Korea Proud Country Heart Flag T-Shirt for Toddler

For many centuries, South Korea was an independent kingdom, but after 1905 the country was ruled by the Japanese. After Japan surrendered to the USA after the Second World War in 1945, Korea gained independence again, but the country soon was split between South Korea (which is largely supported by the USA) and communist North Korea along the 38 degrees latitude. Since 1953 South Korea's economy expanded successfully, while the people in North Korea are very poor and the relations between the two Koreas are very strained. South Korea is located in Eastern Asia and sits on the Korean peninsula. The only land borders are with North Korea. South Korea has a coastline of about 2,413km/1,500 miles length.
