Suyang is the most populous city in [[Haesan]], and one of the largest in the [[International Democratic Union]].  The city lies along the coast of its namesake bay, and is split down the middle by the Su River (Sugang).  The city is congruous with its namesake province, and its metropolitan government manages all provincial affairs.  First named on maps recovered from Haemi archives dated to around 200 BCE, Suyang has been continuously occupied for over two milleniaSuyang served as the capital of Haesan until 1964, including being the seat of government for the classical Dominion of United Haesan as well as serving as the British government during the colonial periodSuyang was the headquarters of the Haesanite Resistance and was a major base of operations for foreign troops during the Reclamation of Haesan during the Great WarNowadays, Suyang is noted for its world-class universities and public transit system, its thriving economic scene, its varied demographic and gastronomic landscape, and its rise as a global cultural hub as the epicenter of the Hae-pop industry and as a major location for designer clothing brands.

Anfa (L'Cité en Foi), the "second city" of Haesan, is a key economic, financial, and cultural hub in the East of Hesperida. Located on Haesan's northern coast on the Gulf of Haesan, at the mouth of the Marchal River, the city has historically been a key nexus for trade and commerce. First settled by Haemi migrants during the first century BCE, the city was formally founded as Bukcheon (북천시) in 632 during the reign of the Dukedom of Lee. During the French colonial period, Anfa was the seat of French government, and at this time took on much of its present characteristic identity, including widespread use of French language and omnipresence of French culture. During the War of Haesanite Succession, the city was sieged by Opthelian forces, and during its bombardment, was largely destroyed. Afterwards, as the Opthelians contracted "Cité en Foi" to "Anfa," the city became an experiment in modern urban planning notable for its many parks, greenways, and monumental squares. Today the city is one of the major financial hubs of Hesperida, with a high concentration of finance, investments, and consulting firms, and hosting the Bourse Anfois, the exchange with the highest volume of commodities trading in the IDU. Anfa is also a hub for gastronomy, as the headquarters of the Seollim Guide, and a mixing pot of classical French techniques with Haesanite or modern flavors and practices. Anfa is also a major fashion design center and anchors much of the textiles manufacturing of Haesan's northern coast.
