    The DPRK is socialist and not a hereditary autocracy. It has been the consistent direction of the head of the executive branch to diffuse authority to other offices, but nearly everything you have ever heard about this country was a lie.

        It literally has handed power down from father to son twice.

        It has had sons win elections and then hold the office twice. We can call it dynastic in a sense similar to US political dynasties, but that’s different from being literally hereditary.

        As the citizens cannot advocate for a change in leaders, a change in direction of the party or an entirely new political system
