The Korean War

– At the conclusion of World War II in 1945 the Allies agreed to divide Korea temporarily into a Soviet-occupied northern zone and an American-occupied southern zone. – Soon after 1945 a pro-American government was formed in S. Korea and a Communist regime was formed in N. Korea. – Occupying forces withdrew from both zones in 1948 and – In June 1950, the Korean War broke out when North Korean troops streamed across the 38th parallel which divided North and South Korea. – The United Nations would act by creating a force that would help protect S. Korea.

Divided Korea

– General Douglas MacArthur would be chosen to lead the United Nations force in Korea. – A stalemate would eventually develop in Korea with the Chinese becoming involved in the conflict. – General MacArthur would eventually be fired for insubordination because of criticism toward Truman’s Korean policies. – A truce would be signed in 1953 leaving Korea divided at the 38th parallel. – The end result of the war confused many Americans since Communism still existed on the Korean peninsula.
