The Empire of Haiko is a very large, orderly nation, notable for its compulsory military service and restrictive gun laws. The cynical, devout population of 195 million Haikoese are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The large, moralistic, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Spirituality, Law & Order, and Defense. The average income tax rate is 49.4%.

The Haikoese economy, worth 9.65 trillion Mons a year, is quite specialized and mostly made up of the Trout Farming industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Information Technology, and Basket Weaving. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 49,501 Mons, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.5 times as much as the poorest.

Leader has been seen stealthily slicing fifths off bread loaves, children seem to be getting better at lying these days, guide dogs for the blind have been seen using government websites, and Pinkerton agents are called in to forcibly break up white collar strikes. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Haiko's national animal is the Pheasant, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Haiko is ranked 175,392^nd in the world and 19^th in Neptunia for Most Advanced Public Education, scoring 1,293.82 on the Edu-tellignce® Test Score.
