North Korea has a totalitarian government, which means that the government has complete control over every aspect of citizens' lives, including their rights and freedoms. The Kim dynasty has consistently enforced strict control over North Koreans' daily lives, limiting access to information, freedom of speech and religion, and basic necessities like food and healthcare. This level of control is the hallmark of a totalitarian government, and North Korea is one of the most extreme examples of this political system.
