KOREAN WAR TIMELINE

Civil War in China

(Aug 1, 1927 – Dec 7, 1949)

The Civil War in China is technically considered a Cause to the Korean War. The war in China essentially started because it was split between pro government nationalist and communist revolutionaries. I would say this is a Political issue becasue there was a differnce in the government whihc led to a civil war.

Topic 1

WWll

( Sep 1, 1939 – Sep 2, 1945)

Topic 2

Next is WWII and this might be considered as a cause becasue after WWII Korea had ended up spliting into different parts. WWII consisted of many countries allying their powers to overtake other countries in warfare. I would also say this is political because there was multiple countries were involved in a big war over a rise of problems

Mao Zedong founds the People’s Republic of China

(September 21, 1949)

Mao Zedong founding the Peoples Republic of China is actually also a cause to the war. Essentially Mao was transforming China from a semi colony to a strong world power. This event would probabyl be classified as social becasue he was trying to change to society as a whole to make them stronger.

Topic 3

Korea divided into two countries

(1945 until 1950)

Topic 4

Korea being divided into two countries was was another cause of the Korean War. Korea was essentially divided after WWII becasue the United Nations got involved with them. This lead to the north being more focused on communism and the south to be a more free country. This would be considered under the political or social aspect because the people are now split and so is the government.

North Korea invades South Korea

(June 25, 1950)

Topic 5

When North Korea invaded South Korea that whould be considered as a cause of the Korean War. This event is bacsically North Korean troops starting to attack the South Koreans. To do this they crossed the 38th parallel but south Korea had help from UN and the US. This would be Economic becasue the north was trying to take over the south

Us Enters the war

(June 27, 1950)

Topic 6

The US basically joins during the course of the Korean War. General Douglas MacArthur was the one leading his troops and had planned for a counter attack to make the North Koreans leave. I would say this is Economic becvause the US was getting involved to help South Korea push back the North Korean forces.

China enters the war

(19 October 1950)

Topic 6

China entering the war is also a event that happened during the course of the Korean War. When China joined the war they first sent down 300,000 troops. The Chinese forces outnumbered the UN forces and caused them to retreat. This is also a Economic situation because the CHinese go involverd to help the North.

Surprise landing at Inchon

(September 15–26, 1950)

Topic 6

The Surprise Landing at Inchon was another event that took place during the coures of the war. All that I can say about this is that this helped the U.N forces push back North Korea back to the Chinese Border. Also the US Marine forces made a surprise landind at the port of inchon giving this event its name I would say this is also a economic event because South Korea called upon the US to help them comabt the opposing forces.

South Korea pushed back to 37 th Parallel

(Winter 1950/1951)

Topic 6

South Korea got pushed back to the 37th Parallel was happening during the course of the Korean War. What basicaly happened was the UN troops were pushed back due to Chinas staggering numbers. This woulld be a economic or political event becasue the Chinese were applying pressure to push back the UN forces and get them back

MacArthur removed from leadership in Korea

( April 11, 1951)

Topic 6

MacArthur being removed from leadership had also happened during the course of the war. Basically MacArthur invaded China and won a claen victory. On the contrary Truman was trying to limit war and ther fore removed MacArthur from leadership. This would be a politcal event becasue MacArthur was a general and was removed by Truman for going against his ideals.

U.N. retakes up to the 38 th Parallel

(Spring 1951)

Topic 6

What basically happened was the UN forces had secured a position close to the 38th parrallel . This had led to stalemate . This all happened during the course of the war. I consider this a economic event becasue they are jsut taking a piece of land that was unclaimed to gain an upper hand on the other side.

Ceasefire declared

June 1953

Topic 6

The ceasfire happened during the course of the war and this was basically saying the War has come to an end. Eventhouhg the war had ended both parts of Korea remain divided. This a Economic and political event because both pieces of korea had ended the war and stayed on their side of land

Creation of SEATO

September of 1954

Topic 6

The creation of SEATO was a consequence of the war. This basically said that there was no clear winner . It also meant that there was a containment of communism in places like asia and they couldn't go into wat without congressional approval. This is considered as Social and Economic becasue the land was contained of communism and now future leaders have to communicate with South east asia before going into combat
