The Korean People's Diplomatic Republic (abbreviated DPRK) is a country in East Asia. Unofficially, the country is often called North Korea.
The DPRK borders Russia, China and South Korea. The capital is Pyongyang. The country consists of nine provinces.
Officially, North Korea has a socialist system. But in practice, it is a typical totalitarian country. The Supreme Leader of the DPRK is Kim Jong Un, who took this post after the death of his father Kim Jong Il.
After constant nuclear tests on the territory of the DPRK, in 2017 a verbal confrontation began between the Korean People's Diplomatic Republic and the United States of America on the subject of armaments.
