In this one-hour history book, discover how the Korean war changed the course of history and its impacts on the World.
Out of all the conflicts that the United States has been involved with, the Korean War stands as one of the least discussed. Yet despite the fact that the Korean War is easily overshadowed by both World War II and the Vietnam War, this little-known conflict was actually one of the most pivotal. The war that took place on the Korean Peninsula in the early 1950s was one of the first great tests of the Cold War. The North Korean regime was backed by both the Soviet Union and communist China in its efforts to take over the U.S.-backed budding democracy of South Korea.
Ever since the end of World War II, the Korean Peninsula had been split in half along the 38th parallel, and the U.S. took on the role of making sure that South Korea was able to hold the line in the face of communist aggression. It took much blood and sacrifice to deter the communist North, but in the end, the U.S. and its allies were successful.
It remains debatable just how much the history of the free world has depended upon the successful stabilization of South Korea. Without these efforts, the economic powerhouse of South Korea that the world has come to know today certainly would not have been possible. This book explores the lead-up to the Korean war, the conflict itself, and the continuing aftermath of this ongoing struggle between North and South Korea.
