Naenara (Korean내나라; lit. my country)[1] is the official web portal of the North Korean government.[3] It was the first website in North Korea, and was created in 1996.[4] The portal's categories include politics, tourism, music, foreign trade, arts, press, information technology, history, and "Korea is One".[5]

The website carries publications such as The Pyongyang Times, The Democratic People's Republic of Korea [ko; de; zh] magazine, Korea Today magazine and Foreign Trade magazine along with Korean Central News Agency news.[1]

South Korean users' access to the site has been blocked by South Korean authorities since 2011.[6] As of July 2014, the website remains blocked.[7]
