The DPRK is literally the perfect example of a civilization building game where you have everything you CAN max out, maxed out, and are only kneecapped by the game having a pre determined point at which you are allowed new resources. So the second you get said resources you just fucking explode out of the gate.
They are doing all they can with limited resources. They have the work force, education, drive, etc. Once more countries stop caring about what the US says and starts trading with them they will advance so rapidly they might have to worry about cultural whiplash.
Next few decades could be glorious to watch. We might see the west go into a steep decline while all the countries the west has been deriding and jeering at will start developing rapidly.
I just want to live long enough to see the US abandon SK and see how quickly it falls.
If US ends up starting a war with Iran, which is starting to look increasingly likely, they simply might not be in a position to do anything for SK.
Idk how they intend to start a war with anyone. What do they even have left they haven't shipped off to Ukraine or Isn'treal?
Right, like they're openly admitting that the stocks are running dry. What's the thought process here?
KCNA also recognized a few days ago that America's military is spread thin, and given that for the first time in decades the DPRK has declared peaceful reunification impossible I think we could see a Korean War 2. Korean War 1, USA had 50% of the world's GDP and nuclear supremacy while the KPA and PVA had WW1 era weapons. Now, DPRK homegrown arms have been proven to wreck American proxies in Syria, Lebanon, Palestine, and now possibly Ukraine. If there was any time to retake the South it would be now.
And what about Taiwan?
I think a lot of will depend on the election there. If DPP gets kicked out then US might end up losing grip on it entirely.
