Pre-war history
Unlike World War II, World War II, the Vietnam War, and The War on Terror, the Korean War's intricacy, location, and timing have caused history to gloss over the conflict. For centuries, Japan and China ruled Korea, claiming the disputed territory on Korea. Following World War II, the Allied forces liberated Korea, dividing it into separate occupied zones. In more recent history, Japan annexed Korea, and following World War II, the Allied forces liberated Korea, dividing it into two occupied zones. The 38th parallel was drawn, establishing a Communist North Korea and a South Korean republic. The dividing line was drawn on the 38th parallel, establishing a Communist North Korea and a South Korean republic.
