They've only used one WWII figure, Hitler, so I don't know how he "represents different sides and parts of the war".

They don't usually have characters represent entire time periods anyway. They get into the personal details about their lives, and in that regard, Hamilton has so much material to work with. They didn't just pick a random name out of a hat to make a musical out of, he had a fascinating life.

Besides, most of his achievements came in the era of 1776-1800, whereas when they used Washington, Franklin, and Jefferson, most of the jokes were either about the period during and leading up to the war or after 1800 when Jefferson was president.
