North Korea is a country that cannot function purely on its own, in the sense that it cannot feed its population. However, its rulers wish to maintain the status quo in order to continue to be able to maintain their lifestyle. In order to do this (and feed their massive army) North Korea requires foreign aid, especially from countries like the USA and South Korea, which are both loathe to give it. As a result, using the threat of nuclear weaponry is a negotiating tactic that North Korea uses to get the aid it needs from its sworn enemies.

How has the United Nations tried to limit nuclear weapons?
The UN tried to limit nuclear weapons in many ways. For example, the UN simply wanted all nations to disarm itself with all WMD (Weapons of Mass Destruction), this includes Nuclear Weapons. Also when certain countries like Iran and Korea starts a nuclear program, the UN tries to make sure that none of it is used to make Nuclear Weapons.
Why is it bad that Iran and Korea have nuclear weapons?
because that makes them stronger and us weaker because we are not allowed to make them.
Why would the North Korean leader not let South Korean people work in North Korea?
North Korea has recently declared that it is at war with South Korea. This is not really because of anything South Korea has done, but rather it is an attempt to pressure the international community which has recently enacted economic sanctions against North Korea, in an effort to discourage North Korea from pursuing its nuclear weapons program. North Korea cannot pretend to be at war with South Korea and still conduct business as usual with them. That would not make sense, and would show that the declaration of war is meaningless. Whether North Korea will take the next step, of actually invading South Korea, remains to be seen. If they do, then they will have a real war on their hands.

When did North Korea gain nuclear power?
North Korea hasn't yet gained nuclear power. North Korea has produced Nuclear Bombs, but there have only been 2 on record since 1946. Kim Jong-il cannot make more than 5 by 2050, and in which time his age will be 109. Afghanistan, Iran, Iraq, Uzbekistan, Turkey, North Korea, Israel, Russia and Belarus have all claimed weapons of mass destruction. Think of it this way: The US and British Forces are producing over 100,000 bombs a month to protect its citizens, you think just 2 bombs can have the same effect than 100,000 in the Western World? I think not. All the listed countries above will never have nuclear power, to rule or control the doings of other parliaments.
Why north Korea hates America?
North Korea is communist -- A few reasons. As stated above, North Korea is a Communist country. There is nothing a capitalist fears more than communism, as it would mean the loss of all their wealth and power. US rulers want to make sure no communist country succeeds, lest those political ideas "infect" the US. North Korea defies the US. Only the US and its friends are allowed to have satellites and nuclear weapons, but N. Korea tries to make them anyway. US rulers will say that North Korea is a horrible Dictatorship that treats its people very badly, and tries to develop nuclear weapons and power, despite what everyone else wants them to do. This is all true, but it is a hypocritical stance, since the US has supported many, many horrible dictatorships, and allowed countries like Israel, India, and Pakistan to develop nuclear technologies without making a big fuss. North Korea is small and powerless. The US can pick on N. Korea because it is relatively powerless. Russia, for instance, has a policy of, "whatever the US wants, we do the opposite." But the US tries not to notice too much, because Russia is big and powerful.

Is North Korea going to use a nuclear weapon to attack the US?
It is very unlikely that North Korea will launch a nuclear weapon against the United States, but the arbitrary and capricious nature of the North Korean government means that there is no real guarantee that North Korea will not launch a nuclear weapon. As a result, it remains a possibility, even if not a major one.
Why is North Korea trying to launch a nuclear weapon at the US?
North Korea does not actually intend to use a nuclear weapon against the United States, since there is nothing that North Korea would actually gain from using it. If North Korea launched a nuclear missile at the United States, it would immediately (1) lose the backing of China, which is the only reason that the United States refuses to invade North Korea, (2) start a hot war with the United States whose army could destroy the North Korean military, and (3) make North Korea a complete international pariah.North Korea trades on the threat that it will use a nuclear weapon against South Korea, Japan, and the United States in order to get desperately needed aid money and supplies from its enemies. It is nothing more than an extortion racket that North Korea employs as a method overcome the fact that the country makes no product worthy of export other than ginseng (which nobody wants).
