Peacemaking negotiations began in January 1905, but were not finalized until April 24th 1905 when Japan agreed to Roosevelt’s terms, which included continued support of the Open Door in Manchuria, as well as for the restoration of the province to China. However, it was not until September 5th 1905 when the treaty was signed, as Russia was reluctant to sign the treaty. The treaty gave Japan control of Korea and a substantial amount of

South Korea didn’t want to be a contribution to communism, where North Korea believed that communism was the solution to all problems. This invasion caused and all out war the involved many other countries like Russia and the US. As stated in “Document C”, Russia’s job was to help North Korea and promote their communists government, where the US was there to help South Korea promote their capitalism. Several years after continuously fighting on whether Korea should have a communist or capitalists government, the war finally ended. The country is still divided today and North Korea still remains communists leaving the US failing to stop communism.
The Korean War was a proxy war fought between the United States and the USSR, for the purpose of gaining power and political influence in other parts of the world. Since the end of WWII, the USSR and the United States became very hostile against one another, creating what came to be called “The Cold War“ coined by Bernard Baruch in 1947 from the lack of there ever being direct battles against one another. From the result of the bitter and cold rivalry between the United States and the Soviet Union came a large chain of indirect battling over political influence in developing or war-torn countries. As this feud occurred the people of the United States mainly wanted there to be a change in Korea out of this war [Doc E], but what was occurring
If people from China didn’t want to have warfare with Xiongnu and wanted to keep a peaceful relationship between each
Japan had been humiliated by its allies at the Treaty of Versailles as The United States had vetoed any discussion about racial equality. The United States had also forced Japan to sign an unfair treaty in 1853, controlling their trade and resources. When Japan suffered economic depression in the 1930’s, Japan attacked China for resources. The United States and Britain were against the expansion of Japan, angering the once-reclusive country (Sczcepanski, 2017, online). Japan turned to new countries for resources including countries in the Pacific and Australia.
America joined South Korea while China and the Soviet Union joined North Korea. The outcome of the war resulted in no winner. Since there was no victory for either country, Korea returned to the same status before the war, two countries of different beliefs (Cannarella 45). Although the outcome of the war was no victory for either side, Truman’s decision to participate in the war was proper because America’s goal was to prevent the spread of communism. When looking from this perspective, the war was a victory because the spread of communism was
Korea’s history already determined it was a weak country, having been a pawn for Far Eastern powers, so Cold War had left it nearly destroyed with epidemics, poverty, limited education, and authoritarian rulers (LaFeber, 2008). In this state, Korea was left vulnerable to communism. In 1945, the 38th parallel marked the ally agreement of disarming the occupying Japanese military, however by the end of the Korean War, it would be the indivisible line that divided the country between communism and democracy (LaFeber, 2008). In June 1950, when North Korean troops passed the 38th parallel, President Truman gave the order for American air and naval units to move into action to aid South Korea and to show the United States’ opponents that “the United States was no longer content with mere “containment” but now aimed for liberation (LaFeber, 2008, p. 114). LaFeber (2008) explains President Truman’s intent, “
The war went to North Korea’s odds of winning being higher to South Korea’s of winning being higher (655). In the end, the war landed in a stalemate at the 38th Parallel Line and neither side would budge (655). Eisenhower ended the Korean War by using the threat of atomic weapon use to get a peace treaty signed in 1953 and Korea stayed divided (656). Eisenhower ended the war that would not admit that it was already
‘Under the leadership of the U.S, the South Korean forces pushed the invaders past the originally established 38th parallel, to the Yalu River that bordered the People's Republic of China (P.R.C). After which, the P.R.C quickly counter attacked and, after 2 years of futile war at the 38th parallel, agreed to the original border.’ (Crash Course, 2013). These excerpts from this source represent the widely accepted reasoning behind the actions that transpired during the war and indicate further information about the events within it. Evidence from both Professor Lee and Crash Course reveal the causes of the Korean War and the reasons for its proxy of the Cold War status.
There are many things that chipmunks do in order to get ready for the winter. Some of the things they have to do is build their homes so that they are warm for the winter. Also chipmunks are the type of animal that live underground tunnels almost like a maze. Chipmunks are solitary sleepers so they do not have to do as much work to get food for their babies, they just have to care for themselves.
To illustrate, Yi Hangno in 1866, as junior assistant secretary affiliated to the Royal Secretariat, realized the necessity of building military force and the support from the people to depend the national physical and economic boundaries from the Western invasion because the nation realized China’s incapability to protect Korea from Western invasion. Thus, Yi wanted qualified officials who can promote and recruit “a militia of loyal and dependable men to assist the government forces” and who can “enrich the people and cause them to look up to the king” (238). In order to do so, Yi called upon Confucian principle, “a rule by moral principle as in the past” (237). The officials should be “respected and trusted”, in order to maintain “hierarchical order of the political system” to depend the foreign invasion
At the turn of the century, America and Japan were in good spirits with each other. In President William McKinely’s Annual Message to Congress, he reported “Japan's declarations in favor of the integrity of the Chinese Empire and the conservation of open world trade therewith have been frank and positive” and “under the treaties(American purchase of Puerto Rico, Cuba, and Guam) which took effect July 17, 1899, has proceeded without international friction, showing the competence of the Japanese to hold a foremost place among modern peoples'' showing the happy relationship between the two countries and setting the standard for what America strived for the relationship to be like in the following years(William 1900). However, the multiple accounts of the rising tensions followed by Diplomacy slowly broke the relationship down. The Gentlemen’s Agreement starting in 1905 was the first time conflict between the countries has risen. This was the start of the Anti-Japanese policy in America and despite setting it with the agreement at the time, the policy rooted itself within the country slowly splintering the American Japanese bond.
Throughout this period there was also tension between China, Russia and Japan over the control of Korea, for its natural resources and for its strategic position. With Growing political tension between nations, a treaty was formed between Japan and China in 1885; this treaty gave China the political control over Korea. This treaty stood until 1894 when Japan demanded the control of Korea. This lead to the Sino-Japanese war (1894-1895). (University of North Carolina
