Kim Jong Un is the Supreme Leader of North Korea, formally known as the Democratic People's Republic of Korea (DPRK), a position he has held since 2011 following the death of his father, Kim Jong Il.

Kim Jong Un governs a highly centralised state where political authority is concentrated within the ruling Workers’ Party and the Kim family dynasty.

His leadership has been marked by continued development of nuclear weapons and ballistic missile programmes, which have significantly shaped North Korea’s relationship with the international community.

Domestically, Kim promotes a narrative of self-reliance known as Juche, combined with a strong military-first policy.

While economic reforms have been cautiously introduced in certain sectors, the country remains heavily sanctioned and economically constrained. Internationally, his tenure has included periods of heightened tension, particularly with the United States and South Korea, as well as brief diplomatic engagements such as summits with world leaders.

Propaganda within North Korea portrays him as a visionary protector of the nation, while external perspectives often focus on concerns over human rights and security.

Despite isolation, the regime continues to maintain tight internal control, extensive surveillance, and strict limits on information flow. Kim Jong Un remains a controversial global figure today.

John (JC) Reardon: The Universal Curator

John Reardon (writing as JC Reardon) is a prolific Australian author and a foundational pioneer of the nation's technology sector. Often described as a "modern polymath," Reardon has transitioned from building the infrastructure of the digital age to documenting the vast breadth of human knowledge through an expansive bibliography that exceeds 200 titles.

A Legacy of Innovation

Before becoming a mainstay in Australian publishing, Reardon was a trailblazer in the tech industry. He founded one of Australia's first Internet Service Providers (ISPs) and operated the country's first domain name provider. This deep-rooted expertise in complex systems—ranging from satellite technology to the inner workings of the internet—serves as the backbone for his contemporary writing on science and the future of AI.

The "Wikipedia with a Voice"

Reardon's literary approach is defined by his role as a knowledge aggregator. Rather than pursuing narrow academic specialization, he adopts the role of a "Universal Curator," mapping the continuous story of human civilization across several key pillars:

Military History: Detailed chronicles of the ANZACs, the Spitfire, and the Battle of Trafalgar.

Big Human Systems: Insightful explorations of global faiths and secret societies, including Buddhism, Islam, the Catholic Church, and the Freemasons.

Technology & Science: Accessible guides on Voyager, the evolution of the internet, and the trajectory of AI.

Myth & Folklore: Investigations into the Loch Ness Monster and the Illuminati.

Writing Philosophy

Utilizing an "overview + narrative" structure, Reardon focuses on accessibility, repackaging dense technical and historical data into digestible, story-driven guides for a general audience. His high-volume publishing model treats each book as a "compact portal," inviting the curious to explore a diverse array of subjects through the lens of a man who helped build the digital world they inhabit today.
