In this paper, we analyzed five volumes of North Korean "World History" textbooks published from the 1950s to the early 2000s. We examined the structure and composition of the textbooks according to the times. Through this, we have learned what kind of changes in the history of the textbooks related to the modern history of the East Asian countries that are close to North Korea such as China, Mongolia and Japan. The characteristics of the five modern North Korean "History of World History" textbooks published from 1954 to 2002 are as follows. First, all the chapters, starting at the beginning or end of the verse, are from the teachings of Kim Il Sung and Kim Jong Il. Secondly, the North Korean history textbook thoroughly describes the system and contents according to the historical development law based on Marx's dialectical materialism, and explains the development process of world history based on the lawfulness of such historical development. Third, to inspire the class struggle consciousness or the revolutionary consciousness, the contents of the textbooks are described as opposed to the ruling class (feudalism rule, landlords, and capitalists) and the pebble class (people, public, etc.). Fourth, it emphasizes the anti-imperialist struggle of the popular masses.
