| Quarantining a War | Sean Malone | | Professor Fuhrman | 4/26/2013 | POLS 418 | Only five years after the United States ended World War II by creating and using nuclear weapons on the Japanese mainland, we were already embroiled in the Korean War.

The Korean peninsula was divided along the 38th parallel, and the two Korean nations have remained divided ever since.
