Known as the 21st Century reincarnation of the Imperial Japanese Empire, the **Imperial Federation of Greater Korea** (**IFGK**), also known as the **Imperial Korean Federation** (**IKF**) is a is a unified totalitarian superstate formed following the union of North and South Korea into one nation.

## History

### Formation

After Kim Jong Un died as a result of the Coronavirus, Huh Tae-Se became his successor and vowed to unite the two Koreas. South Korea's President agreed, having also pledged to unite the two Koreas. Making good on his promise, the Imperial Federation of Greater Korea was formed in early 2020. However, this was viewed by the rest of the international community as a takeover. Following the end of Korean hostility, and coinciding with global socio-economic problems, the Koreas embraced a new wave of nationalism, which called for the withdrawal of US forces from Korea.

### Korean Expansionism

America, however, refused, and Korea retaliated by declaring war on both the United States and Japan, invading the country. The blitzkrieg campaign caught both the Japanese and Americans completely off guard. It was also the first time the Koreans utilized an orbital satellite weapon to win the war: a kill-sat known as "Red Sun". Red Star decimated Japan, destroying various military bases across the nation and weakening the country enough to invade. Their impressive show of force stunned the world, which quickly turned against the IFGK. America was unable to participate in the war due to unrest back home, but the European Federation, having declared war on the IFGK in retaliation against the IFGK, rushed to aid Japan, while China formed a military alliance, known as the East Asian Coalition to protect remaining countries against the IFGK. The European Federation, with help from the East Asian Coalition, was able to successfully repel the Korean invasion of Japan. Meanwhile, the IFGK continued to annex country after country in East Asia, including Indonesia, the Philippines, Malaysia, Thailand, Vietnam, Cambodia, Laos, Myanmar, Papua New Guinea, Brunei, East Timor, and Singapore; while some countries willingly joined, others were militarily conquered and forcibly absorbed into the IFGK. By 2023, the IFGK had basically repeated what the Empire of Japan had done years earlier, with many calling the IFGK "the New Japanese Empire".

### Coup against Huh Tae-Se

During the Korean-Japanese War, Korean separatists who were disatisfied with the way Huh Tae-Se ran the country and unhappy with his hostile policies towards the West plotted to overthrow him. Taking advantage of the chaos Korea instigated by invading Japan, a Korean separatist movement known as the Korean People's Liberation and Resistance Army (KPLRA) began sabotaging Huh Tae-Se's efforts to occupy Japan. When this failed, Korean sleeper agents finally assassinated Huh Tae-Se and several of his advisors by poisoning them during a meeting. With Huh Tae-Se dead, a new leader emerged in the IFGK, Yong Chong-Su. Yong Chong-Su turned out to be an even worse leader than Huh Tae-Se, however, vowing numerous times to destroy the United States by any means necessary. However, he also ordered the immediate withdrawal of KPA forces from Japan, effectively ending the Korean-Japanese War.

## Government

The IFGK has the same government as its predecessor, North Korea: it is a highly centralized, one-party republic, dominated by the Korean Communist Party. Kim Jong-Un led the IFGK until 2020, when he died of the Coronavirus. The government's ideology is Juche.

### Military

The main military force of the IFGK is the Korean People's Army. As of 2025, the KPA has about 90 million men and seventy million women in its military. Since the Korean unification, the KPA is a modernized military after having replaced and scrapped most of its Cold War-era ordnance and upgrading the Army's training in an accelerated program. The military is commonly armed with American-made weapons and vehicles, resulting from its integration with the South Korean military, and also utilizing advanced weapons purchased from Russia and China.
