North VS South Korea Not just a current event.

Tuesday November 22 At approximately 8:50 am (Montreal time) South Korea reported North Korean shells falling off the shores of Yeonpyeong Island.

What possibly led to this… "The South Korean enemy, despite our repeated warnings, committed reckless military provocations of firing artillery shells into our maritime territory near Yeonpyeong island beginning 1300 (0400 GMT)," the state-run KCNA news agency quoted it as saying.

North Korea sent out a clear warning: The North will strike back if South Korea "dares to invade our sea territory by 0.001mm"

This is being considered: “One of the most serious incidents between the two nations since the Korean War ended…”

This is by no means, a “recent issue” From end of WWII, the Korean Peninsula was controlled by Japan. After WWII, Korea was divided by the Allied forces along the 38th parallel.

On the path to war: South Korea was occupied by US troops. North Korea was occupied by Soviet troops. “Skirmishes” and raids across the border were very common.

The Korean War Begins Tensions increased until June 25th 1950, North Korea invaded South Korea.

Beginning of the War The United Nations (mainly the United States) helped the South. They managed to advance in proximity to the Yalu River. It seemed like the South was going to win.

The War Changes Course: The People’s Republic of China felt threatened, and began helping the North. They moved the United Nations past the 38th parallel.

The End of the War: An ARMISTICE was signed, July 27, The border was back where it was when the war had started.

Korean Demilitarized Zone It was created at the end of the war. It is a 4km wide, 250km long “buffer zone” between North and South Korea. It is heavily protected by the military.

The war changed in many ways: The conflict went from a civil war to a proxy war between powers involved in a larger Cold War. The military tactics started out as swift infantry attacks and air bombings but ended in trench warfare.

Opinions of the War are apparent in the names that the war is given in different areas. United States: “The Forgotten War” or “The Unknown War” South Korea: “6-2-5 War” (The date it started) North Korea: “Fatherland Liberation War” China: “War to Resist US Aggression and Aid in Korea”

Reflection Question: Look at the different names given to the Korean War. How do they reflect the opinions of those countries concerning the war.

North Korean Life h/?id= nhttp:// h/?id= n

actually born in Siberia, Russia during his father's period of exile from Korea in further developed and refined elements of his father's Juche doctrine of self- sufficiency. Details of the exact power structure within North Korea are obscure. Western political observers consider it to be an archetypal totalitarian state reminiscent of Stalin's Russia combines Juche with more conventional strands of marxist-communism.

Kim Jong-Un Declared the next leader after his father’s death Dec 17, 2011 The media began calling him “ another leader sent from the heaven, ” a description until now reserved for his father.
