Back before World War II, Korea was a Japanese colony. During the war, the United States and the Soviet Union captured Korea from the Japanese, "temporarily" dividing the country in half along the 38th parallel. After the war, the United States and the Soviet Union disagreed over what kind of government Korea should have. The Americans set up a (kind of) democratic government while the Russians set up a communist government. This led to the Korean War, with both governments seeking to take over the whole country. The war ended in a stalemate and Korea has remained divided ever since.
