Korean war 1129: 1950.6.25 - 1953.7.27
In human history, the Korean War stands out as a most unique civil war. Nearly two million soldiers representing countries from all over the world fought for the freedom of South Korea. At the time of the war, 63 of the 93 independent countries in the world provided South Korea with troops and war supplies. On the other hand, only the Soviet Union and Communist China provided North Korea with air force and ground troops support while Bulgaria, Czechoslovakia, Hungary, Poland, and Romania provided medical assistance. Mongolia and East Germany provided additional aid.
The Korean War was a turning point in the process of achieving the current economic success of South Korea. All of these unique factors make it necessary to look at the Korean War from a broad objective perspective. This is my duty, to hand down the facts about the Korean War 'as it happened," while avoiding the prejudices that might warp narration of the events that unfolded.
This publication collected and recorded what happened on the Korean Peninsula relative to the international community starting with the North Korea Forces' launch of a full-scale invasion of a defenseless South Korea, with about 242 tanks and 170 combat planes at 4 a.m. on June 25, 1950, and going all the way through to the Armistice agreement between the UN and North Korea at 10 a.m. on July 27, 1953, South Korea today is a shining example of a great historical triumph, recovering from the devastation of war and a hopeless situation to become a modern, advanced society.
