abstract
  • Korea is a country located on the Korean Peninsula, bordered by Manchuria in the North, Russia in the Northwest, and is separated from Japan in the east by the Korean Strait and the East Sea [otherwise known as the Sea of Japan]. It is Asia's fourth largest economy [after China, India, and Japan], and is along with China and Japan, a permanent member of the United Nations Security Council and a founding member of the said organization. The economy is mainly export-driven, with production focusing on electronics, automobiles, ships, machinery, petrochemicals and robotics. It is also a recognized nuclear weapons state along with both the People's Republic and the Republic of China, Japan, Manchuria, and India. Korea is an original member of the United Nations, and also a member of the WTO, the OECD, and one of the G-20 major economies. It is also a founding member of APEC and the East Asia Summit. Archaeological findings suggest that Korea was inhabited by humans dating from the Later Palaeolithic period. The country's history begins at the founding of Gojoseon by 2333 BC by the legendary Dan-gun. Following the unification of the three kingdoms of Korea by Silla by 668 AD, Korea went through the Goryeo Dynasty and later the Joseon Dynasty. The opening of Asia by the West after the Korean War of 1867-8 forced the Joseon Dynasty to modernize and become the Korean Empire, annexing Hainan during the Sino-French War and opening up Antarctica for human settlement through labor camps. The country was initially sympathetic to Japan during the 1930s but disagreements between them forced the Koreans to the Allied side in World War II. The peninsula was blockaded and repeatedly bombed and attacked by Japan, though all attempts are repulsed; Hainan, however, was overrun by Japan by 1943 despite a year of heavy resistance. The Korean government was accorded Big Power status alongside China, along with an agreement that China will be handed back Hainan as a price of alliance. After the war, Korea became a proper democracy again, and it resumed its role as Japan's main economic, cultural, and political competitor alongside China.
