The Republic of JoongDunk is a massive, socially progressive nation, notable for its compulsory military service, complete absence of social welfare, and spontaneously combusting cars. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic population of 1.746 billion JoongDunkians live in a state of perpetual fear, as a complete breakdown of social order has led to the rise of order through biker gangs.

The minute, liberal, pro-business, outspoken government, or what there is of one, is effectively ruled by the Department of Defense, with Education also on the agenda, while International Aid and Spirituality receive no funds. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 5.2%.

The very strong JoongDunkian economy, worth 104 trillion rubles a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is fairly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Beef-Based Agriculture, Pizza Delivery, and Uranium Mining. Average income is 59,994 rubles, but there is a large disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 248,676 per year while the poor average 9,491, a ratio of 26.2 to 1.

Lending firms are subject to strict government regulations, the tenet of free speech is held dear, college students make ends meet by selling their kidneys, and organ donation is compulsory. Crime is a serious problem, probably because of the absence of a police force. JoongDunk's national animal is the porpoise.

JoongDunk is ranked 205,380^th in the world and 10^th in BL Nations for Most Cultured, scoring 64 on the Snufflebottom-Wiggendum Pentatonic Scale.
