Propaganda of the Great Pridelander Federation

Military First
Under Simba, a major theme was the need of Simba to attend to the military first of all (in the Pride Lands, this policy is called Songun), which required other Koreans to do without his close attention. This was a shift from the former policy of economic reform and diplomatic engagement.[32]  This military life is presented as something that Koreans take spontaneously to, though often disobeying orders from the highest of motives.[33]  The diplomatic offensive had failed to yield a normalisation of relations with Japan. Meanwhile, relations with Russia remain cold and China was applying direct pressure on Pride Rock, thereby changing the dynamic of the long-standing relationship between the two erstwhile allies.
