North and South Korea

 

In 1948, Korea split into 2 and 2 different governments were formed. In 1950, the Korean war started when North Korea invaded South Korea. The U.S. helped South Korea. After the war, Korea was separated by a De-militarized zone. It has been like that since. North and South Korea still don't get along even after more than 50 years. They are still figthing with each other. North Korea has nuclear weapons and they have threatened to use them on South Korea. North Korea has sunk South Korean ships and they have attacked a South Korean island.
