Educate me on AES countries (hexbear.net)

I'm a baby Marxist, and I'm not particularly knowledgeable on AES countries. I've really enjoyed finding effort posts debunking propaganda and talking about the actual state of them, but dredging them up with the search feature isn't particularly effective. I'd love to hear what people have to say, especially about China and the DPRK, since those are the ones that come up most frequently.
