It's a silly way to secular-wash a Christian system. If you want a secular calendar, you should have it not oriented around the birth of Christ. Very underrated decision by the dprk to have their calendar based on the founding of the country.

Interestingly, on Taiwan they have the Republic of China calendar (in addition to the Western calendar) which begins from the establishment of the RoC (1912 on the Western calendar).
