The aftermath of the Korean War was profound in geopolitical terms for much of the world.[citation needed] The Korean War was important in the development of the Cold War, as it gave rise to the idea that the two superpowers, United States and Soviet Union, could fight a "limited war" in a third country. The "limited war" strategy was a feature of conflicts such as the Vietnam War and the Soviet War in Afghanistan.

  • The aftermath of the Korean War was profound in geopolitical terms for much of the world.[citation needed] The Korean War was important in the development of the Cold War, as it gave rise to the idea that the two superpowers, United States and Soviet Union, could fight a "limited war" in a third country. The "limited war" strategy was a feature of conflicts such as the Vietnam War and the Soviet War in Afghanistan. The Korean War was the first war in which the United Nations (UN) participated. Some commentators argued that it showed that the UN was a powerful organization for helping to keep world peace.[citation needed] The UN Command in South Korea is still functional. The war scarred both North and South Korea very much. Both nations suffered massive damage to their economies and infrastructure as a result of bombings and artillery strikes. In the aftermath of the war, South Korea was able to modernize and industrialize with the help of the United States.[citation needed] By contrast, North Korea's economy was, though at first was robust, however, by the 1980s, quite weak and has remained in poor condition.
