The United States of Kappacon is a gargantuan, safe nation, ruled by Oh Dae-su with a fair hand, and remarkable for its museums and concert halls, smutty television, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful, devout population of 10.03 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 2,847 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 283,853 Won, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

People across the world seek to be healthier by eliminating carbs, the atmosphere in Korean boardrooms is turning more gay, small children are learning a lot of new words from a teacher with Tourette Syndrome, and military pilots spend more time scraping feathers off their engines than flying their aircraft. 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 1,056^th in the world and 38^th in The North Pacific for Largest Publishing Industry, scoring 38,799.7 on the Bella Potter Productivity e-Index.
