Editing Hesperida (section)

===Populace===
Hesperida is a land of great ethnic, socioeconomic, and cultural diversity.  While portions of western Hesperida like Greater Acadia, Lauchenoiria, and Kerlile have large distances between their urban hubs and have some of the lowest population densities in the IDU, the eastern portion of the country is highly urbanized and densely populated.  Suyang, Seimei, Laeralsford, and Puri Rimbawan all are sprawling megacities, while New Liverpool and Iustitia City are smaller in absolute numbers but are at the core of dense urban agglomerations which comprise a significant proportion of their nations' population.  In eastern Hesperida, it is not uncommon to have four in five residents in a nation living in an urban area; this is most stark in Misumi, where over 90% of residents live in a city.  In the western portions of the continent, excepting the city-state of Grundhavn, this level of density is unheard of.

Hesperidans typically have longer than average lifespans, driven by rapid growth in many of the continent's poorest nations since the 1980s.  Hesperidans are usually a bit healthier than the average IDUvian, either due for a penchant for the outdoors like in many western nations, notably Lauchenoiria, or as a result of diet and constitution as in the case in many eastern countries like Haesan.  However, due to social stigma and other societal pressures, many eastern Hesperidan countries have high rates of stress and anxiety, much of which goes undiagnosed.  Other illnesses, like eating disorders, are also disproportionately common in those nations.
