Etymology
There are two main hypothesis of how the name Haifa came about. One hypothesis is that the name relates to the Haifan (Hebrew) root, CHFA, which means “to cover, to hide”, perhaps because of Lake Morovia being "hidden" in the middle of the Keltian continent. Another interpretation links the name with the word CHOF, beach, or “beautiful beach.”
History
Haifa was founded over the course of several decades by serial migratory waves of Hammish citizens from the state of Anglia and Israat along the shores of Lake Morovia. During their migration, they came into contact with several indigenous groups to the area, which led to their mixing over several generations and creating a distinct Haifan culture. It became an independent state called the Free State of Haifa under the leadership of its first Prime Minister, Herman Wozhleweitz.
Free State of Haifa
During its founding years, Haifa was mainly an agricultural nation. That changed when enormous deposits of diamonds and other gems south of the city of Abeis. Under the leadership of its second Prime Minister, George Perlman, the Free State built a thriving banking and finance sector as the economy liberalized and the economy became flush with the proceed of economic growth and mining.

Haifa as part of Caputia
The state of Haifa was the third largest state in the Kingdom of the Union of Caputia by population. Abeis was the most populous city in Caputian Haifa and among the largest in Caputia, while Keybir-Aviv was second-most populous in the state. Other major cities included Lewisburg and Melusinia. Haifa under Caputian rule was nicknamed "The Free State" to signify its former status as an independent republic and as a reminder of the state's struggle during the Hammish Civil War.
Historically four major industries shaped the Haifan economy under Caputian rule: diamond mining, agriculture, banking and finance, fishing, and technology. With a growing base of industry, the state led in many industries, including agriculture, jewelry, computers and electronics, aerospace, and biomedical sciences.
