Peace, Progress & Pleasure is a collection of logos of brands that cannot possibly exist in today's world, but could in a world that would overcome its issues. Each logo is available on a t-shirt, and features a political scenario that would probably make the world a better place -- examples include reunification of Korea.
The goal of Peace, Progress and Pleasure is to draw the world in brighter colors and think more about unity than war. The first edition of brands features Saudi Arabia, Somalia, North Korea and one of China's troubled Northern provinces. Logos can be downloaded for a small fee and printed on whatever merchandise you can think of, though t-shirts are the most popular.
