During the 4th Century, the territory of present-day Hakenium was occupied by pastoral horse-riders from a region called ''Hakkad'' or ''Hagad''. Contemporary sources described them as raider tribes that waged small wars on each other. In rare moments, the tribes formed a temporary alliance with each other and went on pillaging raids abroad. After a successful raid, the tribes fought each other over the plundered goods. | ||

[[File:Rustaq Fort 02.jpg|200px|thumb|An early Hakkadian qasr or fort.]] | |||
During the final years of the Hereskus Empire (315-330 CE), when its central authority became weak, the Hakkadian raiders invaded and conquered parts of Northern [[Mahdah]]. But these gains were quickly lost again, and many Hakkadians were made into slaves by the cruel [[Mahdah|Mahdavians]].

===Hakkadian Empire=== | |||
During the 5th Century, the city of {{wp|Melle}} became important under the leadership of {{wp|Duke}} Donald or ''Dawanalid'' (425-487). The Duke expanded his city-state into a powerful local fiefdom. Quickly rising to become the most powerful lord in the land, he was treated with great respect and granted the rank of {{wp|Grand Duke}}. His bold actions and violent demeanour ensured other cities bent to his will. The iron fist of Grand Duke Donald forged the country into a solid Hakkadian Empire. Those nobles who displeased the Duke fled to other regions and cities. This is how [[Baron Huessien]] captured the Mahdavian throne and crowned himself Emir of an independent kingdom of Mahdah. When the Hakkadian Empire invaded [[Mahdah]] a second time, the Emir's descendant quickly bent the knee to preserve his own head. Once again, Mahdah became a province of Hakkad. | |||
[[File:Imperial Gate Topkapi Istanbul 2007 002.jpg|200px|thumb|Entrance to the House of Wisdom in Dagbad.]] | |||
By the 7th Century, the holy teachings of [[Nabi Hanan]] were starting to spread. From the village of [[Raj Frut]], his words spoke truth to many lords throughout [[Memopotamia]]. The teachings of Nabi Hanan led to great achievements in [[Salam]]ic {{wp|theology}} and {{wp|science}}. During the glorious spread of Salam many {{wp|heretics}} who failed to convert lost their lives. Influenced by [[Salam]], the Hakkadian Empire experienced its {{wp|Golden Age}}. In [[Dagbad]] the {{wp|House of Wisdom}} was built, where teachers and students from across Memopotamia and beyond collected and translated texts into the [[Sahrabic]] language. This Golden Age ended with the extinction of the Donaldic dynasty and siege and capture of [[Hakbar]] by [[Orioni]] in 1485. | |||
=== | ===Benevolent decline=== | ||
In the 16th Century, after the last official blood relative of [[Grand Duke Donald]] passed away, the nation lost a great deal of its central authority. In several cities, the rich merchant {{wp|guilds}} and local nobles erupted in revolt. The Grand Duke's successor exchanged political privileges for economic concessions. This turned the monarch from absolute into a {{wp|benevolent ruler}}. | |||
One of the most important figures was {{wp|Grand Duke}} [[Qarel Rider]] (year-year). The economic, social and military position of the land was improved under his rule. Diplomatic relations with the Sultanate of [[Mahdah]] were re-established, this time more in equal footing Despite these efforts, his heritage was neglected by his successors and the Hakkadian Empire continued its decline. The population, estimated at 30 million in 800 CE, was only 5 million at the start of the 19th century | |||

In 1809, [[Hannas Pasha the Great]] (1770–1812) returned from his exile in [[Sa Hara]] and became the governor of [[Dagbad]]. His rule was efficient at first but weakened as he grew older.

The people could be easily stirred up again. Social juistice laws were gifted. | |||
Hannas Pasha the Great was succeeded after a power struggle in 1812 by [[Wili Pasha]], who repelled the foreign attacks against [[Melle]] and [[Hakbar]] in 1813 and 1816. But Wili Pasha failed to prevent their domination of the {{wp|desert}}. He was assassinated in 1817. | |||
After Wili's assassination in 1817, his rival [[Hannas Pasha the Little]] took control of the government. He followed in his father's footsteps. The economy was stimulated.

The Chefdom of Hakenium, also known as Hakenium, is a nation situated on the Memopotamian subcontinent in southern Europa on Eurth. The nation's closest neighbours are Mahdah in the south and Sa Hara in the southwest. Hakenium's compassionate population is fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality. They tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.[1]
History
Horse raiders
The earliest written Hakenian history dates back to the Hereskus Empire. During the 4th Century, the territory of present-day Hakenium was occupied by pastoral horse-riders from a region called Hakkad or Hagad. Contemporary sources described them as raider tribes that waged small wars on each other. In rare moments, the tribes formed a temporary alliance with each other and went on pillaging raids abroad. After a successful raid, the tribes fought each other over the plundered goods.
Mahdavian occupation
During the final years of the Hereskus Empire (315-330 CE), when its central authority became weak, the Hakkadian raiders invaded and conquered parts of Northern Mahdah. But these gains were quickly lost again, and many Hakkadians were made into slaves by the cruel Mahdavians. The nomadic horsemen settled down and evolved from a nomadic culture into sedentary peoples. They built cities with walls and focussed on their own socio-economic interests. Pacification by the southern Mahdavian kingdom made conflicts less common. One element that persisted was the strong honour culture: disputes were still settled by the sword.
Hakkadian Empire
During the 5th Century, the city of Melle became important under the leadership of Duke Donald or Dawanalid (425-487). The Duke expanded his city-state into a powerful local fiefdom. Quickly rising to become the most powerful lord in the land, he was treated with great respect and granted the rank of Grand Duke. His bold actions and violent demeanour ensured other cities bent to his will. The iron fist of Grand Duke Donald forged the country into a solid Hakkadian Empire. Those nobles who displeased the Duke fled to other regions and cities. This is how Baron Huessien captured the Mahdavian throne and crowned himself Emir of an independent kingdom of Mahdah. When the Hakkadian Empire invaded Mahdah a second time, the Emir's descendant quickly bent the knee to preserve his own head. Once again, Mahdah became a province of Hakkad.
By the 7th Century, the holy teachings of Nabi Hanan were starting to spread. From the village of Raj Frut, his words spoke truth to many lords throughout Memopotamia. The teachings of Nabi Hanan led to great achievements in Salamic theology and science. During the glorious spread of Salam many heretics who failed to convert lost their lives. Influenced by Salam, the Hakkadian Empire experienced its Golden Age. In Dagbad the House of Wisdom was built, where teachers and students from across Memopotamia and beyond collected and translated texts into the Sahrabic language. This Golden Age ended with the extinction of the Donaldic dynasty and siege and capture of Hakbar by Orioni in 1485.
Benevolent decline
In the 16th Century, after the last official blood relative of Grand Duke Donald passed away, the nation lost a great deal of its central authority. In several cities, the rich merchant guilds and local nobles erupted in revolt. The Grand Duke's successor exchanged political privileges for economic concessions. This turned the monarch from absolute into a benevolent ruler.
One of the most important figures was Grand Duke Qarel Rider (year-year). The economic, social and military position of the land was improved under his rule. Diplomatic relations with the Sultanate of Mahdah were re-established, this time more in equal footing Despite these efforts, his heritage was neglected by his successors and the Hakkadian Empire continued its decline. The population, estimated at 30 million in 800 CE, was only 5 million at the start of the 19th century
19th Century

Geography
The Hakenium nation exercises influence in much of the Northern Memopotamian peninsula. The nation is divided into three provinces or territories: Urban zone, the Grain Belly, the Western province.
Urban zone
The main part of the country. More than half of the nation's inhabitants live here, working their behinds off, consume massively and enjoying the best education for a few euros.
- Dagbad. As the capital of the Chefdom, this northern city house houses many official buildings and locations. The government departments and administration are housed in Bull Tower #1, while the main church for the Church of Haken Rider is found in the nearby Bull Tower #2. Dagbad has a large harbour, where the Home fleet lays anchored. It also has the biggest airport in the country, Big Wili International Airport. The skyline is dominated by the skyscrapers and artificial green is planted on every possible spot. Fun fact: the average Dagbader spends 1/12 of his life in traffic.
- Hakbar. Frequented by many, tolerated by some, generally described as a boring place. Hakbar has the largest harbour in the nation and is home to the commercial fleet. The remainder of the war fleet outside Dagbad operate from here. Unemployment is very low here, contrary to the rest of Hakenium, as there is a large presence of heavy industry. Fun fact: the city produces 90% of all cars in Hakenium.
- Melle. As a former seat of power, this old capital combines both modern and historical buildings in a cacophony of styles. Several air force bases are located nearby. Numerous important companies have their HQ seats here, including the (in)famous HC Donalds Corporation.
Grain Belly
It has a large minority of Mahdavians, which are laid-back, religious and hard-working people. Cattle are bred here and farmers try to make the most of the infertile lands. The rough terrain makes them good soldiers. Many people living here have barbaric ancestors.
- Plot City. Relatively new city. Famous for its prefab buildings and its enormous tree museum, collecting over 800 varieties of national plants, many that are extinct and now can only be found here. Home to the Donaldic Armored Division, the meanest men in the army and led by Colonel Harry Plotter. They are known to be the only armoured divisions without black-and-white spotted tanks.
Western province
Bigtopians are very sceptic of the government and are always in for some more autonomy.
- Topia. Neon rules the night here. Hotels and casinos attract the beau monde of Hakenium. Villas are a plague just outside the city. The Topian Bull-ball team has been the nation's champion for the last nine years, which makes it harder for the urbanites to look down upon the Bigtopians, but they manage anyway.
Politics
The government -- a sprawling, bureaucracy-choked morass -- juggles the competing demands of Education, Social Welfare, and Healthcare. The average income tax rate is 38%, but much higher for the wealthy. A large private sector is dominated by the Information Technology industry.
Foreign Affairs
Hakenium is a founding member of The League of the Treaty (LT).[2]
Military
In 2006 the nation clashed with Ide Jima over the nearby island of Tinian.[3]
Economy
The government extracts trade concessions from poor nations in exchange for humanitarian aid, government-run brothels can be found on every street corner, the ban on cars has been repealed, and dog breeding has been banned in accordance with recent animal experimentation laws. Crime is well under control.
Culture
Major minorities include Mahdavians and Plotians. The official religion in Hakenium is The Church of Haken Rider which uses the Saint Hannes cross as its religious symbol. Hakenium's national animal is the cow and its currency is the Euro.
