Hatari (Japanese: ハタリ Hatari; PAL: Hatary) is a nation of Tellius, isolated from the rest of the continent by the Desert of Death. It is the only place in Tellius where the wolf laguz clan still lives. Its existence, and the survival of its wolf laguz, was completely unknown to the rest of Tellius until the year 648 when its queen, Nailah, crossed the Desert of Death and met Micaiah.

Geography
Hatari is situated in the far north-east of Tellius, on the other side of the Desert of Death. Because of its isolation from the rest of the world, Hatari's society is one of the few which still speaks exclusively in the ancient language and has no knowledge at all of the modern Tellius language, since it was invented after the Great Flood.[1]
History
Hatari was established by survivors of the Great Flood, both beorc and laguz, who were cut off from the rest of Tellius by the floods.[2] They believed themselves to be the only surviving people and did not know that other countries existed on the other side of the Desert of Death, just as the other seven countries of Tellius had no knowledge of Hatari and believed themselves to be the only survivors.[3] In addition to the population of laguz and beorc, a small number of Branded lived in Hatari; unlike the rest of Tellius, Hatari had no knowledge of the myth that the existence of the Branded was a crime against the goddess, so its Branded population was never persecuted and lived normally among the laguz and beorc.[2] Hatari's stories about the Great Flood also diverged from those of the rest of Tellius, as they came to believe that the flood had been a divine punishment rather than an act of evil.[4]
The existence of Hatari was rumored in legends in the rest of Tellius,[5] but its existence would not be confirmed for eight hundred years.[6] After the Serenes Massacre occurred in the year 625, Rafiel of Serenes mysteriously ended up in the Desert of Death, where he was eventually found wandering the desert by Hatari's queen, Nailah, marking the first meeting of the people of Hatari and the people of western Tellius in centuries.[7][8] Twenty years later, Nailah, Rafiel, and Volug traveled through the desert to reach the west, aiming to encounter the laguz of other countries.[6] On her journey she became involved in the battle for Daein's liberation, the conflict between the Laguz Alliance and Begnion, and the judgement of the goddess Ashera. The three returned to Hatari after these conflicts were resolved, with Nailah hoping to migrate the nation across the desert to rejoin the rest of Tellius.[9]
