Answer: D) North Korea

Explanation:
The United States, the United Kingdom, and France are all countries that have capitalistic economies. This means that (for the most part) private industry and the market determines what products are produced and who gets those products. I said "for the most part" because these countries don't follow a purely capitalistic structure. There are some elements of government regulation to ensure that no breakdowns occur. The regulations are also to ensure some level of fairness as well, in addition to preventing things like fraud.
On the other hand, countries like North Korea are known as command economies because the government determines what products are to be made and they determine who gets the products. This means that they set the prices as well to whatever they feel is correct (even if the market may disagree otherwise). The term "communism" is often strongly connected to the term "command economy".

In the Northern Hemisphere, winter generally begins on December 21 or 22. This is the winter solstice, the day of the year with the shortest period of daylight. Summer begins on June 20 or 21, the summer solstice, which has the most daylight of any day in the year. Spring and fall, or autumn, begin on equinoxes, days that have equal amounts of daylight and darkness. The vernal, or spring, equinox falls on March 20 or 21, and the autumnal equinox is on September 22 or 23.
