The Democratic People's Republic of Best Korea is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by Kim Jong-Un with an iron fist, and remarkable for its compulsory military service, disturbing lack of elderly people, and keen interest in outer space. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless population of 21.241 billion Best Koreans are ruled without fear or favor by a psychotic dictator, who outlaws just about everything and refers to the populace as "my little playthings."
The large, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Pyongyang. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 77.6%.
The thriving Best Korean economy, worth a remarkable 3,275 trillion Won 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, Uranium Mining, and Woodchip Exports. 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 impressive 154,190 Won, with the richest citizens earning 6.1 times as much as the poorest.
Homes have been banned from having any more than one wheel, officer recruitment and police brutality have reached an all-time high, Best Koreans wonder "if a tree falls in the woods with no credible witnesses, who wants to know?", and the government terminates employment with extreme prejudice. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Best Korea's national animal is the Chollima, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is Juche.
Best Korea is ranked 329,724th in the world and 20th in The Axis of Evil for Most Pacifist, with 4.35 cheeks turned per day.
