The United States and the UN sent troops to help Korea, while the Soviet Union and China helped Korea
This led to a bloody and brutal conflict known as the Korean War, which lasted from 1950 to 1953. Millions of soldiers and civilians were killed or injured during the war, and the Korean Peninsula was left devastated.
Ultimately, the Korean War ended in a stalemate, with the two sides signing an armistice agreement in 1953. Although a peace treaty was never signed, the Korean Peninsula remains divided to this day, with North Korea and South Korea existing as separate and distinct countries.
