The Sunset in July of Haku is a colossal, safe nation, ruled by Haku with an even hand, and remarkable for its infamous sell-swords and suspicion of poets. The hard-working population of 8.979 billion Hakuans 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, Defense, and Welfare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Haku. The average income tax rate is 21.5%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The Hakuan economy, worth 363 trillion Hakus a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Basket Weaving, Door-to-door Insurance Sales, and Cheese Exports. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 40,473 Hakus, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.0 times as much as the poorest.

Hakuan husbands are dead good at fathering kids, all statues and paintings of dogs are being destroyed to avoid offending cat-lovers, parents must choose their children's names from a government-mandated master list, and politicians sweat as journalists scour internet archives for any mention of them. Crime is almost non-existent, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Haku's national animal is the Dragon and its national religion is Atheist.

Haku is ranked 199,362^nd in the world and 413^th in The Order of the Grey Wardens for Most Patriotic, with 5.11 flags saluted per person per day.
