Why is North Korea divided into two countries? Is the language of North Korea the same as that of South Korea
4hw.com.cn: North Korea and South Korea belong to the same country, the same nation and almost the same language. Many people don't know why North Korea split into North Korea and South Korea? Let's have a look.
The earliest regime of North Korea was established in 194 BC by Weiman, a remnant of Yan state, known as Weiman North Korea. In the later period of Emperor Wu of the Western Han Dynasty, the Han army conquered Weiman Korea and set up counties. At that time, Korea was under the direct jurisdiction of the central government of the Han Dynasty. In the 4th century, during the period of China's Eastern Jin and Sixteen Kingdoms, the central government lost effective control over North Korea, and Koguryo took the lead in the rise of the Yalu River. Later, Koguryo developed to the north and controlled the southern part of Jilin Province. After that, Xinluo rose on the Bank of Luodong River and Baiji rose on the Korean Peninsula, coexisting with Koguryo, known as the "Three Kingdoms" of North Korea. Around the 7th century, with the help of the Tang Dynasty, Xinluo completed the reunification of the Korean Peninsula.
In the 10th century AD, Xinluo General Wang Jian launched a coup and established the 'Koryo Dynasty', which ruled until the end of the 14th century AD. In 1392, Li Chenggui, the general of Koryo, overthrew the Koryo Dynasty and established the Korean Dynasty, which was historically known as "Li's Korea".
Li's rule lasted until 1896, when the Sino Japanese War of 1896, the Qing Dynasty was defeated, and Korea became the protectorate of Japan. At the beginning of the 20th century, the Korean king changed his name to "Korean Empire". Similar to Manchuria, it was a puppet regime controlled by the Japanese. Some Korean patriots set up a regime in exile in Shanghai (later moved to Chongqing with the national government), known as the 'Republic of Korea'. After the defeat of Japan in 1945, according to the Yalta agreement, the Soviet Union supported Kim Il Sung to establish the 'Democratic People's Republic of Korea' in the north of Korea, while the United States supported the returned regime 'Republic of Korea' in the south, with the 38th parallel as the dividing line between the two sides, which has continued to this day.
Therefore, after entering the civilized era, the Korean Peninsula has roughly experienced a process of confrontation between the north and the South during the period of 'defending Manchuria and Korea - & gt; four counties in the Western Han Dynasty - & gt; Koguryo, Xinluo, Baiji & lsquo; Three Kingdoms - & gt; uniting the Xinluo period - & gt; Koryo Dynasty - & gt; Lee's Korean period - & gt; Japanese colonial period - & gt; North and South Korea.
Because North Korea and South Korea belong to the same nation, they are divided into two countries due to historical and political reasons, and their languages are the same. However, due to the development of more than half a century, there are some differences between the languages of North Korea and South Korea.
