivorous plants and even worse animals respectively. The hats are likely survival mechanisms. For Imperial hats, the Imperium is a basically a portmanteau of the Roman Empire, the Catholic Church, the Third Reich and the U.S.S.R, so everyone being the same is not so incredible.
Eldar:
Everyone from Ulthwe is a Psyker and a Chessmaster.
Everyone from Saim-Hann is an arrogant and aggressive Barbarian on a jetbike.
Everyone from Alaitoc is a hooded loner with a sniper rifle.
Everyone from Biel-Tan is a disciplined and merciless Proud Warrior Race Guy.
Everyone from Iyanden is a Wraithguard/Wraithlord.
Space Marines:
Every White Scar is a futuristic Mongol on a bike.
Every Blood Angel is a cultured space vampire berserker.
Every Blood Raven is a Kleptomaniac.
Every Ultramarine is a vaguely Greco-Roman Jack of All Stats who follows the Codex Astartes fanatically.
Every Imperial Fist enjoys their own pain and is an expert siege engineer.
Every Salamander is a Scary Black Man, secretly Gentle Giant, with a flamethrower.
Every Raven Guard is a Combat Pragmatist with a jetpack.
Every Space Wolf is a Boisterous Bruiser With A Soft Centre Horny Viking with a fondness for wolves.
Every Dark Angel is The Atoner and sworn to secrecy about their chapter, apart from the ones who they're sworn to secrecy about, who they spend an enormous amount of time and resources hunting down...
Every Grey Knight is Incorruptible Pure Pureness incarnate, psychic, and a religious fanatic whose faith is their chief weapon; and a daemon hunter.
Every Black Templar is, as the name suggests, a religious crusader.
Every Iron Hand is a cyborg Determinator.
Chaos Space Marines:
Every World Eater is an incarnation of Ax-Crazy, and/or a Blood Knight.
Every Emperor's Child is horror with a killer guitar (apart from Fabius Bile, who is a Mad Scientist).
Every Death Guard is an implacable bag of walking filth.
Every sentient Thousand Son is a mad wizard in power armor. The others are all ghosts trapped in Space Marine armor.
Every Iron Warrior is a master siege engineer.
Every Night Lord is a psychotic serial killer akin to a Chaotic Evil Batman.
Every Alpha Legionnaire is an Ambiguously Evil Magnificent Bastard. They are also all Alpharius.
Every Word Bearer is an insane and unrelenting dark priest.
Every Black Legionnaire is out for revenge for the death of Horus.
For Space Marines and Chaos Space Marines, this is largely justified due to the fact that they all share genetic material with the primarch of their chapter - essentially, they have all been deliberately modified to be the same. Plus, most Space Marine chapters are only just north of 1000 members (10 companies of 100, plus command) who are taught similar fighting styles and recruit from one planet (or a handful of similar ones). Anyone who was not, in fact, wearing their hat would probably be questioned as a traitor. Chaos Marines tend to be much more individualistic, but come from the same parentage-of-the-legion situation, as well as many worshipping the Chaos God that closest matches with their... idiom. All berserker warriors who favor close combat and are trained and given access to chain-axes would seem similar enough, but make them more likely to all enjoy martial prowess and chopping off heads? That may as well be a hat breeding program...
Orks:
Every Bad Moon is decked out with flash. And their teef fall out and grow fast.
Every Blood Axe is a sneaky git who likes mimicking the Imperial Guard.
Every Death Skull is a looter.
Every Evil Sun is a speed-freak.
Every Goff is grim and dour and thinks melee combat is Serious Business.
Every Snakebite is a tribal who is Made of Iron.
Tau (technically not a hat for the whole culture, but every caste has a specific purpose, and you're born into your caste, with crossbreeding between castes illegal. To be fair, the ethereals are breeding the perfect warriors, builders, diplomats etc... and even though they've only had a few thousands years, they may even technically be different species by now.)
Every Ethereal is a ruler of some sort.
Every member of the Fire caste is a warrior.
Every member of the Earth caste is a builder/scientist/engineer.
Every member of the Water caste is a bureaucrat/diplomat/politician.
Every member of the Air caste is a pilot/navigator/starship crewmember.
Some of the Tau sept-worlds have specific headgear, too. Everyone from N'dras is brooding, everyone from Ke'l'shan refuses to give up, everyone from Fal'shia is a problem solver and the list goes on and on. This one is actually justified, as the Tau's non-warp "skip drives", while relatively safe, are also expensive and slow. This means Septs share ideas slowly and tend to develop their own cultures after a while. For the most part this is accepted, even planned for, as long as septs continue to follow the Greater Good, but independent breakways are starting to appear, such as the Ethereal-hostile Farsight Enclaves.
The Imperial Guard:
Everyone from Cadia is immensely proud and are vaguely like the Canadian army or the Mobile Infantry.
Everyone from Krieg is a Death Seeking World War I-era stormtrooper with a Badass Longcoat.
Everyone from Praetoria is a British redcoat, or more specifically, a Zulu extra.
Everyone from Catachan is a tough-as-nails jungle survivalist, and looks an awful lot like Rambo.
Everyone from Valhalla is a Soviet conscript (except those in the 597th, who are closer to modern soldiers).
Everyone from Tallarn is a pious desert warrior who specializes in guerilla warfare. Bedouins, not, well...
Everyone from Atilla is a Space Hun, complete with love of horses (sometimes mechanical).
Everyone from Elysia is an American-ish paratrooper.
Everyone from Mordia is a Napoleonic-era Prussian soldier with Nerves of Steel.
Everyone from Vostroya is a Ukrainian Cossack.
Everyone from Salvar is a Kleptomaniac who dresses like a Mad Max mook.

Shadowrun 3rd edition features a section with members of each of the Standard Fantasy Races giving you a brief introduction to their race. Most of them start by acknowledging their race's hat, then going on to tear it apart as racist bullcrap. Except the dwarf, since their hat is being short.
Dwarves also have a hat of being technical wizkids. The dwarf explaining this has trouble working out how to fix a toaster.
Shadowrun does a good job of deconstructing the hats/stereotypes for each race. For instance, the dwarf states that a lot of dwarves live underground because basement apartments are cheaper and they don't mind the low ceilings. Amusingly enough, the human points out how he's different from the other races by mentioning the other races' hats and stating how Humans don't have any of those.

Warhammer: Within most of the major factions, there are multiple subdivisions and groups with clear-cut regional and factional identities.
The Empire:
All Marienbugers are foppish, arrogant but irritatingly skilled dandies.
Everyone from Nuln is an engineer reeking of blackpowder.
All Reiklanders are skilled marksmen and consummate professional soldiers.
All Middenlanders are hairy barbarians with a liking for blunt weapons.
Hochlanders are accomplished hunters and crack shots with hunting rifles and longbows.
The Skaven are divided between multiple clans, each with a very specific gimmick. Among the four Great Clans, Clan Skryre are crazy techo-magical inventors; Clan Moulder are insane fleshcrafting breeders of monsters; Clan Eshin are cloaked spies and assassins; and Clan Pestilens are fanatical worshipers of plague and decay. Among the numerous minor clans, Clan Mors are regimented militarists with ambitions to Great Clan status, Clan Skab are soldiers with a lot of Stormvermin, Clan Skaar are warpstone miners, Clan Sleekit are underground navigators and sailors, Clan Volkn are a bunch of pyromaniacs, Clan Skurvy are mutinous pirates, Clan Carrion are thieves and scavengers, Clan Ektrik are all obsessed with lightning, Clan Treeeherik are Social Darwinist backstabbers even by the standards of the Skaven, and Clan Vrrrtkin are obsessed with weaponizing poison gas.
Vampire Counts: Before their rework in the 6th-7th edition, each Vampire Count was from one of several bloodlines: Von Carstein (classic Dracula-style vampires, although recently have been modeled to be a lot more bestial), Lahmians (pseudo-Egyptian female vampires. With cats), Blood Dragons (honour-bound martial powerhouses who exist only for combat and proving themselves), Strigoi (horribly deformed ghouls with no link to their humanity at all) and Necrarchs (Nosferatu-like intellectuals who are wizened but terrifyingly powerful when it comes to magic). There were abilities and artifacts that kept these ideas pure for old players and the bloodlines are still mentioned in lore, but the terms were put to rest for gameplay purposes.
Bretonnians are a curious juxtaposition of the lofty ideals of Arthurian Legend (Knight in Shining Armor, questing for the Grail, fighting monsters) and The Dung Ages (peasants are downtrodden and considered as a sentient animal at best and are used in battles as cannon fodder, the knights themselves tend to be painfully sheltered and their survival in an age of gunpowder is largely due to the protection of the Wood Elves manipulating them as a buffer and a huge mountain range between Bretonnia and the Empire). Oh, and they're also French, with all that implies.
The High Elves are split into ten kingdoms that all embody some aspect of the Tolkien-esque elf stereotype. Eataine, the oldest and richest kingdom of Ulthuan and home to the only city on the continent non-elves can visit, represents the Proud Merchant Race and cosmopolitanism. Avelorn is the ancient homeland of the elves where poets, mages and artists live in an Enchanted Forest realm, represents a hybrid of high elf and wood elf stereotypes. Ellyrion is a wide-open steppe kingdom where intelligent horses with the lifespans of elves thunder across plains, and is known for producing elite heavy cavalry and mounted archers. Caledor is a mountainous realm where mighty dragons slumber under the peaks, represents elves as Dragon Knights. Saphery is an enchanted realm where magic flows through the land and through the blood of the locals, producing some of the greatest wizards in the realm. Yvresse, once a rich and prosperous kingdom, was ravaged by Daemonic invasions and the WAAAGH of Grom the Paunch and most of its people were slain; handsome white mansions and gleaming amphitheatres now lie vacant and eroding, representing the elves as a race in decline. Cothique, a cold coastal realm battered by storms and Norscan and Druchii invasion fleets, has produced generations of hardy and brave elves who are Born Under the Sail. Chrace, a wild kingdom infested with Chaos monsters and bearing the brunt of Norscan and Druchii raids, has bred a generation of toughened and warlike elves who fortify every city and defend them with grim determination. Tiranoc, a kingdom devastated by the Sundering beyond recovery, produces disciplined and proud yet wild elves addicted to the thrill of battle and equally adept at fighting on land or at sea in traditional chariots or Skycutters. And the Shadowlands, formerly Nagarythe the homeland of Malekith and the Dark Elves, is a shattered wasteland kingdom devastated by war and sparsely populated except by bitter Ulthuani loyalists who ruthlessly hunt down Dark Elves using stealth, assassination and brutal terror and guerrilla tactics straight out of the Druchii playbook.

Super Mario Odyssey has a good chunk of areas with its residents in a theme that plays to the architecture, and the purple coin stores will sell clothes that match (which can help you get a few Moons). For a more literal example, Bonneton (also known as the Cap Kingdom), is literally inhabited by sentient hats and have hats as a recurring theme around the level.

In The Demon Princes, there's Sarkovy, the Planet of Poisoners; and Methel, the Planet of Snobs. This is partly explained by the fact that Methel is actually owned by socially elite caste, who take steps to keep others out, not least the Darsh from neighbouring Dar Sai, the Planet of Boors.

On My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic, nearly almost every single sentient species that isn't a pony has a rather one-note culture. All dragons minus Spike are greedy, aggressive and prideful monsters which act with disdain toward weaker creatures (they do have a nobler side, however), all gryphons are money-obsessed, callous and unfriendly jerks who don't get along even among themselves, and all yaks are short-tempered, obnoxious brutes with a rather poor grasp on English, to name some examples.

Doctor Who:
The Time Lords might be described as a planet of very silly hats indeed (look up images some time and try not to giggle). They tend to be portrayed as very Lawful Neutral (with frequent forays into Lawful Stupid) philosophers and scholars who one alien describes as a race of "ancient dusty senators" who were "peaceful to the point of indolence". The Doctor is very much an exception, being more of a Chaotic Good rebel and nonconformist, whom his people barely tolerate (though they sometimes need his help). There is some debate, however, on whether or not "Time Lord" is the same as "person from Gallifrey", and if this applies to the general populace of the planet or just the ruling class.
Justified in the case of both the Daleks and Cybermen, who are created races rather than natural ones. The Daleks are genetically engineered to feel no emotions but hatred and xenophobia, explaining their desire to destroy all non-Dalek life in the universe. The Cybermen have also had their emotions removed, and seek to survive by assimilating other races Borg-style. Their origins vary, however, as the classic series had them as a humanoid race that slowly lost their individuality as they replaced more and more of their bodies with technology, while the new series introduced an Alternate Universe version as the creation of one man, who intentionally removed their emotions so they could cope with the trauma of being "upgraded": they freak out and die if they remember who they are.
The Sonatarans are a Proud Warrior Race of clones made to be the best at fighting and conquering any planet that looks at them funny. They are so into the whole warrior thing that their form of punishment is forcing the perpetrator into a job as a nurse.
In "The Doctor Dances", regarding Captain Jack Harkness, the Doctor explains to Rose that in the future, humanity's Hat becomes being more or less everywhere and having sex with more or less anything.
The Ood appear to be a race of slaves, who want to be given orders. It turns out this is due to humans taking over their Hive Mind. The Ood, once freed, turn out to still be a peaceful race.
"Partners in Crime" has a literal reference when Donna is revealing how much she was banking on the Doctor being at Adipose Industries so she could take up that companion offer of his that she'd turned down:
On at least two occasions, the Eleventh Doctor has, shortly after meeting some alien being, announced its species' hat, for expository purposes, apparently without caring about tact. note ("I take it from the pathological compulsion to surrender, you're from Tivoli," and "I love the Kahler. One of the most ingenious races in the galaxy, seriously. They could build a spaceship out of Tupperware and moss.")
"The God Complex" features Gibbis, who is apparently a member of a rather pathetic alien race whose hat is being a Dirty Coward. He mentions being abducted while planting trees along a road... so a conquering army can march in the shade.
This is ultimately revealed to be a planned survival strategy – by being completely non-threatening, indeed actively welcoming to any would-be conquerors, the Tivolians avoid reprisal and annihilation. They're one of the oldest civilizations in the galaxy for a reason.
The Sarah Jane Adventures introduced the Shansheeth in "Death of the Doctor". They resemble vultures, and their hat is that they're the undertakers of the universe. Sarah Jane didn't buy it at first.
The Big Finish Doctor Who story "The Best-Laid Plans" features their cousins the Shanroth, who are all lawyers.
The Ogrons are explicitly Too Dumb to Fool.

Scrafty's hat is rebellion. They rebel against the idea of being categorised as sapient due to the misunderstanding that the Federation are imposing it on them.
Malamar have a tendency to be megalomaniacs, or at least a desire for power. Julian wonders if the non-megalomaniacal ones never leave their cities... or if they purge ones who have different ideals.

The alternate worlds or "planes" in Changing Planes by Ursula K. Le Guin are often like this; each one features a more-or-less humanoid alien race with a special ability, psychological/biological quirk, or universal tradition — such as sharing dreams, seasonal migrations, near-constant anger, becoming silent at adulthood, and extreme devotion to apparently meaningless architectural projects.

Stars Without Number: alien races usually have Lenses, essentially a way of randomly rolling for Hats. You might have a culture with, say, Curiosity and Wrath, or Collectivism and Fear, or Sagacity and Pride, as the defining cultural traits.

The Twelve Colonies of Battlestar Galactica occasionally fall into this, in function if not in populace. Aerilon was the breadbasket of the colonies, and everyone from it is perceived to be some sort of hick (which is why Baltar adopted a more upper class accent-apparently they sound like Yorkshiremen). The Gemenese believe in the literal truth of scripture. Sagittarons are downtrodden, and mad about it. Taurons are stoic and traditional, and have a mafia equivalent (depending on your perspective, they're either Space Mexicans or Space People of the Mediterranean). Capricans have it made - their planet is the center of art, culture, science, and politics. There is, however, no physical look specific to the people of any planet. Hopefully, this means that Single-Biome Planet is avoided.

In Spore, when your race reaches the Space phase, they are assigned a hat based on their actions up until that point, which usually falls into the standard sci-fi racial norms. There's Shaman, Trader, Warrior, Diplomat, Zealot, Scientist, Ecologist, Bard, Knight and Wanderernote Which can only be obtained if the player starts a new file at the space stage.

5 Years Later features the Dragons. In Ben 10: Alien Force we meet an alien Dragon who was a map maker, and he is the only member of the species we meet due to changes in plans. When the expanded universe of Five Years features them again in the And Beyond series, the entire species has a overall goal of mapping the universe instead of just having a single member of the species making a map. This is in contrast to many of the other species featured in greater focus, who don't all lean on a single trait from a single member of the species seen in series.

League of Legends yordles. One of the most distinctive characteristics of this species is that they're relatively kind-hearted and friendly towards everyone. Although this is a justified trope, since social isolation has caused many yordles to go insane or even become evil (as evident with Veigar).

Meteos, despite being a puzzle game, has a good number of these. There's a planet for robots, insomniacs, stubborn miners, shapeshifters, timid jumpers, gangsters, telepaths, bees, ninjas, and ascended psychics each.

South Park:
The reverse of this is used in the episode "Cancelled": apparently every planet except Earth has only one species, with "a planet of deer, a planet of Asians," etc. Earth was started billions of years ago with creatures from all over the universe on one planet—-as part of an intergalactic Reality Show.
A previous Marklar introduced the Marklar of Marklar. The Marklar used the Marklar "Marklar" for all Marklar. The Marklar spoke otherwise perfect Marklar.
The Jakovasaurs (which were an obvious parody of Jar-Jar Binks) are a race of morons.

In one Mickey Mouse detective story, Mickey and Goofy are employed by aliens from a planet where everyone is a thief — its perfectly legal to steal, people are suspicious of someone who doesn't, and their leader got his position because he is such a great crook. (No, not by cheating. People voted for him because he was such a dishonest man.) They need an outsider because they are temporarily hosting an artifact shared with other, friendly planets, and they don't trust anyone on their own planet — with good reason.

Several races in The Chronicles of Narnia, such as the Dufflepuds, who play Captain Obvious with such astute observations as water is powerfully wetnote Justified in that "the entire race" is one small tribe of (originally) dwarfs who were given to the wizard Coriakin to oversee in order to teach him humility, so their stupidity is presumably a design feature (Coriakin is literally a star, on enforced sabbatical for some fault that Man is not meant to know about)., and the Marsh-wiggles, an entire race of Eeyores.

Astro City:
The gorillas of Gorilla Mountain (a hidden tropical zone in Antarctica) are all trained to be warriors and protectors. Somewhat justified as Gorilla Mountain is on top of an interdimensional rift and frequently gets invaded as a result.
In "Sorrowsday", the Quiqui-a are a race of farmers devoted to raising and preparing the Jhef, the grain of their world.
The Zirrs are a race of insectoid aliens whose entire social structure is geared towards worshipping their warlord leader and serving the Zirr Empire.

Played With to Hell and back in Stellaris. All species have Traits, biological instincts which are ingrained into them to make them, say, better sociologists, more inclined to disagree with each other, or happier when they have access to enslaved subjects, and Ethos which are ideological in nature and determine which government the species has; they may, for instance, make a species more egalitarian or more authoritarian, more spiritual or more materialistic, or more warlike or peaceful. Traits can only be changed to a very limited degree via genetic manipulation, while ethos changes very often depending on factors such as how far the colony's population is from the homeworld or how much free thought is encouraged or suppressed by government policy. Populations with different ethos may even form divergent factions which may push for independence from your empire, peacefully or not.

In Stargate Atlantis, the Wraith are a race consisting solely of warriors who live to eat. In the last season, Todd the Wraith mentions that feeding on humans is the driving force in their society with little beyond that. We did finally get a small glimpse of Wraith society in Season 5's "The Queen". Judging from that episode, the entire society is divided into Queens, who seem to spend their time intimidating one another, their male Advisors/Viziers, who seem to specialize in Magnificent Bastardry, and the possibly asexual Drones, whose duties apparently involve patrolling ships and standing guard (not unlike actual Soldier Drones in Bee colonies). All of them are in thrall to a prime Queen (called The Primary in this particular segment shown, but this may not be the case with every Wraith alliance). Exactly where the various Male Wraiths who serve as scientists and field commanders (who are also uniformly errhm, uniformed in leather) fit into this mix is never really shown.

GURPS:
In GURPS Fantasy 2: The Madlands, there is the region of Savringia. Thousands of years previously, two godlike entities decides to have a contest to see which one could create the most unlikely society. So they reduced themselves to energy and used that to create City-states of Hats. Currently there are about 30 but this is subject to change. There are the more ordinary Cities of Merchants, Tradesmen, and Priests, but there are also esoteric ones like Cities of Judges, Spiders, Grays, Silence, and the Fickle.
From the same publisher comes GURPS Aliens and GURPS Fantasy Folk, which also fall under this trope.

The world of Loom is divided into xenophobic guilds, each with a specific craft, e.g. Weavers, Glassmakers, etc. Each guild's citizens seem to all bear the characteristics of their guild. For instance, the glassmakers value traits such as clarity and beauty, and have names like Luscent Bottleblower. Somewhat justified in that the thing that defines them is what their community was formed on in the first place.

A vast majority of the various D-Bees in Rifts fall neatly into this trope. The Simvan are all nomadic warriors with a psychic connection to animals, the Larmac are all lazy, the Naruni are all shrewd businessmen, etc. Occasionally exceptions to this trope will be made in the case of individual NPCs, but the description almost always includes the statement "Unlike most members of X's race..."

The various alien races from Star Control come from different varieties of Planet of Hats. The Spathi are cowardly to the point of paranoia, the Pkunk are hippy-dippy psychics, the Umgah are psychotic practical jokers, the Druuge are slavers, and there are multiple species of Scary Dogmatic Aliens (Ilwrath, Mycon, Ur-Quan Kzer-Za and Kohr-Ah) and Proud Warrior Race Guys (the Thraddash, the Shofixti, and the Yehat).
Subverted in a couple of cases with examples of My Species Doth Protest Too Much; the Vux all find humans utterly disgusting, but Admiral Zex really really likes them, to an uncomfortable degree. We are also told of a group of Spathi who are completely fearless and travel the galaxy performing daring acts. And the Zoq Fot Pik are actually three different races, whose combined hats appear to be bickering, not remembering which of them is which, and Frungy.
The Fan Discontinuity sequel Star Control 3 takes this to strange extremes, with many aliens having unbelievably specific Hats. The Owa, for instance, practice chivalry and know about antimatter science, and you never learn anything else about them.

Paperinik New Adventures has its own examples:
All Evronians are tyrannical and evil Emotion Eaters (to the point a warrant officer commanding a cut-off group of Evronians hoped to find a superior officer to be properly mistreated), with the Imperial Council, the Emperor's subspecies, and rogue members of the high caste being outright Galactic Conquerors and their nicest members being at most Noble Demons and Pragmatic Villains. Justified in that current Evronians are all clones with some modifications depending on their post and job-to the point that Porphioolon, the first known Evronian to be an actual good person, is the result of a low caste technicians messing up the process to artificially grow a high-caste one.
All Xerbians are scientists and hold a doctorate, to the point that when asking if there's a doctor they have to specify they mean a medic.
The entire population of Armadha is in the Private Military Contractors business, either by leading an army of combat robots or manufacturing and selling said robots and anything they need to fight. Justified in that Armadha is extremely poor in resources (even air is scarce), so the only thing they have to export and get what they need to live on their Death World is themselves-and as they're tough enough to live on Armadha and too stubborn to just move somewhere else, becoming mercenary soldiers was the logical choice.
The Coronan women are shown to be all rather cold and calculating and extremely concerned about their Psychic Powers, and the males (whose powers are rarer and usually weaker, to the point some guards had to call out a warning about having to face one who could fight the most powerful women) seem to be OK with it if not fully supporting. Justified in that this was a willing cultural shift following the overthrow of Moldrock: after he and his warriors were sealed away, the women with psychic powers and the scientists that took down Moldrock found themselves as the strongest in a warrior society, and to protect the rest of the universe from themselves they forced a cultural shift.
The Coronans under Moldrock were a rather violent warrior society devoted to scour the galaxy to find a good challenge and honor (to the point Moldrock felt dirty when he had to use subterfuge for the good of his followers), as shown when Moldrock and some of his followers manage to escape their seal. Even the one scientist of that era that is shown, Everett Ducklair, has rather violent tendencies fixated with violence and spent much time after Moldrock's defeat creating weapons by accident, as he was so used doing it that the moment he got distracted while inventing something he'd make it as lethal as he could.

Dragon Ball Z gives us two Planet of Hats races, the Namekians and the Saiyans. Both with justifications:
We are introduced to the Namekian race by Piccolo and God, who were original one person. Everyone in the race is green, reproduce asexually, is one gender (male), have mystical abilities, and is peace-loving with the exception of Piccolo who was the Nameless Namekian's evil side that was corrupted by living on Earth. Part of the reason for the uniformity is that the Namekians we see in the main story, with the exception of the Nameless Namekian, all came from one father after the race was brought to the brink of extinction. Which means any culture or other unique differences would be all but lost since everyone came from the same gene pool and raised by the same person. However, there are still subtypes or 'classes.' There are two castes; the Dragon Caste (consisting of those with magical abilities and being able to create Dragon Balls i.e. Dende and God) and the Warrior Caste, those who are powerful in combat (Nail). The reincarnated Piccolo (the now good one) could be considered a hybrid due to being a fusion (but lacks God's abilities of creating the Dragon Balls).
The Saiyans were introduced by Goku. Once Raditz comes we learned that all Saiyans are freaking strong, transform into giant monkeys under a full moon, are prideful, and are Blood Knights. Goku is unique among his race because he doesn't have the Saiyan bloodlust for killing. This is a combination of being raised on Earth, a head injury, and inheriting his mom's good nature (the last part being only revealed more than a decade after the original series ended). Part of the justification for the Saiyans is that there were good Saiyans, but they were banished or repressed by the more violent parts of their race. The Saiyans' dark nature was also exploited by Freeza who used them to wipe planets and made them advance too fast so they never evolved past their barbaric ways. Dragon Ball Super: Broly features a few more mild natured Saiyans who aren't warriors, even if the civilization as a whole is still a military-focused society.

Major spoilers for Martian Successor Nadesico. The Jovian Lizards are revealed to be a long forgotten human colony in the orbit of Jupiter that rebelled and became an independent nation after the federation forsook it. The Jovians' hat is that their entire society and culture is based on Gekiganger 3, an old Super Robot anime within an anime, which they treat essentially as sacred scripture.

The Chronicles of Thomas Covenant:
The Haruchai are a race of stoic proud warriors. The Insequent are a race who Walk the Earth in search of knowledge. The Elohim wear an Omniscient Morality License hat. All the Ramen (people from the Plains of Ra, not noodles) care about are their horses. The Stonedownors are obsessed with stone while their cousins the Woodhelvins are obsessed with trees.
And on the evil side of things, the Cavewights are all Ax-Crazy mooks, the ur-viles are enigmatic sorcerers, and the Croyel are parasites who offer faustian bargains. Ravers could also be said to have the hat of nature-hating omnicidal jerkasses, but this is justified by there being only three of them, and the fact that they work directly for the God of Evil.

Transformers: Cybertron is very guilty of this. There are three planets where a great deal of the action takes place: Gigantion, the giant planet, is populated by massive Transformers obsessed with construction, aided by the tiny Mini-Cons. On Velocitron, the speed planet, the fastest rule and those who don't measure up are left in the dust. And on the unnamed Jungle Planet, might doesn't make right so much as it is right. As if Cybertron, a planet populated by giant transforming robots, wasn't enough of a hat planet in its own right. (Admittedly, "giant transforming robot" is a pretty cool hat.)
Pretty much every non-Transformer alien planet in Transformers: Generation 1 was made of hat. Including earth (our hat is a construction worker's hardhat, everybody wore them).
Likewise, Transformers: ★Headmasters had a planet of humans innately in touch with nature, and a pirate planet.

Babylon 5:
The Narn start off as the Proud Warrior Race, the Minbari as Elves, the Vorlons as Mysterious Elders, and the Centauri as the declining Roman Empire. The Narn become Warrior Poets, the Minbari lose all hats due to a civil war, and the Vorlons gain (or rather, reveal) a Law hat. The Shadows also happen to gain the Chaos hat, while the Drazi steal the Proud Warrior Race. The uniformity of the alien cultures compared to humanity is lampshaded in the episode "The Parliament of Dreams," where each of the major races puts on a display of their global religion, while Sinclair arranges dozens upon dozens of people to represent humanity's multitudes of religions (even including a nonreligious atheist). Ultimately humanity's "hat" is explicitly defined (by Delenn) as community-building — humans automatically and unthinkingly weave together disparate groups into communities. The Narns also have more than one religion, but weren't seen to put on a demonstration in "The Parliament of Dreams".
The hats come off slightly as the series goes on. Londo points out that, to be a success in Centauri society, you have to be a schemer; there are plenty who don't, it's just that their families dwindle to insignificance. Delenn points out that both the religious and warrior castes have been ignoring the worker caste since Valen founded the Grey Council, and since they are fairly isolationist, we usually only get to see those who are on government business, who tend to be religious caste (possibly this is just because Delenn is religious), the military (and hence the warrior caste, although Londo does tell Earth Gov that this is not quite the same thing), or the Rangers, who are an elite undercover military force, with the obvious hats.
The Minbari hat is tradition, whichever caste it comes from. This certainly applies to both Delenn and Lennier, though sometimes we get to see Beneath the Mask.
The Abbai's hat is a focus on "community", the Brakiri's hat is business (more corporate culture as an ideal, rather than a Star Trek Ferengi-style "profit", though of course that is their ultimate goal). The Drazi's hat is pretty much "violence" — more specifically, the idea that a brawl pretty much solves any problem. The Llort's hat is basically kleptomania. The Shadows and Vorlons of course proudly promote their hats of "chaos" and "order and obedience" respectively, and try their hardest to make the younger races wear them too.

The early alternate-universe missions in City of Heroes cross this with Underground Monkeys through the re-use of enemy models. You've got the alternate Earth of werewolves, the one where the Corrupt Corporate Executive's project went horribly right, producing a Hive Mind that took over, the one where the psychic-powered clockwork robots took over, etc. They're generally referred to in-game as "enemy group Earth".

In Nine Princes in Amber, Corwin forms an army by recruiting entire species of creatures that are brutish, but a little slow. They also happen to have a predilection toward hero worship. This is all justified by the fact that as a Prince of Amber, Corwin can walk through Shadows until he finds one with an ideal species to recruit.

On Creative Galaxy, the Creative Galaxy that Arty and his friends travel throughout is full of these and this is basically a point of the show. In each installment, Arty visits a different one to help him make art. These include Paperia the paper planet, Fabrictopia the fabric planet and Paintoria the painting planet.
