Korean War
Shelf by nono umasy
The Korean War (1950-1953), a significant conflict in Cold War history, occurred when North Korea, supported by China and the Soviet Union, invaded South Korea, backed by United Nations forces led primarily by the United States. This war stemmed from the division of Korea at the 38th parallel after World War II, escalating into a global confrontation between communist and anti-communist forces. Major events include the Inchon Landing, led by General Douglas MacArthur, which turned the tide for the UN forces, and the brutal Battle of Chosin Reservoir. The war saw extensive use of jet aircraft in combat and marked a significant escalation in the Cold War. It concluded with an armistice in 1953, establishing the Korean Demilitarized Zone (DMZ), but no formal peace treaty was signed. The Korean War significantly impacted the Korean peninsula, solidifying the division between North and South Korea, and its legacy continues to influence global politics and regional stability.
