 Under the terms of the agreements with Russia and the United
States, Korea was divided into two nations, a Communist nation in
the north and a Democratic nation in the south. Tensions continued
for years and eventually North Korea invaded. The United Nations
reacted and sent troupes to support the south. China and Russia
supported North Korea (China actually committed troupes). An
armistice was agreed to in 1953 but no treaty has ever been
signed. |
