At the end of WW2 Korea was divide in two by the 38th parallel with U.S military forces occupying the southern half and the Soviet military forces occupying the north half.
The failure to hold free elections just made the division between the two deeper. North Korea installed a Communist government and South Korea established a right-wing government.
Since then south and north korea have had a really tense relationship that has come to ra eally probable climax now a days.
- In 2012 a north korean submarine torpedoed and sank a corvette rocks cheonan, resulting in the death of 46 sailors.
- In 2012 North Korea fired artillery shells on Yeonpyeong island killing 2 militaries and 2 civilians.
- 11 March 2013 - North Korea claims that it had invalidated the 1953 armistice.
- 13 March 2013 - North Korea confirms the end of the 1953 armistice and declared that is not restrained by the north-south declaration on non-aggression.
- 30 March 2013 - North Korea enters a state of war with south korea, declaring that the nor peace nor war state of the Korean peninsula is finally over.
- 4 April 2013 - the secretary of defence of the US informs that the pentagon has been ratified by Pyongyang of the potential usage on nuclear weapons against south korea, japan and the united states.
So now this has become a huuuuuuge deal because a lot of innocent people will get affected and if we act a little bit selfish, we are screwed because mexico is right next to US and even thought Mexico has nothing to do with this war, what if a nuclear weapon doesn't get the right coordenates and it hits mexico??! We wont be able to defend ourselves. So i think, we better start making rooms in our basements with enough food , LOL.
this is really cool, and its interesting to see how it all happened, and why. i really hope nothing goes wrong with this and people keep having a good life!
