Similar to North Korean, the Soviet Union was a communist nation that wanted to help raise communism to ultimate power.

This was done in protest of US policies. ]]> 2022-04-21 13:33:04 UTC https://padlet.com/25engemanm/5om7rfqvmu70vx8u/wish/2152049637 25engemanm https://padlet.com/25engemanm/5om7rfqvmu70vx8u/wish/2152064466 Aug 14, 1945 - WWII ended with Japanese surrender, and Korea was subsequently divided. A dividing line was put between the US and Soviet zones of Korea, called the 38th parallel.]]> 2022-04-21 13:42:32 UTC https://padlet.com/25engemanm/5om7rfqvmu70vx8u/wish/2152064466 25engemanm https://padlet.com/25engemanm/5om7rfqvmu70vx8u/wish/2152067786 Aug 15, 1948 - South Korea is established and, less than a month later, North Korea is established.]]> 2022-04-21 13:44:36 UTC https://padlet.com/25engemanm/5om7rfqvmu70vx8u/wish/2152067786 25engemanm https://padlet.com/25engemanm/5om7rfqvmu70vx8u/wish/2152072992 Jun 25, 1950 - North Korean troops and massive artillery flood the 38th parallel and drive South Korea back.]]> 2022-04-21 13:47:38 UTC https://padlet.com/25engemanm/5om7rfqvmu70vx8u/wish/2152072992 25engemanm https://padlet.com/25engemanm/5om7rfqvmu70vx8u/wish/2152074838 Jan 4, 1951 - North Korean forces recapture Seoul.]]> 2022-04-21 13:48:50 UTC https://padlet.com/25engemanm/5om7rfqvmu70vx8u/wish/2152074838 25engemanm https://padlet.com/25engemanm/5om7rfqvmu70vx8u/wish/2152079226 Jul 27, 1953 - North Korea creates an armistice ending the war.  Thereafter, a demilitarized zone is set roughly along the 38th parallel.]]> 2022-04-21 13:51:44 UTC https://padlet.com/25engemanm/5om7rfqvmu70vx8u/wish/2152079226 25engemanm https://padlet.com/25engemanm/5om7rfqvmu70vx8u/wish/2152089603 After three years of bloody war, an armistice is agreed on, bringing the Korean War to an end.

This is because of Korea's involvement with the US and the Soviet Union, who were the main parties of the Cold War.
