A small nation occupying the territory once known as North Korean, comprised of a predominantly Zhuli/Daqinren populace descended from those left behind after the Termination.
Withdrawn yet nonhostile, their interactions with the rest of humanity were shaped by the American Union's initial crisis aid following the Termination, which made no differentiation between the Zhuli who had gathered in North Korea around their remaining nuclear weapons and the commonplace Chinese citizen in the ruins of the mainland. This was furthered by the close proximity to South Korea, already occupied by the American Union, and the transition from an overtly hostile neighboring rogue state into an unknown was met with some optimism to the south.
This would shape future international interactions with the Korean Enclave; one of guarded sympathy, ironically perhaps more peaceable than with the previous nation that had occupied the territory.
In the years following the Termination, even the understanding of what had happened within the CCP did not significantly dampen international feelings towards the Enclave; they remained considered a refugee state rather than a rogue or terrorist state, and received significant external aid as they worked towards establishing self-sufficiency. This aid did come with some caveats from the major supernations however, including the allowance of nuclear inspectors and some consensual scientific research, but humanity chose not to push what many saw as a recently freed slave-species to wholly disarm, given their observed behavior towards the rest of humanity outside of their masters.
