Explanation:
The Korean War was a conflict that began in 1950 and ended in 1953 between North Korea that was communist and supported by China and the Soviet Union and South Korea supported by the U.S., although many other countries were involved in this war. During this three year war, there were many attempts from both sides to invade and conquer the other side, as neither North Korea nor South Korea accepted the border set between both territories in 1948. However, by the end of the war in 1953 when an agreement was signed Korea remained divided as at the beginning of the war but a territory was created between both Koreas called the Korean Demilitarized Zone that officially divided North and South Korea. Therefore, the statement that summarizes the results of the Korean War is "a permanent divide was established between North and South Korea".
