Hatsunia: imagining a more futuristic Japan-like country (with Miku as a major cultural icon)

I saw "Moeji" chocolate bars in KEI's "unofficial" Miku manga, so I thought that was the perfect name for Hatsunia's Meiji equivalent.



Also, Hatsunia is intended to be a more benevolent antithesis to Imperial Japan's brutality and oppressiveness, so it is part of the Mutual East Asian Cooperation Union (a genuine "co-prosperity sphere"). They have a cultural expo every year.

It's not that I'm not a Vocaloid fan, but I'm missing a lot of the easter eggs ;~;

Like is Fukaya a reference to Fukase or what?
I didn't want to make Hatsunia only about Miku/Vocaloid (and I'm not really familiar with other Vocaloids to be honest). Fukaya is a reference to a city with a negi-themed mascot.

Yonago and some other prefectures are also references. And Yonago City had a collab with Miku, too!
