At Yalta, the US asked the USSR to declare war on Japan. Russia wanted Korea as its reward. Instead Korea was divided in half, the People's Republic of North Korea and the Republic of South Korea. In 1950, Communist North Korea invaded the South.
Yes they do. I don't know if I'm allowed to post links to other websites, so just Google the Northern and Southern Korean flag and you'll see.
The Potsdam Conference in 1945 did not explicitly draw the boundary between North and South Korea; rather, it established a framework for the post-war administration of Korea. The division was later solidified by the Korean War in 1950, with the 38th parallel becoming the de facto boundary separating the Soviet-occupied North and the American-occupied South. This division was intended as a temporary measure but ultimately led to the establishment of two separate states.
Korea in 1927 was occupied by Imperial Japan, it was a colony. N. Korea was not founded until post-WW2
The major factors that led to the Korean War were internal and external in nature. Internally, differences between competing Korean political parties were eventually considered to be beyond peaceful resolution and finally sparked the conflict. Externally, powerful nations (principally China and the United States) sought to influence the outcome, with each backing a different side. This led to an aggravation of the internal conflict and the involvement of foreign troops on Korean soil.

The Korean conflict (1950-53). It has been nicknamed "the war that never ended" because there has yet been no reconcilliation between North Korea and South Korea.
Seoul was significant during the Cold War as it was the capital of South Korea, a key ally of the United States and a frontline state against the spread of communism in East Asia. Its strategic location made it a focal point for military and political tensions between the U.S. and Soviet-backed North Korea. The Korean War (1950-1953) further underscored Seoul's importance, as it became a battleground symbolizing the broader ideological conflict of the Cold War. Additionally, the city’s eventual economic growth and development made it a crucial player in the post-war global order.
During World War II, several countries experienced significant divisions, most notably Germany, which was split into East and West Germany after the war. Additionally, Korea was divided into North and South Korea, while Vietnam was split into North and South Vietnam following the conflict. Austria was also divided into four occupation zones controlled by the Allies, leading to its eventual separation during the Cold War. These divisions were largely influenced by geopolitical tensions that emerged in the post-war era.
