Iran would probably side with everyone else, just because it would mean going against all the world superpowers and then some. And if they were to lose, which they most likely would, it would mean a drastic change to their government as well.

Yes, it would be devastating. It's very unfortunate. Even now, so many people there are living under cruel, unfair conditions. They can't even attempt to change their life. They're fed propaganda. No one in the world even knows what goes on there. I'm sure we've all seen the world a night photo from space, where it shows NK being completely dark. Does anyone remember the incident where some sort of explosion occurred in NK? I remember hearing that people hypothesized that it was a train crash, but even now we don't know for sure. Oh, found a Wikipedia page on it! http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ryanggang_explosion

Have you seen the comments for NK's FIFA page? http://www.fifa.com/worldcup/teams/team=43821/index.html (Scroll down a bit.) Unlike all the other country profiles, there are almost no NK users commenting on their team. It's all foreigners, telling them how great their team played and giving encouragement. It's a bit depressing, especially when you see the other profiles and have everyone commending teams for their work.
