Before the Vietnam and Korean Wars, both Vietnam and Korea experienced significant political and social divisions, largely influenced by colonial rule and the Cold War context. In Korea, the division into North and South followed the end of Japanese occupation, while Vietnam split into North and South after French colonial rule. Both regions were also caught in the struggle between communism and capitalism, with the North receiving support from communist powers (the Soviet Union and China for Vietnam, and the Soviet Union for North Korea) and the South backed by the United States and its allies. This geopolitical tension set the stage for the subsequent wars in both countries.
