From what I understand about totalitarian‚ it’s a government centered state‚ which North Korea is a totalitarian state where the government doesn’t tolerate any public deviation from the official line. Simply mishandling a portrait of leader Kim Jong Il is considered a crime. As I watched an online video I understood that it was also amazing to see footage of daily life in Korea‚ the absolute most impenetrable country in the world for outsiders and media.

Life under an authoritarian government would be horrifically empty. An authoritarian government controls everything in your life. They control the information you see‚ the help you receive‚ where you can go‚ and even the food you eat. This restricts learning‚ growth‚ and the human spirit. In North Korea the citizens see Kim as a God. One blind woman wished to see him so badly she cried just thinking about it.
