The Federation of Hakushiya is a massive, safe nation, ruled by President Adriana Leong with an even hand, and remarkable for its stringent health and safety legislation. The quiet, industrious population of 1.522 billion Hakushiyans have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Education, Healthcare, and Defense. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Steepole. The average income tax rate is 24.6%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but inefficient Hakushiyan economy, worth 56.8 trillion simejis a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Cheese Exports industry, with major contributions from Uranium Mining, Gambling, and Pizza Delivery. Black market activity is notable. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 37,344 simejis, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.3 times as much as the poorest.

A large-scale revitalization of the education system is underway, Hakushiya has designated Steepole as its capital city, President Adriana Leong has just been declared ruler of Hakushiya in an international press conference, and the government has declined to declare any particular religion as its 'official' one. Crime is almost non-existent, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Hakushiya's national animal is the deer, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Hakushiya is ranked 130,219^th in the world and 7^th in Funen for Largest Publishing Industry, scoring 2,271.52 on the Bella Potter Productivity e-Index.
