The Corporeal States of Democratic North Korea is a gargantuan, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Bowser with an iron fist, and remarkable for its frequent executions, national health service, and compulsory gun ownership. The hard-nosed, cynical population of 19.146 billion Democratic North Koreans are ruled by a mostly-benevolent dictator, who grants the populace the freedom to live their own lives but watches carefully for anyone to slip up.

The medium-sized, corrupt, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Education, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Helsinki. The average income tax rate is 60.8%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Democratic North Korean economy, worth a remarkable 4,570 trillion Qevas 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 an enormous, deeply entrenched, quite specialized black market in Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, and Tourism. 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 an amazing 238,743 Qevas, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Brave curators do battle with disorganised government libraries, being sent to collections is more dangerous than ever, doctors prescribe medicines but they rarely dispense hope or compassion, and children are often observed making 'sand angels' in bunkers. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Democratic North Korea's national animal is the Lynx, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Atheism.

Democratic North Korea is ranked 7,936th in the world and 440th in Balder for Most Advanced Public Education, scoring 12,426.87 on the Edu-tellignce® Test Score.
