The founding of the DPRK on September 9, Juche 37(1948) was a great event of special significance that gave origin to the construction of the genuine independent and sovereign state and the construction of the people’s country for the first time in the nation's history spanning 5 000 years, and a solemn declaration of the start of the construction of a great powerful country.

For the past more than 70 years since the historical day, the DPRK created the myth of war victory startling the world people and has achieved leaping progress and innovation racing against the time to tower as a powerful country of Juche, a socialist country centered on the popular masses and to demonstrate its might all over the world.

The DPRK, the precious heritage bequeathed down by the great leaders out of patriotism, is displaying its dignity and might all over the world as it is led by Supreme Leader Kim Jong Un.

The DPRK, a country not big in territory and in the number of population, is shedding its rays as a powerful country of independence, while taking the lead in steering the world political trend. This is a great victory to be specially recorded in the nation's history spanning 5 000 years.

The leader trusts in the people and unfolds the grandiose plan to bring the people's dream and ideal into a reality while the people cherish the trust put in them by the leader as the greatest treasure in their life and carry out the leader's intention at the greatest attack speed. Therefore, the victory of our revolution is certain.
