The correct answer is D. They have very different political systems and systems of government.

North Korea is considered to be a dictatorship because it has a ruler for life who has absolute authority. On the other hand, South Korea is a democratic republic, with a president who rules along with his government.

A is incorrect because they do share a common border, their language is quite similar, which is why B is incorrect, and they were once a single state, which is why C is not correct.
