West Korea Best Korea

[–] axEl7fB5@lemmy.cafe 4 points 3 hours ago

What about all? South-east Korea, South-west Korea, North-east Korea, North-west Korea.

[–] ksigley@lemmy.world 7 points 5 hours ago

Honestly ? Not the stupidest thing I've read today...

[–] Agent641@lemmy.world 3 points 4 hours ago (1 children)

It works for Vietnam and Laos, and. Burma and Thailand.

[–] RickyRigatoni@retrolemmy.com 3 points 2 hours ago

And germany

No joke, I think hypothetically this would disturbance of, and conflict with, wildlife that have come to occupy the DMZ, most troublingly, tigers.

A united Korea may be one of the positive side effects of America pooping its pants and deteriorating into a has-been world power. China will have to become World Police, unless it autocrats its way into wasteland as well, but if China can set an example and take a few steps elevating liberty, it could then unseat the Kim family, and allow Korea to just be a nice high-tech industrialized nation littered with chibi animal avatars.

Because DPRK is just a mess. There's also the possibility that China facilitates an invasion of South Korea by North Korea, but Kim Il Sung's grandchildren are unlikely to be as pro-Chinese culture as he was, and zombie rulers can only have so much influence.

Or China can just annex the whole thing, which would be a dick move and expensive and result IRA like troubles (e.g. a decades long sabotage and terror campaign from an internal pro-Korea resistance.) The Daughters of Queen Min, if I were writing the story.

if China can set an example and take a few steps elevating liberty,

Lol

These lines are not straight enough, they appear to follow already established administrative borders. I propose a straight line that completely ignores all this. I think that is the only sensible solution.

[–] Agent641@lemmy.world 5 points 4 hours ago

Where in England are you from?

[–] kieron115@startrek.website 8 points 10 hours ago

Let's split the difference and have some Brits redraw the lines at random, they're great at it!

obviously because Germany should have done North Germany and South Germany

[–] Walk_blesseD@piefed.blahaj.zone 1 points 2 hours ago

Again, you mean?

[–] zaphod@sopuli.xyz 5 points 11 hours ago

Wtf is that second map?! Krefeld?! Mühlacker?! Eilenburg?! Bad Düben?!

Give this champ a Nobel Prize

[–] MattTheProgrammer@lemmy.world 8 points 12 hours ago

West Korea, best Korea

[–] DJDarren@sopuli.xyz 9 points 13 hours ago

English chap here: this looks like a fine idea. Nothing could go wrong.

[–] 1yjgjmmt5988@sh.itjust.works 5 points 13 hours ago

Looks similar to Norway and Sweden 😄

[–] WanderWisley@lemmy.world 2 points 11 hours ago

Babe wake up anew west coast vs east coast beef just dropped.

[–] ShinkanTrain@lemmy.ml 10 points 17 hours ago

Border needs to be a straight line, as a joke

[–] MonkderVierte@lemmy.zip 10 points 17 hours ago (1 children)

How about a striped Korea instead?

[–] ininewcrow@lemmy.ca 8 points 12 hours ago (1 children)

lol ... Polka Dot Korea

Then again ... isn't that known as electoral districts in the United States

[–] infinitesunrise@slrpnk.net 7 points 11 hours ago* (last edited 11 hours ago) (1 children)

No we do fractal districts. They get ever more detailed as you zoom in to them. Their border length is theoretically infinite.

[–] Ashelyn@lemmy.blahaj.zone 4 points 7 hours ago

The gerrymandered border slicing through an American's house to isolate its occupants into different districts

[–] Mr_Fish@lemmy.world 43 points 1 day ago (2 children)

What if it's upper and lower Korea? Everything above the average elevation of Korea is upper, the rest is lower

[–] Agent641@lemmy.world 4 points 4 hours ago

You guys can be Korea 1, we will be Korea A.

[–] wieson@feddit.org 31 points 23 hours ago (2 children)
[–] UnknownSoul@programming.dev 11 points 14 hours ago (2 children)

I'd say we turn it into Korea and Aerok instead

[–] axEl7fB5@lemmy.cafe 1 points 3 hours ago

Was that on purpose?

[–] atlas@sh.itjust.works 21 points 22 hours ago

it's over, kim! we have the high ground!

[–] atticus88th@lemmy.world 64 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Suddenly Korea looks like Vietnam.

[–] RaivoKulli@sopuli.xyz 6 points 12 hours ago

Urge to bomb Cambodia increasing...

[–] Rivalarrival@lemmy.today 59 points 1 day ago (4 children)

How about a North/South Korea, and an East/West Korea? All four quadrants meet at Panmunjom. You can cross on the diagonal, but never a row or column.

[–] idunnololz@lemmy.world 7 points 20 hours ago (1 children)
[–] Agent641@lemmy.world 5 points 4 hours ago

Divide it into 9 bits and get alignment Korea.

It would surely be much more peaceful. Let's just re-draw the borders and leave everything else. Just look at them spooning lovingly.
