Best Answer

the war was actually fought between the North and South Korea but about 16~19 countries around the world participated,

US, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, France, Greece, Netherlands, Turkey, Philippines, Thailand, United Kingdom, Belgium, etc...fought for SOUTH Korea,

against..

the China and the Soviet Union (Russia) who fought for NORTH Korea (b/c theyre all communist countries who supported Nort Korea).

The war broke out by the NORTH Koreans' sudden attack on the SOUTH Korea's capital, Seoul, on June 25th, 1950.

Then the South Koreans asked the UN for aid, and those 16 to 19 countries sent their men (troops) to help.

One interesting part of this war is that the UN and those countries that fought for South Korea, ESPECIALLY the United States, helped the South because they didnt like the communists and hated the fact that they the communists made North Korea to be part of them, so they didnt want the South (Korea) to become a communist country either.

hope this helped!

south and north Korea
