There are a number of states that involve split countries, contested land, or military occupation, where it is useful to be specific. Republic of Ireland and Northern Ireland both exist in the country of Ireland. DPRK and ROK both exist in the country of Korea. Israel and occupied Palestine both exist in the country of Palestine. Republic of Somalia and Republic of Somaliland both exist in the country of Somalia. The PRC and ROC both exist within the country of China. Before reunification, there were the DDR/GDR and BRD/FRG in the country of Germany
That’s a thing normal people call the US, I’ve never heard someone call it the DPRK who wasn’t a weird tankie that circlejerks about how cool north Korea is and how Putin is getting the gang back together and shit
“DPRK” opinion invalidated
using the names of countries I don’t like is bad. i am very smart
I hope you call Russia the Russian Federation, Germany as the Federal Republic of Germany, etc.

Do you get mad when people call “America” USA?
About as mad as I get when I hear people calling the French Republic “France” or the United States of Mexico “Mexico”.
