Containment? When communism attempts to spread throughout Korea, the United States decides to “contain” it.

US v. Soviet Union After WWII, both sides had troops in Korea, and neither side wanted to leave. Divided nation along 38 th Parallel. Soviets leave in 1949 with strong army in place. US leaves months later, with a relatively weak army.

North Korea N. Korea Communists invade S. Korea in Americans win UN agreement to invade after the Soviets boycott the meeting. After MacAuthur decides to move troops into N. Korea, it goes from “containment” to a fight against communism.

Stalemate American and UN forces take the northern half of Korea easily. China gets scared. They send armies in and push back forces to the 38 th. MacAuthur said, “we are really fighting the Chinese, lets bomb them.” Controversy ensues when Truman and MacAuthur come into conflict.

Stalemate, again. Fighting stays within the 38 th parallel as a truce is reached between the two sides. It takes two years, but the conflict generally ends in We still have bases along the 38 th, and now North Korea is experimenting with nuclear weapons.
