The Second Commonwealth of Haesan is a massive, socially progressive nation, ruled by Prime Minister Sabrina Hwang with a fair hand, and remarkable for its daily referendums, anti-smoking policies, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, hard-working, democratic population of 2.254 billion Haesanites enjoy a sensible mix of personal and economic freedoms, while the political process is open and the people's right to vote held sacrosanct.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Education, Industry, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Hwagang. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 35.3%.

The frighteningly efficient Haesanian economy, worth 282 trillion Seols a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Book Publishing, and Retail. Average income is an impressive 125,449 Seols, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 374,668 per year while the poor average 32,870, a ratio of 11.4 to 1.

Serial commas clarify the relationship between one's lackeys, the taxpayers, and kinsfolk, athletic teenagers are among the wealthiest members of society, elementary school students are required to master Bach's Chaconne in D before graduation, and the government seems embarrassed to be seen governing. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Haesan's national animal is the Silver Whale, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans.

Haesan is ranked 85,753^rd in the world and 21^st in International Democratic Union for Largest Gambling Industry, scoring 2,487.08 on the Kelly Criterion Productivity Index.
