Answer:

The correct answer is B. In the Korean War, America had a stake in opposing Soviet-backed Communist North Korea because US occupation forces controlled South Korea. However, Chinese and North Korean forces fought the Allied armies to a stalemate.

Explanation:

The Korean War was fought between 1950 and 1953 between communist North Korea and prowest South Korea. North Korea was militarily supported in the war by the People's Republic of China and the Soviet Union. South Korea was supported by the United Nations and received military assistance from various UN countries, led by the United States.

The direct cause of the conflict was the division of the Korea empire that was annexed by Japan in 1910 after World War II. The northern part was occupied by the Soviet Union and the southern part by the United States. The 38th parallel was taken as the dividing line. The division would be temporary, but both parts soon developed into their own entities. The northern part became communist and the south could call itself - only in name - democratic. There was soon no longer a question of a peaceful merger of the two parts, and both parts considered using military force to conquer the other part.

After various border conflicts, the war began on June 25, 1950 with an invasion of North Korea on the south and ended on July 27, 1953 with a ceasefire, without the emergence of a true winner. The new dividing line came close to the 38th parallel. Since then no peace treaty has been concluded, so it can be said that formally the conflict continues.
