Comments by "Geoffrey Lyons" (@granatmof) on "Can North Korea ACTUALLY Pull Off an Invasion?" video.
Important to note the UN was only able to intervene because Russia had withdrawn from the security council and couldn't veto the UN support. North Korea holds the mountains, which hold tremendous natural resources, while South Korea holds the plains which have limited natural resources but are fertile farmland. The natural resources is why North Korea was economically better off mid century, but sanctions and isolationism has limited economic development.

The real question is the the humanitarian crisis during and following the war. The North Korean people would die by the millions in prolonged war, even without being casualties of weapon strikes. Nuclear weapons have long be understood to be the easiest way to prevent foreign invasion. Apartheid South Africa developed nuclear weapons in order to prevent America from invading them over human rights issues. The joke was on them, the US has never invaded for humanitarian reasons. They subsequently gave up nuclear weapons at the before ending Apartheid partly to prevent nuclear weapons from being in the hands of people who may not be ready to handle them and because of overt racism.
