North Korea is the world's most severe communist [[dictatorship]] and one of the poorest and most [[famine]]-stricken nations on earth. North Korea has a centralized government under the rigid control of the communist [[Workers' Party of Korea]] (WPK), to which all government officials belong. The Democratic Socialist Republic of Korea (DPRK) is notorious for its heavy use of political propaganda, revisionist history and [[cult of personality]] surrounding Kthe Kim family. The media is heavily controlled and only state-controlled radio and television broadcasts are permitted for public consumption. This control allows the regime to propagate its many lies and perceptions of the country.
Within North Korea, access to the [[internet]] is limited to a select few people.<ref name=cjfe/> Other residents of North Korea who are privileged enough to have access to computers can only access a local intranet called Kwangmyong, meaning "bright". Content hosted on the Kwangmyong is tightly restricted, and the email and chat messages sent on it are monitored.<ref>http://globalnews.ca/news/1124882/surfing-the-intranet-north-koreas-authoritarian-alternative-to-the-world-wide-web/</ref>
