West Korea Best Korea
Honestly ? Not the stupidest thing I've read today...
It works for Vietnam and Laos, and. Burma and Thailand.
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.
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.
Where in England are you from?
Let's split the difference and have some Brits redraw the lines at random, they're great at it!
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
China has as great a chance (and as little chance) as anyone else. Kingmakers and would be emperors have to make some serious decisions as their nation grows and develops: Do they go the autocratic dictator route and withhold civil liberties, or do they extend civil liberties outward, so that satellite colonies and conquered territories are more tolerant of imperial rule? History teems with examples of both, often from the same empire in different eras.
It's not new, from the tolerance of other religions and customs by Xerxes I to the republic of SPQR. Heck, even France tried constitutional monarchy with the Bourbon restoration, so long as the Napoleonic code (defining civil rights and the rule of law) was preserved. Charlie X decided to stop that civil liberties nonsense and the people of France rolled out the guillotines once again.
This is something I bring up as a difference between the Islamic State as a hypothetical to which Islamists aspire to, and the Islamic State as it is practiced in the Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant; the latter clings harshly to Shariah law. Contrast the Iran during the Pahlavi era (the result of famine and revolution forming a new imperial republic) which established a code of civil rights (only US oil interests had to meddle)
China is about to have an opportunity to become the world superpower, or an eastern adversary to Post-NATO Europe, and right now, democracy in the EU and UK are weakened by the same long-term reign of corporatist neoliberal parties (King Log) that are opposed by far-right nationalist movements which are gaining traction... or were until Trump reminded everyone of what fascist autocracy looks like.
If China decides not to develop its humanity and civil liberties game, then those neoliberal parties will last a while longer while drifting to the right, until the nationalist take hold and they have a Big Fat War (not to be confused with WWIII or Nuclear War). But by then, the climate crisis will be extreme enough to make the future too chaotic to predict. This is why China is leading the sustainable energy race (and because Trump kisses the feet of Koch and big oil, the US is reversing course).
This is all backed by the ethics theory of the social contract: So long as the public is comfortable they'll adhere to the laws of the land and play by the king's rules. Suffering breeds discontent and organized resistance.
It didn't work in Germany
obviously because Germany should have done North Germany and South Germany
Again, you mean?
Wtf is that second map?! Krefeld?! Mühlacker?! Eilenburg?! Bad Düben?!
Oh, so germany is korea now?
West Korea, best Korea
English chap here: this looks like a fine idea. Nothing could go wrong.
Give this champ a Nobel Prize
Looks similar to Norway and Sweden 😄
Border needs to be a straight line, as a joke
How about a striped Korea instead?
lol ... Polka Dot Korea
Then again ... isn't that known as electoral districts in the United States
No we do fractal districts. They get ever more detailed as you zoom in to them. Their border length is theoretically infinite.
The gerrymandered border slicing through an American's house to isolate its occupants into different districts
Suddenly Korea looks like Vietnam.
Urge to bomb Cambodia increasing...
What if it's upper and lower Korea? Everything above the average elevation of Korea is upper, the rest is lower
You guys can be Korea 1, we will be Korea A.
I'd say we turn it into Korea and Aerok instead
korussy
Was that on purpose?
it's over, kim! we have the high ground!
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.
We should simply send Japan in to take over the island
That's not a problematic thing to say, right? No historical reason why it would make Koreans incredibly angry?
Political compass Korea
Divide it into 9 bits and get alignment Korea.
Babe wake up anew west coast vs east coast beef just dropped.
It would surely be much more peaceful. Let's just re-draw the borders and leave everything else. Just look at them spooning lovingly.
How about stripes?
