The Empire of Korean-Joseon is a colossal, genial nation, ruled by 단군 황제 with a fair hand, and remarkable for its keen interest in outer space, frequent executions, and compulsory gun ownership. The compassionate, democratic population of 7.086 billion Koreans enjoy a sensible mix of personal and economic freedoms, while the political process is open and the people's right to vote held sacrosanct.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Defense, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Seoul. The average income tax rate is 69.3%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Korean economy, worth 809 trillion Won a year, is led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Arms Manufacturing, and Book Publishing. Average income is an impressive 114,240 Won, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The nation was recently voted as the most stylish in Fodlan, recruitment posters proclaim the army to be both fabulous and fashionable, all astronauts are hot twenty-something models selected because they have 'the right stuff', and napalm is the tool of choice for disabling eco-unfriendly forestry operations. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Korean-Joseon's national animal is the Tiger, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Musok.

Korean-Joseon is ranked 19,670th in the world and 3rd in Fodlan for Most Cultured, scoring 92 on the Snufflebottom-Wiggendum Pentatonic Scale.
