North Korea: A Bare Bones History

North Korea: A Bare Bones History

Since its birth as a nation in 1948, North Korea has been ruled over by three generations of one brutal family. Kim Il Sung wasted little time before plunging the country into a futile war which cost more than two million people their lives. His son, Kim Jong Il, would wallow in obscene luxury as North Korea suffered one of the Twentieth Centuryâ€™s most terrible famines.

Kim Jong Un has only recently ascended to power. However, he has already ordered his own uncleâ€™s execution by antiaircraft gun.

The North Korean people are told that they are the most fortunate in the world. In reality they are the most oppressed. North Korea is a country where criticising the government, or even watching a foreign film, can lead to imprisonment and death.

North Korea: A Bare Bones History tells the story of one of the worldâ€™s most enigmatic nations. Itâ€™s an extraordinary history of war, assassination, kidnapping, terrorism, and an attempt to decapitate a rival head of state.
