The Kingdom of Goryeo (고려
) was the first fully unified kingdom in Korean history. This kingdom was ruled by the Korean Wang Dynasty (918-1392) until it was forced into becoming a compulsory ally of the Mongolian Yuan Dynasty, under which the power of Goryeo kings waned. The Kingdom of Goryeo finally collapsed when Yi Seong-gye, a general of Goryeo, overthrew the ruling family and established the Kingdom of Joseon.

Korea is not one unified country at present. North Korea is ruled from Pyongyang and South Korea is ruled from Seoul.
Historically, Korea was known as "Joseon" during the Joseon Dynasty, which lasted from 1392 to 1910. Before that, it was referred to as "Goryeo" during the Goryeo Dynasty (918-1392), which is the origin of the modern name "Korea." In ancient times, it was also known by various names, such as "Silla," "Baekje," and "Goguryeo," representing the three kingdoms that existed before the unification under the Silla Dynasty. Today, Korea is divided into two countries: South Korea (Republic of Korea) and North Korea (Democratic People's Republic of Korea).
