The People's Republic of Democratic World is a huge, orderly nation, remarkable for its barren, inhospitable landscape, triple-decker prams, and suspicion of poets. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless population of 233 million east asians are ruled without fear or favor by a psychotic dictator, who outlaws just about everything and refers to the populace as "my little playthings."

The large, corrupt, moralistic, socially-minded, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Administration. The average income tax rate is 73.0%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but underdeveloped east asian economy, worth 11.0 trillion Won a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is a large, well-organized, quite specialized black market in Arms Manufacturing, Uranium Mining, Door-to-door Insurance Sales, and Furniture Restoration. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is 47,371 Won, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Soldiers are "encouraged" to advance by armed officers behind them, daisy chain gangs plant flowers and pick up litter, chain-gangs are often seen toting barges and lifting bales, and they say insanity is torturing the same citizens over and over again and expecting a different result. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Democratic World's national animal is the Freedom dog, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Democratic World is ranked 44,605th in the world and 62nd in Karma for Highest Foreign Aid Spending, scoring 683.64 on the Clooney Contribution Index.
