The People For Ethical Treatment of Wonseon is a massive, genial nation, ruled by Mao Zedong with an even hand, and renowned for its vat-grown people, punitive income tax rates, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate population of 1.708 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 Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Sigma Mao City. The average income tax rate is 69.9%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The all-consuming Wonseonese economy, worth 160 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 93,800 Rejected Dollars, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

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, kids these days know how to throw a proper punch, and citizens are grown in vats. 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 222,893^rd in the world and 4,726^th in The North Pacific for Largest Automobile Manufacturing Sector, scoring -5.1 on the Henry Ford Productivity Index.
