Obviously not markets, everyone has those, also communist countries.
They are simply regulated differently.
That is ultra capitalism, the final step before fascism/corporatism which capitalism ultimately leads to by design.
It hasn't existed anywhere before - the OG fascist countries were built on top of fairly typical market economies for the time, with actually had much more interventionism than now, maybe China-level.
You didn't give a third option, so I guess we're done.
