During the Second World War, the Japanese invaded China and southeast Asia.

After the Treaty of Malta was signed, the Russians oversaw the withdrawal of the Japanese from Korea, but stopped their retreat just north of the 38th parallel. This parallel was agreed on in the negotiations between the US, Britain and the Soviet Union.
