For instance, the boss is chosen because he knows about financial decisions, and how the value of the company matters

They formed comitees to vote on things and even held a council of elected representatives to make changes for the country.

2018-07-23 05:04:38 UTC  

This country is currently known as the Democratic Peoples Republic of Korea

2018-07-23 05:04:44 UTC
