Answer:

As Kim Jong Un and Moon Jae-in held their landmark meeting, the world's attention turns to the Korean Peninsula — a region with deep historical and cultural similarities but stark ideological differences.

A little history — how the split happened  

In the last days of World War II, when it became clear Japan would surrender to the Allied powers, the question of what would happen to Korea became louder than ever. After decades of occupying the Korean Peninsula, Japan had retreated.

The United States and Soviet Union agreed to divide Korea at the 38th parallel in August 1945, with the US taking the southern part and the Soviet Union the north.

The plan was to hand back control to the Koreans and withdraw, and in 1948 several attempts were made at getting the nations to vote for reunification.

But the distrust engendered by a few years of opposing ideologies had grown too deep. What started as an almost "accidental division" gave rise to one of the most hostile and heavily militarized borders in the world, and split one people in two.

Human rights and personal liberty

North Korea is now a Stalinist state and is accused of holding hundreds of thousands of people — including children — in political prison camps and other detention facilities across the country. It also receives the lowest ratings when it comes to press freedom and government accountability.

Years of isolation have seriously damaged North Korea's economy, and the country's populace has long suffered from poverty and famine. The United Nations reports that over a third of the population is malnourished and many people lack access to proper healthcare.

Life in South Korea, on the other hand, is fueled by an unashamedly loud and proud style of capitalism. The country is also officially a constitutional democracy.

However, it does have its own political prisoners. South Korea's controversial National Security Law makes it an offense to express sympathies with North Korea. But South Korea ranks as far less corrupt than its northern neighbor.

And it's a key ally for Western powers — particularly the United States, which still stations around 30,000 American soldiers on South Korean soil and holds regular military drills with the South's troops.

The size divide

Despite a similar geographical size, South Korea's population (over 51 million) is almost twice as large as North Korea's (more than 25 million). Due to their poor diet, North Koreans tend to be smaller than South Koreans. This is most visible among school children.

Daniel Schwekendiek from Sungkyunkwan University in Seoul estimated the height difference to be "approximately 4 centimeters among pre-school boys and 3 centimeters among pre-school girls."

The difference in life expectancy is similarly notable: while South Koreans on average live to the ripe old age of 82, North Koreans die ten years younger at 70.

Here's the list as given, with numbers showing order:

4. Many Jewish immigrants flee Europe for Palestine.

5. Israel is created as a country.

1. Antisemitism starts to develop in Europe.

2. The Nazi Party comes to power in Germany.

3. Jews are persecuted in Germany.


Note:  I numbered "Many Jewish immigrants <u>flee</u> Europe for Palestine" after the Nazis began persecuting Jews in Germany, because that was definitely a time of <u>flight</u>.  The settlement of Palestine by Jews had already begun before that time, but "fleeing" was more the case as Nazi persecution took hold.

Here's the list in order, then:

  1. Antisemitism starts to develop in Europe.
  2. The Nazi Party comes to power in Germany.
  3. Jews are persecuted in Germany.
  4. Many Jewish immigrants flee Europe for Palestine.
  5. Israel is created as a country.

Further details/context:

Anti-Semitism was strong in Europe already in the Middle Ages, when Jews were accused of such things as spreading the plague by poisoning wells, or using the blood of murdered Christians to make the matzah for their Passover rituals.  The term "anti-Semitism" as a description for hostile opposition to the Jewish people was first used by Wilhelm Marr in 1879 in Germany.  Marr supported campaigns against Jews and began using the term "anti-Semitism" as a euphemism for what better might have been called "Jew-hating."

The Zionist movement began in the late 1800s, focused on establishing a homeland for anyone of Jewish ethnicity.   Theodore Herzl is typically credited with getting the secular Zionist movement started with his book,  <em>Der Judenstaat</em> ("The Jews' State), published in 1896.  Herzl also led in the founding of the World Zionist Organization, established by the First World Zionist Congress held in Switzerland in 1897.    Convinced that the Jews would never truly be welcomed or assimilated within the countries of Europe, Herzl argued for establishment of their own homeland somewhere. Eventually that "somewhere" became a movement focused on going back to the ancestral land of Israel.

The push for Israel as the homeland of Jews intensified during the 1930s as Nazi efforts in Germany turned heatedly against Jewish people, and the Holocaust of the 1940s ultimately turned world sympathy even more to the plight of the Jews and endorsed their establishment of a home state.
