Why did North Korea unjustifiably invade South Korea?

After WWII, Korea was divided at the 38th parallel into two hostile parts. The North part was backed by the Solviet Union and the South was backed by the United States. Shortly after this division, the North attacked the South with the goal of unifying all of Korea under communist rule. President Truman was convinced that Stalin had initiated this attack. Later, history showed that Stalin had supported the attack with advisors, but it was at the insistence of the North Koreans. In fact, a civil war had been brewing for several years in Korea. Some historians estimate that as many as 100,000 Koreans were killed in this civil war before the North invaded the South.

Why does the North Korea battle with South Korea?

Before WWII, North and South Korea were united as one country; they were just Korea. Part of Korea, the south, wanted to break apart and be independent because they wanted to become democratic, while the rest wanted one communist country. They broke into civil war, and the US and UN jumped on the south's side and the USSR helped the north. It's still basically a stalemate between North and South Korea; which is why we still have troops there on the 36 Parallel.
