Where is Mason-Dixon line in NJ?

North American continent, United States of America.There's always been some disagreement as to the exact location of the dividing lines.

What was the 17th paralle?

The 17th parallel is the line of latitude 17 degrees North of the Equator. I'm not sure of any particular significance to WWII directly; it was where Vietnam was divided into North and South (in the mid-1950s) though, which might be what you're thinking of.


Why wasn't the north and the south able to compromise over their differences in 1861?

They did - the Missouri Compromise. This lasted thirty years, and was only rendered impractical by the admission of California, a state that extended so far on either side of the Missouri line that both sides claimed it. If only California could have been admitted as two separate states - North and South - there needn't have been a Civil War. The Missouri Compromise was very sensible, and deserved to last.


What name was given to the dividing line between North and South Vietnam?

The border is the Sino-Vietnamese border, where fighting broke out in March, 1979 between China and Vietnam, 4 years after the victory over South Vietnam and 4 months after the Vietnamese invasion of Cambodia. The Chinese were victorious but withdrew, and failed to stop the Cambodian incursion.* The better known border is the Demilitarized Zone (DMZ) along the 38th Parallel separating North Korea from South Korea.
