ABOUT NORTH KOREA

Democratic People's Republic of Korea best known as North Korea is an Asian country on the very East side of the continent. It is located on the northern part of the Korean Peninsula. China and South Korea are its only country's boarders.

North Korea has not always been divided or independent. As every other country it has its own history.
