North Korea has known only millennia of monarchy and then a century of dictatorship — Japanese from 1910-1945 (in the late stages of colonial rule Koreans had to worship the Japanese emperor), and then for the past 66 years the hegemony of the Kim family.
It's just a little error, but it's the sort of gaffe that occurs frequently, and can be very hard to detect. Check the comments for my explanation of the problem.

The problem, in case you missed it, is this:
"Japanese from 1910-1945"
Notice that "from" is completely written out, whereas "to" is represented only by a hyphen. Properly speaking, the phrase should be:
"Japanese from 1910 to 1945"
So there we are.
