This is going to be a relatively quick build, because the town is the worlds biggest hollywood propaganda town. All the buildings are hollow and the flag pole seems a simple enough design. Now this build is gonna be relatively easy because all I gotta do is build the objects for it in a flatland make a schematic of them and import them on a pretty large level on another world. Which is the same way I'm making the Korangal Valley and Baghdad. The DMZ is gonna consist of a lot of explosives and fences.

KijÅ ngdong, KijÅ ng-dong or KijÅ ng tong is a village in P'yÅ nghwa-ri (ChosÅ n'gÅ­l: í í 리; Hancha: å¹³å é ),[1] Kaesong-si,[2] North Korea. It is situated in the North's half of the Korean Demilitarized Zone (DMZ).[3] Also known in North Korea as Peace Village (ChosÅ n'gÅ­l: í í ì´ ; Hancha: å¹³å æ ; MR: p'yÅ nghwach'on; ),[4] it has been widely referred to as Propaganda Village by those outside North Korea, especially in Western and South Korean media (Hangul: ì ì ë§ ì ;Hanja: å®£å ³ë§ ì ; RR: seonjeon maeul).[5][6][7][8][3]

KijÅ ngdong is one of two villages permitted to remain in the 4-kilometer-wide (2.5 mi) DMZ set up under the 1953 armistice suspending the Korean War;[7][9] the other is the South Korean village of Daeseong-dong,[9] 2.22 kilometers (1.38 mi) away.

The coordinates for this village are 37.941761N, 126.653430E.

History

The official position of the North Korean government is that the village contains a 200-family collective farm, serviced by a childcare center, kindergarten, primary and secondary schools, and a hospital.[10] However, observation from the South suggests that the town is actually an uninhabited Potemkin village built at great expense in the 1950s in a propaganda effort to encourage South Korean defection and to house the PRK soldiers manning the extensive network of artillery positions, fortifications and underground marshalling bunkers that abut the border zone.[3][4][11][12] Though no visitors are allowed, it is the only settlement in North Korea within direct eye- and earshot of the Korean DMZ.

The village features a number of brightly painted, poured-concrete multi-story buildings and apartments, many apparently wired for electricity o these amenities represent an unheard-of level of luxury for any rural Korean in the 1950s, north or south. The town was oriented so that the bright blue roofs and white sides of the buildings next to the massive DPRK flag would be the most distinguishing features when viewed from across the border. Scrutiny with modern telescopic lenses, however, reveals that the buildings are mere concrete shells lacking window glass or even interior rooms,[11][13] with building lights turned on and off at set times and empty sidewalks swept by a skeleton crew of caretakers in an effort to preserve the illusion of activity.[14]

[edit]Flagpole

In the 1980s, the South Korean government built a 98.4 m (323 ft) tall flagpole with a 130-kilogram (287 lb) flag of South Korea in Daeseong-dong. The North Korean government responded by building a taller one, the Panmunjeom flagpole, at 160 m (525 ft) with a 270 kg (595 lb) flag of North Korea in KijÅ ng-dong, only 1.2 km (0.7 mi) west of the border with South Korea (37°56'30.24"N, 126°40'48.07"E), in what some have called the "flagpole war". The flagpole was the second tallest in the world at the time, after the flag of Azerbaijan in Baku at 162 m (531 ft).[11][15][16] Both flagpoles have in 2011 been topped by the Dushanbe Flagpole in Tajikistan, at 165 m (541 ft).

[edit]Propaganda broadcasts

Until 2004, massive loudspeakers mounted on several of the buildings continuously delivered DPRK propaganda broadcasts directed towards the south.[11]Originally the content consisted of extolling the North's virtues in great detail and urging disgruntled soldiers and farmers to simply walk across the border to be received as brothers.[17] Eventually, as its value in inducing defections proved minimal,[18] the content was switched to blaring, condemnatory anti-Western propaganda speeches, Communist agitprop operas, and patriotic marching music at high volume for up to 20 hours a day.[17]

Additional Notes

Now I'm gonna build this as somewhat of a battle ground and maybe have some friends of mine build some awesome skins. All people who wanna help will be made use of. No matter what background of building skins,structures or any other designs you might have you will be accepted.
