	Perhaps best described as a kid's tree house gone mad. This city is for the birds - literally. It is built in the eaves of the great redwood trees, as a sort of giant interconnected tree house. Quite surreal. In fact, this city really doesn't have any problems to be mentioned. Oh, except people do fall out of the trees once in a while. You don't get up after that.

	The architecture of Hara no Kuni is based around its primary environment. The people cut out great trees for homes and dwellings, used great vines as irrigation and wells, along with contemporary buildings and structures that one might find anywhere, especially on the plains on open grass. Nature didn't hold out on decking this land out, as life itself seems to be more of the artist than man.		The architecture of Hara no Kuni is based around its primary environment.

Nature didn't hold out on decking this land out, as life itself seems to be more of the artist than man. Despite Hara no Kuni's agricultural productivity, its landscape is not forgiving as it appears. Rather than bend nature to the will of man, humans had to learn to live and work alongside the flora and fauna that inhabited it first. Crops are planted in conjunction with the terrain, and soils were tilled around the trunks of great trees that are not to be slashed and burnt down.

	The [[Harakage]], or 'Grass Shadow', is is the title which the singular primary leader of the Country of Grass's Hidden Shinobi Village -Kusagakure no Sato- bears. It follows the tradition of the leaders of every village being referred to as the most important element to the village, and 'Shadow' at the end~~, which fits perfectly well with the shinobi-nin of Kusagakure, whom utilize sound to such a degree that the Harakage title should not be used in any other village, or go unused in Kusagakure no Sato~~.

It follows the tradition of the leaders of every village being referred to as the most important element to the village, and 'Shadow' at the end.

	The Harakage is quite likely the most powerful title in Hara no Kuni. Because of Hara no Kuni is so small and slightly less developed than its larger neighbors, the Daimyo of the country tend to respect the Harakage as their superior. This is not only because Kusagakure no Sato happens to be the capital of the entire country, but is also the seat of military might. Of course, given the state of the city itself the title may or may not be a good thing to hold.		The Harakage is quite likely the most powerful title in Hara no Kuni.

			Easygoing and forgiving, the people of Hara no Kuni are often pragmatic with a natural sense for time and seasons. People of Hara no Kuni are very future oriented, and focus less on one's past when judging one's character. They are not too concerned with glamorous lifestyles, and it's reflected in their mannerisms, their architecture, and even their food. Stemming from the demand for farmhands to run the farm, villagers value family bonds and wholeness. The most celebrated festivals, as a result, celebrate the unity of family. It is not uncommon for native villagers overseas to travel by foot, cattle, or any means necessary to make it back home, even if travel takes longer than the few days they return for. The nation's people are also known for their hospitality towards strangers, often adopting them into their own families if the newcomer arrived alone. Familial ties are also shared among the residents, as the successes and failures of one individual is regarded as the community's.


			'''Architecture'''

			The architecture of Hara no Kuni is based around its primary environment. The people cut out great trees for homes and dwellings, used great vines as irrigation and wells, along with contemporary buildings and structures that one might find anywhere, especially on the plains on open grass. Nature didn't hold out on decking this land out, as life itself seems to be more of the artist than man.


			'''Cuisine'''

			The food of Hara no Kuni celebrates the natural flavors of their bountiful yields, with very little alteration of the dish's taste. Salts, spices, and herbs are welcomed but not centerpieces at the table and are used very sparsely. As a general rule, the less ingredients that go into a meal, the better. Processed foods, such as bread and pastas are avoided due to this, but have become increasingly popular as international commerce continues. For large dinners, dishes are prepared on massive platters and kept in the center of the table for everyone to help themselves. Ordering a personal dish and not sharing it with others is thought to be strange, and at times rude.

			Hara no Kuni has become quite a melting pot of people, given its plentiful economic possibilities, crossroads location, as well as its lenient laws towards foreigners and even criminals. Generally it is believed the original settlers of the village were merchants who traveled without a home, and one caravan settled within the lands and soon more accrued.

			However, there is an indigenous population of plainsmen that reside within the nation, and have generally existed unbothered as both populations operated with mutual disinterest.
