Korea was ruled by Japan<span> from 1910 until the closing days of </span>World War II<span>. In August 1945, the Soviet Union declared war on Japan, as a result of an agreement with the United States, and liberated Korea north of the </span>38th parallel<span>. U.S. forces subsequently moved into the south. By 1948, as a product of the Cold War between the Soviet Union and the United States, Korea was split into two regions, with separate governments. Both governments claimed to be the legitimate government of all of Korea, and neither side accepted the border as permanent.

Answer:
Similarities:
-The two documents are popular in their countries of origin with the Magna Carta being popular in Britain and the Declaration being popular in the United States.
- The documents were both borne out of rebellion; the Magna Carta was first established after conflicts between the King and rebel barons and the Declaration was established after conflict between the thirteen American states and Great Britain.
-The two documents both sought to assert individual human freedoms and rights.
Differences:
- Where the Declaration confirms that power rests with the people, the Magna Carta asserted that power rests with the sovereign until changes through the Six Statutes sought to limit these powers.
- In the Magna Carta the rights of the people are granted by the government while in the Declaration, people's rights are God given. The Declaration was based on universal principles regarding all human beings but the Magna Carta was based on a particular group of people (barons) but which was later changed to the more inclusive term any freeman.

b.Johnson
Soon after the death of Lincoln, the war ended in 1865, as Andrew Johnson took the lead of the country trying to conciliate with the South. This caused a movement of people to the South, where within a year, they regained the power they had previously lost with the war. Naturally, the term carpetbagger is peyoraitve,and it was referred to Johnson and his Republican companions seen as opportunists. They plan was to be elected after the civil war came to an end. They sought approval from the South, where they were rather unpopular. The word is still sometimes in use in the United States referring to candidates for elections presented by their political parties in electoral areas with few or non-existent popularity.
