Wheel Country, Sunflower Girl

Story
Sharin no Kuni takes place in an unnamed country, often referred to as the "wheel country." Although nominally democratic, all aspects of society in this country are influenced by an elite stratum of people known as "Special High Class Individuals." Special High Class Individuals possess complete legal authority, using this to confer "obligations" - absolute rules which, if disobeyed, will result in one's confinement in a forced-labor camp - upon those whose actions are judged to be detrimental to society.
