Communism in North Korea began after World War II, when Korea was divided into two zones of occupation: the Soviet Union controlled the north, and the United States controlled the south. The Korean Workers' Party was established in 1946, and Kim Il-sung, a communist leader backed by the USSR, rose to power. In 1948, the Democratic People's Republic of Korea (North Korea) was officially proclaimed, solidifying its communist regime. The Korean War (1950-1953) further entrenched communism in the north, leading to the establishment of a totalitarian state.
