Why the fuck are people caring about the official name of a country for stuff like this, when the Democratic People's Republic of Korea (i.e., North Korea) is a sufficient counterexample?

North Korea is not a Republic no matter what it pretends to be. It is a dictatorship, and if it must be mapped onto this archaic distinction, it maps to a monarchy, not to a republic.
What name the country has and what form of government it has are not the same thing. North Korea isn't democratic either.

Saying that a country has a non-indicative name isn't proof of anything.
Kill 1 man: You are a murderer. Kill 10 men: You are a monster.
Kill 100 men: You are a hero. Kill 10,000 men, you are a conqueror!
