The Korean War, which lasted from 1950 to 1953, ended in an armistice rather than a formal peace treaty, effectively maintaining the division of Korea along the 38th parallel. This resulted in the establishment of two separate nations: North Korea, backed by the Soviet Union and China, and South Korea, supported by the United States and other Western allies. The armistice agreement created the Korean Demilitarized Zone (DMZ), which remains one of the most heavily fortified borders in the world. Although fighting ceased, tensions between the two Koreas continue to this day.
