Which east asian country remains poorly developed and isolated under a communist regime?

a. taiwan
b. japan
c. north korea

The answer to your question is C, "North Korea"

Explanation:

Both China and Japan were isolated geographically. Japan is an island, China is surrounded by mountains and a desert, and both nations are halfway around the world from Europe and the Middle East. Neither country was extensively colonized by a European power, and China was so concerned about the influence of trade with Europe that the emperors cut off as much contact as possible. As a result, East Asian culture developed in isolation. There is little influence of Christianity or Islam in the region. China's Confuscianist ethical philosophy dominates in place of religion, although Buddhism is influential. Both languages, Chinese and Japanese, developed a very different writing style than that seen in Europe, and throughout the region, martial arts, theater with elaborate costumes, and traditional dress is quite different from what is seen in Europe.
