The Democratic People's Republic of Kubari is a gargantuan, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by General Secretary An Myung-Dae with an iron fist, and remarkable for its state-planned economy, smutty television, and frequent executions. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless, devout population of 12.771 billion Kubari 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 large, corrupt, well-organized government prioritizes Defense, although Education, Administration, and Law & Order are also considered important. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Hyeseong. The average income tax rate is 94.8%.

The frighteningly efficient Kubari economy, worth a remarkable 3,979 trillion Xiyas 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, fairly diversified black market in Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, Uranium Mining, and Beef-Based Agriculture. 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 311,610 Xiyas, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.6 times as much as the poorest.

Nobody ever questions the unquestioned rule that questions must always be asked, every day has been a surprise since weather reporters turned to consulting ancient totems for their seven-day forecasts, tumbleweeds are seen blowing through the nation's airspace, and the police think a properly conducted criminal investigation is a real pain. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Kubari's national animal is the Grey Wolf, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Juche.

Kubari is ranked 8,959^th in the world and 52^nd in The Glorious Nations of Iwaku for Most Scientifically Advanced, scoring 430.6 on the Kurzweil Singularity Index.
