The Democratic People's Republic of Korea is known to be the world's most isolated country as its citizens are prohibited from traveling either internally or internationally without express permission. Communications with the outside world are also tightly regulated in attempts by the dictatorship to filter all information accessible by the North Korean people. North Korea is listed by the State Department as a Tier III country with respect to human trafficking. In other words, they are egregious violators of modern-day slavery, buying and selling women and others as a commodity. North Korea was also just designated as one of eight Countries of Particular Concern for its violations of religious freedom. There are also an estimated 150,000 to 200,000 prisoners currently held in North Korean labor camps.
