History of Korea

North Korea had been urged into invading South Korea by Soviet's (Russia's) Joseph Stalin. Stalin supplied MIG-15 jet fighters, T-34 tanks, and tons of Soviet Artillery and small arms, along with ammunition and fuel for the war machines. Korea has been "NOT BLESSED" by being geographically located between warring nations nearly all of it's existence; China, Russia, and Japan. Again, due to Korea's location, the conflicts involving those countries have led to easy access by outside nations such as Germany, France, or the United States, due to Korea being a peninsula, thus allowing ANY nation to reach Korea by SEA. If Korea had been a "Land Locked Country", any fighting would be RESTRICTED to the surrounding nations. But the peninsula of Korea is open to any nation with a navy. Korea was a colony of Japan prior to WW2. WW2 brought the Soviets into war with Japan which involved Korea. Japan's defeat in WW2 enabled the Soviets (Russians) to occupy NORTH KOREA; while the US/Allies preserved South Korea. When Joseph Stalin died in 1953, the Korean War ended by Armistice (in 1953).

No, they did not. The United States just came into Korea in order to keep Northern part of Korean away from South Korea. Because the Soviet Union(communists) was taking care of northern Korea. Korean War began because of the protection from the United States and the Soveit Union. Colonized over years from Japan, Korea was weak to set their own government, so then United States occupied Korea. no In June 1950, North Korean troops crossed the 38th parallel, the North Koreans had nearly taken the whole of the peninsula when UN troops landed in the unconquered land in the south-east and at Inchon near Seoul.
