What is the significance of the 38th parallel?

The 38th parallel north is a circle of latitude that is 38 degrees north of the Earth's equatorial plane. It crosses Europe, the Mediterranean Sea, Asia, the Pacific Ocean, North America, and the Atlantic Ocean. The 38th parallel north formed the border between North and South Korea prior to the Korean War.

At the end of WWII, Japan surrendered the peninsula, known today as Korea, that was controlled by the Soviet Union and America. The peninsula was split into two zones along the 38th parallel, the Soviets controlled the North and America controlled the South. In 1498, two different government were established in either of the zones. North Korea was Democratic and South Korea was Republican, however both governments wanted total control of Korea. This led to a war which resulted in a border being drawn along the 38th parallel known as the Dematerialized zone (DMZ).

Which was one of the causes that led to the Great Sioux War in 1876?
Semmy [17]

<u>The correct answer is D. Gold was discovered in the Black Hills of South Dakota</u>. The federal government forgot the <em><u>Treaty of Laramie of 1868,</u></em> and on December 3, 1875, <em><u>ordered the Sioux to evacuate the territory and decreed a peremptory period (January 31, 1876</u></em>), after which those who refused to return to the reserves would be considered "hostile" with all the consequences that this term implied. The federal government decided to organize a military expedition to expel the now "hostiles" from the territory that had formally been recognized only eight years ago. In February 1876, preparations began. A long and extensive campaign was foreseen, given the difficulties of the climate and the immensity of the territory that had to be covered. In a first expedition, <em><u>the general George Crook left the first of March of 1876 towards the valleys of the Yellowstone and the Powder River, with the specific mission to destroy the village of the chief Sioux Caballo Loco</u></em>, after the Sioux Tribe declared war on the intruders and on the United States, as a consequence of the permanent invasions of <u>the sacred territory of the Black Hills because of the discovery of the existence of gold in 1871.</u>
