The Empire of Korea is a massive, environmentally stunning nation, renowned for its burgeoning tiger population. Its hard-nosed, hard-working population of 1.268 billion have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The medium-sized government appears to have no policy direction whatsoever. The average income tax rate is 19%. A healthy private sector is led by the Trout Farming, Basket Weaving, and Door-to-door Insurance Sales industries.

Crime is a problem, and the police force struggles against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. Korea's national animal is the tiger, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its currency is the won.

Korea is ranked 22nd in Eastern Europe and 80,872nd in the world for Most Subsidized Industry, scoring 0 on the Gilded Widget Scale.
