Hana'ea

Hana'ea (Hana'ean: 干耒; IPA: ), officially the Independent State of Hana'ea (Hana'ean: 國革夫干耒; IPA: ), is a country in Haegye consisting of two atolls (Hana'ea and Manau) surrounded by the Western Ocean. The capital city is Ko'otea. Reflecting the far-western extent of Haegye civilization, Hana'ea developed its own distinct Hana'ean language and culture. With a land area of only 75 square kilometers, Hana'ea is the smallest country in the world.

Administrative divisions
Hana'ea is divided into two kouna (lit. "commanderies," a usage apparently derived from 郡), which comprise the atolls of Hana'ea and Manau, respectively. Hana'ea Atoll is further subdivided into three tafatafa (lit. "political sides," originally referring to the metaphorical "side" of a chieftain): East Motogo, West Motogo, and Motukafo. With the exception of Ko'otea, which is constitutionally devolved various municipal powers and guaranteed the ability to elect its own town leadership, all administrative divisions below the kouna and tafatafa are informal.

The President of Hana'ea is responsible for nominating officials to manage these districts, pending confirmation by the Legislative Assembly. Nominees are frequently descendants of the old Hana'ean chieftains and serve ten-year terms unless they are removed by a Legislative Assembly resolution.

For the purposes of elections, the country is divided into twenty districts, each of which elects one delegate through the system. Because these districts are constitutionally mandated, they are not required to conform to the principle of equal representation, leading one prominent to refer to Hana'ea as "a notorious small-scale example of  and the effects they can have on  as well as ."

Geography
Located in Haegye, Hana'ea is an in the Western Ocean directly northwest of Malu'i and roughly halfway between Namju and Lhokseumawe. It consists of two atolls comprising eight islands, six of which are inhabited. These two atolls are separated by roughly 80 kilometers. The larger of the two atolls, Hana'ea, is home to eighty percent of the country's population and surrounds a large 231 square kilometer lagoon. The nation's capital of Ko'otea is located on the largest of its islands, named Motogo.

Geologically, both of Hanaea's atolls consist of a limestone base formed by uplifted coral formations. Consequently, Hana'ea is one of the lowest countries in the world, reaching a maximum elevation of only 7.3 metres. This makes Hana'ea highly susceptible to sea level rise from and has led prominent politicians like the country's current president, Afa Tahiga Mahina'aka to be vocal in their criticism of international high-polluters, although politicians from the opposition party, MaMO, have decried this rhetoric in recent years as "grandstanding" that "fails to offer real solutions to the climate change crisis faced by today's Hana'eans."

Climate
Hana'ea experiences two distinct seasons: a wet season from Sibirwol to Sawol and a dry season from Owol to Siwol. This occurs as a result of Hanaea's position in the Western Ocean, which renders it susceptible to.
