After World War II, Korea was divided along the 38th parallel into two zones of occupation: the Soviet Union controlled the north, while the United States managed the south. In 1948, this division led to the establishment of two separate governments: the Democratic People's Republic of Korea (North Korea) in the north and the Republic of Korea (South Korea) in the south. Tensions escalated, culminating in the Korean War from 1950 to 1953, which solidified the divide and resulted in a heavily militarized border between the two nations. North Korea, under Kim Il-sung, became a communist state with a centralized economy and a focus on military strength.

How has communism affected North Korea?

Officially, the Democratic People's Republic of Korea (commonly known as "North Korea" and "Korea DPR") operates under a Juche socialist republic-type government, not a communism. However, in the eyes of the outside public, North Korea is a communist country and, in some extreme views, a Dictatorship.A Juche-style government relies heavily on the motto of "self-dependence". Because of this, North Korea is an extremely isolated nation, torn from the outside world. And, as a result, North Korea's economy reflects on this.
