Origins of the Cold War

Question 5 • 12011de2 CONNECTED Fall 2026 NM-World History and Geography S2

What was the political outcome of the Korean War?

Answer
A
Korea united under an independent Communist government.
B
Korea united under a democratic government.
C
China seized the peninsula, annexing Korea to China.
D
The division of the Korean peninsula remained unchanged.

Explanation

The Korean War ended in 1953 with an armistice, not a peace treaty. The border remained near the 38th parallel, leaving North Korea and South Korea as separate states. Thus, the division of the Korean peninsula remained unchanged; it was not united under either government.
