Answer 2

The correct answer is B) Korea achieve independence because Japan lost the war.

The movement toward independence in India differs from that in Korea in that Korea achieve independence because Japan lost the war.

The Japanese had invaded Korea and annexed it in 1910. The Korean independence leaders had to leave Korea and went to China, under the support of the Nationalist Government of China.

China became an Allied during World War II, so with the Declaration of El Cairo in 1943, Korea should be an independent nation, but the Soviet-Japanese War did not allow that to happen. The result of that confrontation divided Korea into North Korea, controlled by the Soviet Union, and South Korea, under the influence of the United States.
