Quotes

 * According to official myth, the DPRK is both a young revolutionary state and the only true representative of the five-thousand-year-old race. Although the unity of state and nation is stressed, the former was conceived to inspire loyalty as a political entity in its own right. Thus did the DPRK readily cede to its rival the old yin-yang flag in favor of a new flag with a red socialist star. The DPRK's emblem or seal, a star shining over a hydroelectric dam, also eschews racial symbolism for the state-political kind.

 * North Korea, arming steadily, has always held fast to its commitment to “final victory,” to unification under its own flag.
