The Community of Psykorea is a gargantuan, orderly nation, renowned for its smutty television, keen interest in outer space, and parental licensing program. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless population of 13.277 billion Psykoreans are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The medium-sized, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government prioritizes Defense, although Law & Order, Industry, and Education are also considered important, while Welfare and Social Policy receive no funds. The average income tax rate is 97.3%.

The frighteningly efficient Psykorean economy, worth a remarkable 7,716 trillion Ankhs a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is an enormous, deeply entrenched, broadly diversified black market in Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, Retail, and Uranium Mining. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is a breathtaking 581,177 Ankhs, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 1,893,542 per year while the poor average 134,290, a ratio of 14.1 to 1.

Politicians are often seen with soldiers pointing guns at their heads, peace talks occasionally rack up a higher body count than the wars they seek to stop, AIs make up a majority of the long-term warehouse population, and trade deals are born to the sound of a royal woman's anguished screams. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Psykorea's national animal is the Dinosaur, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Psykorea is ranked 714th in the world and 8th in the South Pacific for Largest Timber Woodchipping Industry, scoring 23,140.23 on the Tasmanian Pulp Environmental Export Index.
