The United States of Kappacon is a gargantuan, genial nation, ruled by Oh Dae-su with a fair hand, and remarkable for its hatred of cheese, punitive income tax rates, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful, devout population of 10.068 billion Koreans are free to do what they want with their own bodies, and vote for whomever they like in elections; if they go into business, however, they are regulated to within an inch of their lives.

The enormous, liberal, socially-minded, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Welfare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Hanyang. The income tax rate is 100%.

The frighteningly efficient Korean economy, worth a remarkable 2,865 trillion Won a year, is highly specialized and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Book Publishing and Tourism. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an amazing 284,661 Won, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Truancy is as easy as clicking a camera icon, companies struggle to cover for the hordes of employees on parental leave, historical commemorations regularly devolve into militaristic jingoism, and scientific journals publish third-graders' school essays. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Kappacon's national animal is the Siberian Tiger, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Christianity.

Kappacon is ranked 290,506^th in the world and 6,336^th in The North Pacific for Most Corrupt Governments, with 0.23 kickbacks per hour.
