Kim Il-Sung's Tomb

Kim Il-Sung, the first dictator of North Korea, was embalmed. His perfectly mummified body lies in a glass sarcophagus inside a $100 million mausoleum. Even though he died in 1994, Kim Il-sung remains president of North Korea. The constitution was revised in 1998, declaring him "Eternal President of the Republic," making North Korea the only necrocracy in the world—a government that still operates under the rules of a dead former leader.
