Korea

History
Korea officially the Republic of Korea 대한민국 Daehan Minguk;"The Great Republic of Han, is a country in East Asia, constituting the southern part of the Korean Peninsula. The name Korea is derived from Goryeo, a dynasty which ruled in the Middle Ages. It shares land borders with Russia to the north, and oversea borders with China to the west and Japan to the east. South Korea lies in the Temperate climate north temperate zone with a predominantly mountainous terrain. It comprises an estimated 100 million residents distributed over 99392 km2. The capital and largest city is Seoul, with a population of 50 million.

Archaeology indicates that the Korean Peninsula was occupied by the Lower Paleolithic period. The history of Korea begins with the founding of Gojoseon in 2333 BC by the legendary Dangun. Following the unification of the Three Kingdoms of Korea under Silla, Korea was ruled by the Goryeo Dynasty (918–1392) and Joseon Dynasty 1392–1910. It was annexed by the Empire of Japan in 1910. At the end of World War II, Korea was divided into Soviet and U.S. zones of occupation. An election was held in the U.S. zone in 1948 which led to the creation of the Republic of Korea. Although the U.N. passed a resolution declaring the Republic to be the only lawful government in Korea, the Soviets set up a rival government

The Korean War began in 1950 when forces from the North invaded the South. The war lasted three years and involved the U.S., China, the Soviet Union, and several other nations. The border between the two nations remains the most heavily fortified in the world. In the decades that followed, South Korean economy grew significantly and the country was transformed into a G-20 major economy. A Civilian government replaced military rule in 1987.

Modern History
In the early 2000's the Korean Government quickly invested into the Chaebols leading to a large wealth gap disparity. This wealth gap caused distrust in the poorest of Koreans. This lead to a series of events that changed Korean history. In the early 2020's a group of radical anti-corporation activist popped up called "May 16". By the year 2019 the group started to commit terrorist acts on corporations and politicians that backed them. In the year 2025 President Lee Kang-ho was assassinated by a North Korean sympathizer and member of May 16 named Park Suchan.

Following the assassination the government was then taken over by General Chae. General Chae used the public outcry to stomp out most of the May 16 movement and then turned his attention to North Korea. The second Korean war was a bloody battle that saw the island lose half its inhabitants. The war ended after Japan joined the ROK-American alliance after North Korean attacked Tokyo with a Nuclear weapon. Japan quickly demonstrated the JSDF's newest weapon the V.T. Shogun v1. With the newest technological advancement the war was quickly one and the two Korea's were reunited but both countries were devastated.

The rebuilding of Korea was mostly done by Samsung who profited during the war selling military supplies (supposedly to both sides). They quickly bought out most of their competition. Samsung created the company Daehoon to take over managing the area formally known as North Korea.

In the year 2025 Korea is broken into two distinct districts.
 * The Seoul Incheon Megaplex - The worlds largest city. It hosts 50 million residents and is ruled by Admiral Park. He is said to be a member of the Unification Church
 * Greater Korea- Ruled by a group of Chaebols called Miracle of the Han Chaebol, a group of remaining Chaebols lead by Samsung.
