Jong-un trade barbs, the world holds its breath and hope no one hits the big red button.

But maybe those from the hermit kingdom are more like us than we ever knew?

Turns out, they are a nation who adored Princess Diana — so much so that they loved putting her on stamps.

When she and Prince Charles said “I do” in 1981, the nation reportedly celebrated.

They then promptly put out a series of commemorative stamps.

Then, the following year, they released a set to mark the birth of Prince William.

When the Princess of Wales turned 21 (god, she was young,) the regime unveiled an illustrated homage to her.

However, academic Ross King has told CNN North Korea’s steady production of Diana merch was more about making money than simply venerating the People’s Princess. He has said that the regime created stamps they thought Western philatelists would snap up. (They now retail for around $30 or $40 per stamp.)
