<span>Korea had been under Japanese domination since 1910, and had been very isolationist for most of the centuries before then. During the Japanese occupation, Japan tried to eliminate Korea as a separate country - suppressing their local government and their language, forcing Koreans to take Japanese names, destroying or stealing hundreds of cultural artifacts. When Japan surrendered in 1945 it was forced to give up conquered territories, including Korea.
Hundreds of thousands of Koreans died during WWII, as forced laborers and conscripted soldiers. Perhaps as many as 100,000 Korean girls and women were forced into sexual slavery as "comfort women". By the end of the war, more than 800,000 Japanese colonists were occupying Korea, though the majority of those returned to Japan after the surrender.
When Soviet Russia entered the war against Japan in the few days before Japan surrendered, it claimed the right to occupy some Japanese territories during the transition period to what was supposed to be home rule for former Japanese conquests. Between 1945 and 1948, while the United Nations was trying to help the Koreans set up an independent government, the Soviet Russians were working hard in their occupation zone to set up a communist government in their own image - this led to two Koreas, North and South, which led to the Korean War and the current stalemate between the two Koreas. The partition of Korea into North and South is a direct result of the end of World War II.</span>

The Ming dynasty ruled China from 1368 to 1644 and famous for its literature, drama, and world-renowned porcelain.
There was a law in the Ming dynasty that states that any person involved in criminal activities is not allowed to become a monk in the future. The Great Ming Code was made in 1373 that includes all the laws regarding religion, social relations, international affairs, rituals, and economic trades.
A historian finds documentary evidence of this law, then the chronology can be determined by evaluating if the law was passed before or after the Great Ming Code.
Hence, the correct option is "B".

Explanation:
The rate of population growth is the rate of natural increase combined with the effects of migration. Thus a high rate of natural increase can be offset by a large net out-migration, and a low rate of natural increase can be countered by a high level of net in-migration. Generally speaking, however, these migration effects on population growth rates are far smaller than the effects of changes in fertility and mortality.
The earth's subsystems that played a major role in the formation of Oceania are:
1. Hydrosphere
2. Lithosphere
The lithosphere is the primary subsystem responsible for the formation of the islands in Oceania. Most of which are formed from the collision of the tectonic plates in the earth's crust while some are formed by volcanic eruptions.
The Hydrosphere is responsible for the formation of most coral islands found in this territory. A build-up of coral reefs constitutes an atoll that can be defined as an island.
