The Free Land of The New Koreanic Republic is a huge, safe nation, renowned for its compulsory military service, otherworldly petting zoo, and irreverence towards religion. The quiet, industrious population of 447 million New Koreanic Republicians are highly moralistic and fiercely conservative, in the sense that they tend to believe most things should be outlawed. People who have good jobs and work quietly at them are lauded; others are viewed with suspicion.

The medium-sized, moralistic government prioritizes Education, although Administration, Industry, and Healthcare are also considered important, while Spirituality is ignored. The average income tax rate is 28.3%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The thriving New Koreanic Republician economy, worth 31.3 trillion Won a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Woodchip Exports industry, with major contributions from Furniture Restoration, Tourism, and Door-to-door Insurance Sales. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 70,009 Won, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

People often feel unbalanced by their daily commute, aeroplane cockpits no longer have altimeters or airspeed indicators, newlywed misogynists complain about their wives keeping their maiden names, and heartfelt sentiments are mercilessly marketed by a million-Won treacle machine. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. The New Koreanic Republic's national animal is the Tiger.

The New Koreanic Republic is ranked 99,708^th in the world and 2,717^th in The North Pacific for Most Scientifically Advanced, scoring 85.71 on the Kurzweil Singularity Index.
