Through the, Japan reluctantly agreed to relinquish its control over the Han archipelago and allowed the re-installation of the exiled Yi dynasty. However, the of Crown Princess Yi Sen on the day of her inauguration by communist sympathisers resulted in a costly Civil War that led to Hani’s four-decade long division. During the four-decade long division, Hani experienced minor border skirmishes and two additional wars – the Second and Third Han Civil Wars before unifying under the democratic Northern government in the nineties.

Etymology
The term "Hani" most likely stems from the Chinese word 韩人 (: Hán rén) and the Korean word 한인 (: Han-in), which both mean "Han people". Over the years of social seclusion from China, Korea, and Japan, and the incorporation of the three country's language into the native Austronesian linguistic, the words were corrupted into ハニ (: Hani).

Han people refer to the Han ethnicity (including overseas Hans) as ダ요쵸 ハニ (: Dayochyo Hani), literally meaning "Hani's people". Meanwhile, Hans refer to their language as 주쵸 ハン (: Juchyo Han), which also literally means "Han language".

Government and politics
Hani is a. The, either an Emperor or an Empress, is the , but serves a strictly ceremonial role and wields little real political power. Most political power is held by the, the. He or she is appointed by the monarch, but designated by people through a popular vote. Although the monarch appoints the Premier, Hani’s Constitution explicitly states the monarch must appoint whoever the major designated in the elections.

Hani’s is the National Diet. The National Diet is, consisting of two chambers; the House of Representatives and the House of Councillors. The National Diet as a whole has seven hundred seats that are elected through popular vote when the legislature is dissolved once every six years. All adults eighteen and above have, with a secret ballot for all elected offices. Both the Premier and the members of the National Diet are elected by the people of Hani.

Politic Parties
Hani is most commonly described as a, having been dominated by the , Nationalist Party since the fifties while other parties have been marginalized. The Nationalist Party ran its campaigns based on the promotion of, , , and and the maintained rapid socioeconomic and military expansion to secure Hani’s independence. Recently however, the ousting of the military junta in the early eighties and the end of the persecution of political dissidents has allowed minority parties have flourished and grown in number.

Prior to the eighties, any parties exhibiting socialist or communist values were banned due to anti-Communist sentiment at the time. Han unification and the incorporation of the socialist South has left to the lifting of the ban. The lift has led to the rise of the Han Socialist Party, a left-leaning Shinan-based party that emphasizes individualism and equality. Originally as little as only several seats in the National Diet, it grew to encompass roughly a fourth of the total seats (176 seats out of 700 seats). This does not change that fact that every Premier since Hani’s establishment as a democratic regime is of the Nationalist Party.

Administrative regions
Hani, as of now, is divided into sixteen provinces, four metropolitan component cities, two component special cities, one special city, and one autonomous region.

LGBT rights
According to a survey done in 2009, Hani ranks as one of the most LGBT-friendly among the 40 participating countries. According to the survey, 50% of the participants support and, 30% felt neutral about the issue, and a mere 20% were hostile towards the issue.

Similarly to China (see ) prior to Western influence in the nineteenth century, the homosexual community was treated with little hostility. While it was considered normal for men or women to lust after someone of the same gender, men are expected to continue being masculine and to have an additional female partner to prove they still retain it [their masculinity]. Today, this attitude remains basically unchanged (apart from the fact that you do not need an additional female partner to be considered masculine) despite recent. Homosexual men that are deemed feminine under social standards are pressured to acquire, even against their own will. The LGBT rate in Hani is estimated to be 10%, with a disparity between the North (12.5%) and South (5%).

had been never criminalised in Hani. Imperial Japan, however, did impose some anti-LGBT policies (though it did not directly ban same-sex acts) during its occupation of Hani. These policies were proven to be highly ineffective.

Military
The Ministry of Defense and Public Security is responsible for the coordination of Hani's defense and military capability. Hani spends three percent of its gross domestic product on military spending, making Hani have the world's third highest military expenditure after China and the United States. With a strong technological–industrial complex, Hani has the second most powerful military in the world according to both the and the. The Han Armed Forces are a tri-service organization; consisting of the Han Imperial Army, the Han Imperial Air Force, and the Han Imperial Maritime Force. Hani's military policy of non-interventionism is largely attributed to Hani's neutralization in the eighties as part of the joint-Han Unification statement. Having renounced its right to declare war, the Han military is limited to either a defense-oriented role or a player in humanitarian operations unless it feels provoked by another power, which by then, according to the Constitution, gives Hani the permission to make a preemptive attack on the enemy.

During the late twentieth century, both Hani's enacted compulsory military service for all able bodied men. This conscription by the nineties, though losses in the number of personnel have been replaced by advanced arms technology and semiautonomous stealth drones. As of today, Hani has over seven million active military and reserve personnel. The reserve personnel of Hani predominantly consists of ex-conscripts with an obligation to undertake three days of training annually.

Economy
Hani is a highly, being the largest developed economy in Asia. Hani benefits from low levels of debt, an abundance of labor, high (especially in criteria related to education), high worker productivity, and low reliance on imports. According to the, Hani's economy at stood at $9.06 trillion, with its per capita income at $58,000, making it ranked third and tenth globally respectively. A major economic power, it is a member of many economic organisations, including, , the , , and the the.

Hani's economy is considered to follow the, albeit with more heavy government intervention. It is a economy where all major economic sectors, save for the services and industrial sector, are fully  and publicly owned. However, the industrial sector is instead dominated by privately-owned large business conglomerates known as the Chansu (a term that derives from the Han words "chan" [찬 ], meaning money, and "su" [ス ], meaning group), which are similar to the of Korea and the  of Japan. Meanwhile, the services sector is dominated by privately small to medium sized corporations.

Hani's economy is driven by the production and exportation of high-tech precision goods such as, , , and. It is the world's largest exporter, exporting a total $2.3 trillion worth of goods. Despite this, it is a proponent of, placing high tariffs and has trading quotas on foreign imports to limit competition with domestically produced goods, which are higher in quality, but also higher in price. However, this does not stop it from being the ninth largest importer as the economy relies on lots of, raw materials such as and , and  to meet local needs.

Primary
The Han agricultural sector comprises a mere 1.7% of the total gross domestic product. Hani has an overall self-sufficiency rate of 83.65%, having only a 67% figure for (having to import a third of its condiments to meet demands) but a 100.3% figure for rice (demand is at 13.26 million tonnes, production is at 13.3 million tonnes). Hani is a major producer of coconuts, rice, and sugar. It also leads Southeast Asian nations in the amount of fish caught by weight in tonnes.

Agriculture is heavily subsidized and protected by the government, placing heavy tariffs on foreign agricultural goods. In contrast to the United States or Japan, Hani has large-scale, state-owned in which half of the yield is given to the state while the other half are given to farmers. This milder form of prevented millions of deaths as seen in other cases of collectivization.

Labour
Hani historically had rather loose workers' rights, not introducing a until the seventies to keep labor costs low and to increase competition. However, nowadays, workers' rights are enshrined and entrenched in the new constitution. Today, Han laborers enjoy one of the highest living standards and wages, improving drastically from the seventies. The Han minimum wage is $7.5 (¢7,500) every hour, and $15,000 (¢15,000,000) per annum.

Working hours are long (an average of 2,000 hours annually), as the government sought to replace a loss of workers to the services sector and higher labor costs through heightened through the  of low skilled jobs. This has caused a low fertility rate of only 1.68 births per woman, and has spurred efforts by the government to facilitate child rearing. Long working hours also reportedly caused incidences of "working deaths" in which workers are either pushed to suicide and die of heart attacks or strokes brought by stress.

Currency
The official currency of Hani is the Han Chan (: ¢; : ). It was adopted at the end of the Han Civil War, with an original exchange value of ¢50 to $1. The Chan is divided into Sensu by a ratio of 1/100. The Chan is largely issued in the form of banknotes, with coins being obsolete due to their low value.

The value of the currency steeply fell during its economic miracle to facilitate exports, though has in the late twentieeth century. However, recently, the currency has due to its pegged currency, the, depreciating as well. Hani is currently pegged to the at ¢1,000 to $1, being the sole major currency to be so.

Languages
The is the main language of Hani, being spoken by 98.3% of the registered population. The Han language is sometimes split into two languages, but the general consensus among Han linguists is that there are two main dialects of Han – the Northern Ansan and Southern Shinan dialects, which are spoken by two thirds and a third of the population respectively. The Ansan dialect, originating in the Ansan metropolitan area, is the standardized version of Han. The differences between the two dialects have cemented after division but has recently started the process of reconciliation. Official government documents are written in the Ansan dialect.

The older form of the Han language,, was historically written with , deriving from the of India. However, as Hani sinicized, of China and  of Japan was adopted during the Tan dynasty. The former script was used to write sounds found in both Han and Chinese, while the latter script was used to write sounds only found in Han. As part of a campaign to standardize the Ansan dialect during the Yi dynasty and to sew together differences between regional dialects, Han scholars chose to replace Hanja with Japanese, and Hiragana with (known as  in Korea); creating a syllabary and simple script to learn. Today, Katakana is the most used script, however, many have pushed demands to make Koryoja the sole national script as it is arranged into syllables and has far less characters than Katakana.

Other languages spoken in Hani include, , , , and. is spoken by the Moro minority living in Doshonan.

However, its suppression and its replacement by as Hani’s main religion during its time as a Spanish, and its ban during the early Yi dynasty in favour of  has contributed to its long and steady decline. Today, Buddhism is practiced by just under a sixth of the total population.
