The United States of Kappacon is a massive, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Joseph Hwang with a fair hand, and notable for its anti-smoking policies, smutty television, and complete lack of prisons. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful, devout population of 3.457 billion Kappaconians 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, socially-minded, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Education, Welfare, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Gyeongbaek. The average income tax rate is 95.5%.

The frighteningly efficient Kappaconian economy, worth 496 trillion Won a year, is highly specialized and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Book Publishing, Trout Farming, and Tourism. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 143,719 Won, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Maxtopian villagers starve by the time Kappaconian officials even file the appropriate paperwork needed to help them, conspiracy theorists allege Gyeongbaek's new subway map resembles Satanic symbols, houses and businesses are bulldozed to make way for ever-expanding cemeteries, and landless farmers wander forlornly in the government's many national parks. 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 and Buddhism.

Kappacon is ranked 221,239^th in the world and 8,561^st in The North Pacific for Most Secular, with 11.59 Atheism Rate.
