- Government- East
- Human rights-East
- Cultural- East

- Government- West
- Strict limits on many human and civil rights e.g. limits on free speech, travel, worship etc. Dissidents (people who try to break those limits) risk imprisonment.
- Human rights- West
- The media are owned and run by the government. Newspapers, books, radio, films, TV are strictly censored.
- Cultural-West
- A democratic state. Many parties are allowed to stand in elections. The leader of the party which wins an election becomes the head of the government.

- The media are owned by private companies and individuals. Newspapers, books, radio, TV and films are rarely censored
