Korean War 1950-1953
The document provides information about the Korean War from 1950-1953. It discusses the division of Korea along the 38th parallel by the US and USSR following World War 2. This division and tensions between capitalism and communism led to the countries trying to unify Korea under their respective ideologies, resulting in the Korean War. The war involved limited warfare between the US and USSR by proxy through South Korea and North Korea. It also impacted civilians through millions of casualties and economic and political changes in South Korea.
