Korea

Korea was a Japanese colony before it got devided after the 2. World War.  With the Red Army attacking in Manchuria and heading towards Korea, it was defined between the USSR and the USA that Korea would be temporarily split by the two of them before it would later be united as an independent nation. But north Korea is communist and South Korea democratic and a conflict arised that had ended in a stalemate. Because of this Korea never find a way to get united again. South Korea has been able to create a stable infrastructure and the people there can spend a normal life. But owing to the government and their manner of leading the country, North Korea became a country with a lot of poverty and the people there have no freedom of expression.
Especially in the last time North Korea had caused a stir with the threats they made to South Korea and the USA.
I think the North Korean government lost their common sense, because instead of improve its folks life standart it spends all their money in weapons and its army. The country needs to change its way of govern urgently or their financially and economic problems will soonly become even more dangerous for the country than they are already!
