The Korean War was a war fought from 1950-1953 on the Korean Peninsula that was divided by the post-World War II Soviet and American occupation zones. The war began on June 25, 1950, when the communist Democratic People's Republic of Korea invaded the capitalist Republic of Korea. The conflict ended when a cease-fire was reached on July 27, 1953.

The principal support on the side of the North was China, with limited assistance by Soviet combat advisors, military pilots, and weapons. South Korea was supported by United Nations (U.N.) forces, primarily from the United States, although many other nations also contributed personnel. When the conflict began, North and South Korea existed as provisional governments competing for control over the Korean peninsula after the Division of Korea.

In South Korea, the war is often called 6·25, from the date of the start of the conflict or, more formally, Han-guk Jeonjaeng ( literally “Korean War”). In North Korea, it is formally called the Fatherland Liberation War . In the United States, the conflict was officially termed a police action — the Korean Conflict — rather than a war, largely in order to avoid the necessity of a declaration of war by the U.S. Congress. However, it is more commonly referred to as the "Korean War." The war is sometimes referred to outside Korea as “The Forgotten War” because it is a major conflict of the 20th century that garners far less attention than World War II, which preceded it, and the controversial Vietnam War, which succeeded it. In China, the conflict was known as the War to Resist America and Aid Korea but is today commonly called the “Korean War” (Chaoxian Zhanzheng).
