North Korea is too poor and underdeveloped to cause as much damage as the Nazis but I doubt that they would hesitate only a nanosecond to start some serious war if saw any chance of winning. Look at what the "Worker's" Party does to their workers. They are forced to watch public executions for example.

Modern folk music from an uncommon place:

Nukes are pretty effective at killing people though. I don't think the Nazis had those.

Awesome tapes from Africa is pretty great

Novos Baianos, Brazil, 1972

As opposed to Japanese pop music that fetishizes western cultural colonialism, here's some music from Japan that incorporates traditional Ainu instruments and music with a revolutionary spirit (dub reggae). Oki  Dub Ainu Band is awesome sauce.

peruvian cumbia/chicha from mexico:
