The Korean War was a turning point in the Cold War because it was the first time the two superpowers, the US and the Soviet Union, waged a 'proxy war' in a third country. Other Cold War battles, such as the Vietnam War, would employ the proxy war or 'limited war' tactic.

1. August 15, 1948 the Republic of Korea came into being. The Democratic People's Republic of Korea was formed less than a month later.

2. Seoul was recaptured by Chinese and North Korean forces on January 4, 1951.

3. The UN forces liberate Seoul for the fourth time. Fighting has wreaked havoc on the city, reducing the population to a fraction of what it was before the conflict. This is important because Seoul is a big city in Korea and when it was taken lots of people died.

4. MacArthur is relieved of command by US President Harry S. Truman for insubordination and refusing to fight a limited war. Lieut. Gen. Matthew Ridgway succeeded him as UN commander.

5. At Kaesong, peace talks between the UN and the communists begin. The talks do not, however, signal the end of the conflict; fighting will continue for another two years. The peace negotiations will be moved to the village of P'anmunjm in October. This is important because there was a chance of peace.
