The Dirty Commie Utopia of Raerok is a colossal, cultured nation, ruled by Kim Jong Illest with an even hand, and notable for its free-roaming dinosaurs, daily referendums, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate population of 6.251 billion Raeroktopians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The enormous, corrupt, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Defense, and Environment. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Kimjongilingrad. The average income tax rate is 91.6%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The powerhouse Raeroktopian economy, worth 642 trillion radish kimchi cubes a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is quite specialized, is led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Book Publishing, Tourism, and Beef-Based Agriculture. Average income is an impressive 102,801 radish kimchi cubes, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Kim Jong Illest tells rebellious ministers to "drop and give me twenty", the police are destroying all photographic evidence of their own existence, the navy is chrome-plating its battleships to prevent rust, and former stunt pilots are unable to pass the licence test to fly a drone. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Raerok's national animal is the stinky leftcom, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is reddit atheism.

Raerok is ranked 25,388th in the world and 36th in The Internationale for Most Scientifically Advanced, scoring 244.54 on the Kurzweil Singularity Index.
