Korean War

The Commander in Chief, President Truman refused to use atomic weapons.

The US maintains a large military presence in South Korea as part of its commitment to the defense and security of its ally. The presence serves to deter aggression and provide a swift response to any potential threats to South Korea's security. It also helps maintain stability in the region and supports the US's broader strategic interests in East Asia.

Korea has had a significant influence on the world in various ways. Korean pop culture, known as Hallyu, has gained international popularity through music, films, and television dramas, spreading Korean cultural trends worldwide. Korean technology companies, such as Samsung and LG, have become global leaders in industries like electronics and smartphones. Additionally, Korean cuisine, including dishes like kimchi and bibimbap, has gained worldwide recognition and popularity.

Several reasons.

The spread of communism is one.

Another is that Kim Ill Sung was an ambitious rebel that said they must attack South Korea so it can be unified.

The idea of spreading communism and for this man to rule of all Korea were enough to set off a war.

North Korea invaded South Korea, thus the War began.

The "Martin Letter" is important during the Korean War because it was the reason General MacArthur was fired. While President Truman was trying to find a way to peace, MacArthur, sent a letter to Congressman Joseph Martin, asking that the war be expanded and continue and that the United States should enter into a war with China also.

If North Korea united with South Korea, and expanded there empire, it is a possibility. Once successful, taking seige of surrounding continents and landmasses would be highly plausable, after so, an economical collapse would rebound across the world. That happening, they could easily conquer there financially uncapable neighbors and beat them into submission.

But this would only happen if a set of new brains led North Korea.

Then again, if North America united, along with China and Russia, to destroy there growing empire once they began warfare, we could easily take out there forces.

But who knows, the future is never set in stone.

But through it all, were all dead in the end.

Yes, people in North Korea can watch TV, but the content is heavily controlled by the government. The main source of TV programming is the state-owned Korean Central Television (KCTV), which broadcasts propaganda and government-approved content. Access to foreign TV channels or internet streaming services is restricted, and citizens are only allowed to watch approved programming.

The Korean War officially ended in 1953 with the signing of an armistice agreement. After three years of conflict North and South Korea agreed to a ceasefire and established the Korean Demilitarized Zone (DMZ) a 2.5 mile wide strip of land separating the two countries. Since then there has been no formal end to the war and both countries remain in a state of armistice. Despite the technical state of war diplomatic relations between the two states have improved since the 1990s leading to a series of reconciliatory agreements.

• 1953: Armistice agreement signed establishing the Korean DMZ.
• 1990s: Improved diplomatic relations between North and South Korea.
• 2000-2018: Multiple reconciliatory agreements and summits.

South Korea was caught extremely off-guard when the North Koreans invaded and petitioned the United Nations for assistance. The UN forces finally arrived, but by that point, the South Korean government controlled less than 10% of what is South Korea today (around the city of Busan).

About 6,000 miles. Or 11 hours on a direct flight, or somewhere near 24 if you take a non-direct flight. In short...too far!!

June, July and August

I think you want to know about the standard of Korean money.

Both North and South use Won(원) for standard, but the worth of the money is different.

The US won the Korean War and South Korea is a republic similar to ours. The US did not win the Korean war. See "Who actually won the Korean War?" Better answer. South Korea won the Korean War With the Help of Britain, Autralia and USA Neither side won the Korean War, although at first it seems like North Korea was winning and then the South was. It was a tie because there was a stalemate for two years between the two sides.

South Korea has two holidays that might qualify.

On March 1, South Koreans celebrate what they call "Independence Day" which commemorates the March 1st Movement in 1919. On March 1 of this year, 33 Korean nationalists and students declared their nation's independence in Seoul. It started a nation-wide civil protest and was a catalyst for the establishment of the Provisional Government of the Republic of Korea (April 13, 1919).

On August 15, South Koreans celebrate what they call "Liberation Day" which commemorates the national liberation from Imperial Japan in 1945 as one of the terms of Japanese Surrender to the United States. On the same day in 1948, the government of the Republic of Korea was established.

Although Koreans do use the lunar calender, the Gregorian calender is often used as well. Since this is 2009 in America, it is 2009 in Korea. But when it was December 31, 2008 for America, it was January 1st, 2009 for Korea.
