North Korea - Part 1
Why ?
I`ve decided to write just a little bit about North Korea. In fact, I want to ask some Why's ? Firstly, I want to ask: Why does North Korea Government is so concerned about to become a Power, Ultra, Mega, Nuclear Military Potence ? You can see below some facts about the price of the North Korea Nuclear Program and take your own judgement about it.

Human rights
Main article: Human rights in North Korea
Amnesty International and other human rights organizations, including the North American Free Speech Association, accuse North Korea of having one of the worst human rights records of any nation, severely restricting most freedoms, including freedom of speech and freedom of movement, both inside the country and abroad.
North Korean exiles have testified as to the existence of detention camps with an estimated 150,000 to 200,000 inmates, and have reported torture, starvation, rape, murder and forced labour. [18] [19] Japanese television aired what it said was footage of a prison camp [20]. In some of the camps, US officials and former inmates say the annual mortality rate approaches 20% to 25% [21]. An estimated two million civilians have been killed by the government[11] A former prison guard and army intelligence officer said that in one camp, chemical weapons were tested on prisoners in a gas chamber [22]. According to a former prisoner, pregnant women inside the camps are often forced to have abortions or the newborn child is killed [23]. A recent TIME magazine article documents a young woman's forced abortion in a prison camp and subsequent escape from North Korea. The government of North Korea refuses to admit independent human rights observers to the state.
