The Korean Peninsula is divided into two countries at roughly the 38th parallel: North Korea and South Korea. This division occurred following World War II, with the Soviet Union occupying the north and the United States occupying the south. The demilitarized zone (DMZ) separates the two countries.
The 38th Parallel.
South Korea and North Korea are separated by the 38th parallel, not the 48th parallel. The 38th parallel divides the Korean Peninsula roughly in half.
Korea is divided along the 38th parallel into North Korea and South Korea. Cyprus is divided between the Republic of Cyprus and the self-declared Turkish Republic of Northern Cyprus.
The USSR and the US
After the defeat of Japan in 1945, the 38th parallel was chosen to divide the Korean peninsula into two US and Soviet occupied zones. The line dividing North and South Korea is still often referred to as the 38th parallel, but the border is no longer parallel to the equator and rather runs diagonally across the peninsula.
