			{{main\|Politics of Higashika}}

			The government of Higashika is a unitary presidential republic. The executive branch of the government is held by the [[President of Higashika\|president]] (攝政 ''shipshi''), who is directly elected by the people. The president then appoints their [[Vice President of Higashika\|vice president]] (副攝政 ''peukshipshi'') and cabinet of ministers (官司 ''gwonseu''). The legislative branch of the government is the [[National Cabinet of Higashika\|National Cabinet]] (國王府 ''Fak-Wangpu''), which is indirectly elected by the people.

	===Administrative divisions===		===Administrative divisions===
			{{main\|Administrative divisions of Higashika}}

			Higashika is divided into 5 island provinces (島나地州 ''dáo na daidu''): [[Onmi Island (province)\|Onmi Island]], [[Dangnushima Island (province)\|Dangnushima Island]], [[Dhemeng Island (province)\|Dhemeng Island]], [[Hige Island (province)\|Hige Island]] and [[Aeron Island (province)\|Aeron Island]]. Each city is then subdivided into cities (城 ''deng'') and towns (邑 ''ip''). Within cities and towns are districts (區 ''keo''), which are for the most part coterminous with urban areas (城裡 ''dengrí''). For electoral purposes, each district is subdivided into a number of constituencies (選區 ''swónkeo'')

			Higashikan is the official language of the country, spoken by the vast majority of people. It is a Sinitic language, sharing a common ancestor with modern varieties of Chinese in Old Chinese. English and varieties of Chinese, primarily Mandarin, are also spoken by a significant portion of the population, as they are taught in schools from a young age.

			===Religion===
			{{main\|Religion in Higashika}}

			Religion in Higashika is characterized by a multi-faith diversity of beliefs and practices. Most Higashikans practice Chinese folk religion or Buddhism, mostly of the Chinese variety. Most followers of Buddhism also practice Shintoism, particularly Ryukyu Shintoism, characterized by ancestor worship. Other religions were brought to Higashika through trade with the west, chief among those is Christianity, which was brought by Dutch and Portuguese missionaries. There is a more or less equal number of Protestants (primarily Calvinist) and Catholic followers. Finally, there has been in the modern era a growing number of people who now identify as non-religious, though most still maintain Chinese folk practices to some degree.

	===Sports===		===Sports===
			{{main\|Sports in Higashika}}

			Traditionally, sports in Higashika were much the same as in mainland Japan, with the most popular being sumo and archery. During the Ryukyu Kingdom era, these truly established themselves as a popular way to spend time. However, after the Meiji Restoration, many Western sports would be introduced into Japanese (and by extension Higashikan) culture, primarily track and field events, baseball, association football and rugby union. Baseball especially greatly rose in popularity under American occupation after World War II. Following China’s rise to global superpower, some sports gained in popularity in the 2000s such as badminton, table tennis, fencing and chess. Being an island nation, Higashika is surrounded by water and many Higashikans therefore enjoy water sports, such as swimming, surf, kayaking and rowing. Lastly, there has been a growing Esports scene in Higashika since the beginning of the 2020s, which has largely been attributed to the COVID-19 pandemic.
