But think of the impressive military parades.
They’re cosplaying a successful country
Maybe they are a cargo cult? Build big streets and the wealth will come!
Those roads are probably for police and military so they can arrive quickly in case of invasion or citizens becoming uppity.
Also why the US highway system was built, btw. The president who championed it, Eisenhower, was the commander of US allied forces during WW2. While there were other benefits, his goal was to be able to quickly transport troops in the event of a Soviet invasion.
Which is a fucking dumb idea seeing how shitty the US rail system is.
Which was also the real reason Hitler built the Autobahn (or rather, continued and expanded the plans that already existed).
And why Eisenhower built the interstates. They even used dod funding
Sure, but that thing is 4 lanes in either direction. That’s a lot of asphalt for a whole bunch of nothing.
I don’t think it’s illegal. The amount of citizen with access to enough wealth to own a car is just relatively low
Private car ownership is highly restricted. You only have access to a car if you are a party member, are conducting business for the party, or are well connected.
Their society is very localized and travel is restricted(you need a permit to leave your county), trains and bicycles are how you move about if you aren’t walking.
Nice, they’ve solved the climate crisis. It truly is the greatest country.
If every nation could only be a failed state with a 60% poverty level and be propped up by multiple superpowers, we could totally kick the can at least another generation.
They don’t want anyone to go anywhere without being extra nice. It’s not car centered city, it’s a huge prison.
LOL, if one can afford a car in NK, it must be a dream to drive it. Roads as wide as in California with none of the traffic.
No one driving on it and it’s still full of potholes and poorly patched.
An empty road full of potholes and the only other people driving are people I probably know by name?
This is Mario Kart IRL
That banana peel with rot before it gets someone
I don’t think these roads stretch very far.
Why are all the trees dead?
Insane you found 4 of the same looking tree. If you look closely you can see the branch structure is super similar
They even painted the ground to match the tree type smh
I imagine one person deliberately took all 4 pics
i doubt it, that’s too much work for one person
They are still waiting on their permits for water.
The US bombed them so severely that only 20% of their land is arable
Nice try, tankie, but 20% is higher than the US. The world average is 10%.
Correct, sorted by arable land %, NK is actually pretty high on the list. The land is arable, but the dictator is unbearable.
Huh I was surprised by how low the US is given we’ve got a really good growing climate, but I forgot how much of the country isn’t in the Mississippi basin
Checks tld Yup ☑️
Hate hearing about your countries war crimes so much that you have to find a way to dismiss them? There is a reason they hate America.
What is this, America derangement syndrome?
I hate ads lol
Nobody thinks America’s great; your instance is just insufferable.
That’s a city.
