The Northern Island Empire of Haven and Sanctuary is a gargantuan, socially progressive nation, ruled by Emperor Ghara Hasran with a fair hand, and notable for its digital currency, punitive income tax rates, and devotion to social welfare. The hard-nosed, democratic population of 12.964 billion Havenian and Sanctuarians love a good election, and the government gives them plenty of them. Universities tend to be full of students debating the merits of various civil and political rights, while businesses are tightly regulated and the wealthy viewed with suspicion.

The large, corrupt, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Administration, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Capucara. The income tax rate is 100%.

The frighteningly efficient Havenian and Sanctuarian economy, worth a remarkable 5,460 trillion Supsios a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is quite specialized, is led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Tourism, and Book Publishing. Average income is an amazing 421,192 Supsios, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Fashion models are guaranteed to be 100% genuinely as anorexic as they appear on magazine covers, passwords to nuclear codes must now contain upper and lower case characters, refugees from other nations are flocking to Haven and Sanctuary's border, and a surprising number of police officers have been arrested for Giant Sea Turtle sacrifices. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Haven and Sanctuary's national animal is the Giant Sea Turtle, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans, and its national religion is Guardian faith and other religions.

Haven and Sanctuary is ranked 247^th in the world and 10^th in the Pacific for Lowest Crime Rates, with 234.17 law-abiding acts per hour.
