DPRK
An acronym for the Democratic People's Republic of Korea, a.k.a north Korea. The term is often used by Western supporters/advocates of north Korea instead of the term "North Korea", because "North Korea" implies that Korea is two separate and distinct entities, and not one nation controlled by two different governments.
Example:
Charles: Did you about the new construction projects going on in North Korea?
Worth: You mean the DPRK? Don't say "North Korea" like an imperialist.
