The formation of two Koreas was primarily led by the geopolitical tensions following World War II. After Japan's defeat in 1945, Korea was divided along the 38th parallel into two occupation zones: the Soviet Union took control of the north, while the United States controlled the south. This division solidified into two separate governments in 1948, with the establishment of the Democratic People's Republic of Korea in the north and the Republic of Korea in the south, ultimately leading to the Korean War in 1950.
