Question

What was the result of the Korean War?

Answer 1

The result of the Korean War, after years of negotiations, was to sign an armistice between the two adversaries (North and South Korea) on July 27, 1953. In the armistice they drew a new boundary, near the 38th parallel, where the border was located before the war, although it gave South Korea an extra 1,500 square miles of territory.

Answer 2

Letter B is correct. Chinese troops didn't succeed in taking over South Korea because the United States intervined and so did the United Nations by calling on member states to support South Korea. The UN troops commanded by Douglas MacArthur drove the North Korean communists back toward the Chinese border. Korea was not  reunited as a single nation; at the end of the war they remained divided into two nations. By the end of the conflict, both sides had just about the same territory as they had before it started.
