The People For Ethical Treatment of Wonseon is a massive, socially progressive nation, ruled by Mao Zedong with an even hand, and remarkable for its state-planned economy, multi-spousal wedding ceremonies, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate population of 1.702 billion Wonseonese are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The large, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Welfare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Sigma Mao City. The average income tax rate is 69.8%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The all-consuming Wonseonese economy, worth 159 trillion Rejected Dollars a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is quite specialized, is led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism and Furniture Restoration. Average income is 93,423 Rejected Dollars, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Internet moderators work overtime to remove memes comparing Mao Zedong to cartoon bears, citizens are encouraged to report friends, family members or co-workers who seem depressed to the government for "counselling", onions have been banned due to their tendency to cause eye irritation, and kids these days know how to throw a proper punch. Crime is totally unknown. Wonseon's national animal is the Hellhound, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Maoism.

Wonseon is ranked 15,301^st in the world and 699^th in The North Pacific for Most Beautiful Environments, with 1,218.18 pounds of wildlife per square mile.
