History Of North Korea
The history of North Korea began at the end of World War II in 1945. The surrender of Japan led to the division of Korea at the 38th parallel, with the Soviet Union occupying the north, and the United States occupying the south. The Soviet Union and the United States failed to agree on a way to unify the country, and in 1948, they established two separate governments – the Eastern Bloc, Soviet-aligned North Korea, Democratic People's Republic of Korea and the Western Bloc, American-aligned South Korea, Republic of Korea – each claiming to be the legitimate government of all of Korea. In 1950, the Korean War broke out. After much destruction, the war ended with a stalemate. The division at the 38th parallel was replaced by the Korean Demilitarized Zone. Tension between the two sides continued. Out of the rubble North Korea built an industrialized command economy. Kim Il-sung led North Korea until his death in 1994. He developed a pervasive Cult of personality, personality cul ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Similarly, the other cardinal directions are also related to the sun's position. The Latin word ''borealis'' comes from the Greek '' boreas'' "north wind, north", which, according to Ovid, was personified as the wind-god Boreas, the father of Calais and Zetes. ''Septentrionalis'' is from ''septentriones'', "the seven plow oxen", a name of ''Ursa Major''. The Greek ἀρκτικός (''arktikós'') is named for the same constellation, and is the source of the English word ''Arctic''. Other languages have other derivations.
