After World War II, the United States fought in the Korean War (1950-1953) to prevent the spread of communism in Asia. The war began when North Korea, backed by the Soviet Union and China, invaded South Korea. The U.S. intervened as part of a United Nations coalition to support South Korea and maintain its sovereignty against communist expansion. This conflict was part of the broader Cold War strategy to contain communism.
