Korea - North Korea
It is very hard to travel to North Korea these days. There are very strict rules, and you are always watched while you are visiting the country. North Koreans believe that America is a dangerous enemy, and are developing nuclear weapons to defend themselves against them.


A military parade through the streets



Kim Jong-il, head of the KWP and the military, runs the country. Kim holds several official titles, the most important being General Secretary of the Workers' Party of Korea, Chairman of the National Defense Commission and Supreme Commander of the Korean People's Army. Within the country he is also known by the affectionate title of "Dear Leader". His pictures are everywhere - like this train station.
