Korea-North and South
What we already know:
(North Korea)
-oppressive government
-very secluded and isolated from world
-currently headed by Kim Jong-Un

oppressive government
-state-run socialist government that many consider to be a Stalinist dictatorship
-official name: Democratic People's
Republic of Korea (DPRK)
-notice that they say "Korea", not North Korea-they claim to be the legitimate rulers of the entire peninsula

secluded and isolated
-isolated by the government
-also somewhat isolated geographically
-after all, they are on a peninsula
-Pyongyang is the capital
-located at 39 degrees north (latitude)
