The Democratic People’s Republic of Korea, commonly known as North Korea, is a country in East Asia. It was founded on September 9, 1948, after the end of World War II. The country is bordered by China and Russia to the north, and by South Korea to the south. Pyongyang is the capital and largest city in North Korea.<\/p>\n

The origins of North Korea can be traced back to the end of World War II, when the peninsula was divided into two zones of occupation by the Allied powers. The Soviet Union occupied the northern half of the peninsula, while the United States occupied the southern half. In August of 1945, the two powers met in Pyongyang to negotiate the future of the Korean peninsula, but they were unable to come to an agreement. As a result, the peninsula was divided along the 38th parallel, with the north becoming the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea (DPRK) and the south becoming the Republic of Korea (ROK).<\/p>\n

When was North Korea formed and why? <\/h2>\n

The Democratic People’s Republic of Korea was established in the North on 9 September 1948. Shtykov served as the first Soviet ambassador, while Kim Il-sung became premier. Soviet forces withdrew from the North in 1948, and most American forces withdrew from the South in 1949.<\/p>\n

Since the US policy toward Korea during World War II was to prevent any single power’s domination of Korea, it can be reasonably concluded that the main reason for the division of the country was to stop the Soviet advance south of the 38th parallel.<\/p>\n
