Prime Minister of South Korea

mentioned previously, the South Korean Truth and reconciliation council was made in the image of the South African Truth and Reconciliation council. The commission wished to place an emphasis on finding out the historical proceedings in a concise and thorough manner. However, having been met with a slew of bureaucratic hurdles, the commission soon began to shift its’ tactics in a manner that would allow them to continue their search but not smirch the name of the South Korean Government. Without

The two governmental structures that I have chosen to analyse are those of North and South Korea. Despite being in very close quarters their governmental structures differ greatly. North Korea is a Communist state with “a one man dictatorship” (CIA World Fact Book), South Korea on the other hand, is a republic democracy (CIA World Fact Book). North Korea is the subject of one supreme leader, Kim Jong-un. The executive branch involves the head of government, Premier PAK Pong Ju and vice premiers

North Korea and South Korea remain split over their political ideology. Both nations run on completely different political ideologies. One party governs North Korea which establishes a common form of dictatorship. South Korea displays a democratic government with multiple political parties as well as government institutions serving as check and balances on other parts of the South Korean government. Through years of international involvement in the Korean Peninsula, North Korea and South Korea built

The country of Korea gained its independence from Japan after World War Two in 1945. The Republic of Korea (ROK) formed the southern government in August 1948 and the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea formed the northern government later that year. The Korean War began when North Korea invaded South Korea in 1950. In 1953, both sides signed an armistice splitting the country along a demilitarized zone, but with no peace agreement. Today, the two countries are considered the most heavily guarded

of 516 Soldiers and more than 1,200 soldiers wounded. Now Canada also made a huge sacrifice with resources, Canadian Warships were sent to Korean waters to help protect the UN carriers. Not only that Canada’s air force also took people from North Korea and brought them to a safer place, also with these planes they brought resources. There were also Canadian fighter pilots who flew with the United

On September 28, 1950, the 3rd Battalion of the Royal Australian Regiment arrived in Pusan, South Korea in what would be Australia’s major contribution in the war effort against invading forces from the north of the Korean peninsula, to the Korean People’s Army (KPA). “Following Prime Minister Sir Robert Menzies’ endorsement of UNSC Resolution 82, this would see the beginning of a three year conflict in which Australia would commit 17,000 troops and suffer over 300 fatalities, only five years after

Pre 1950 The Battle of Vimy Ridge took place in April 1917. This battle was the most intricately planned operation on the Western front by the Allied troops during World War One. It was led by Canadian General, Sir Arthur Currie, and was the first time all four Canadian Corps fought together in the war. It was also the first time Canadian troops, led by a Canadian, shared a total Canadian victory. This battle was a defining event for Canada, as it was a major step in achieving full independence

bartender or a CEO your fate lies in your hands and not the governments. Also the biggest perk to democracy is the right to vote. You can vote on you countries leader vs. a king or a prime minister. The people of democracy have a say in the government. The USSR supports Communism. Communism is led by a prime minister and gives the people no choices. You may not choose who leads your country. The government decides your future you have no say in your job or your pay. Everything is decided for you

in World War II, Korea was split into two parts, North Korea and South Korea. North Korea was occupied by the communist country of USSR while South Korea was held by the Americans and other democratic nations. War officially broke out on June 25, 1950, when the North Koreans assaulted across the country's division on the 38th Parallel with their men and artillery behind them. North Korea and its leaders wanted to unify the whole country from its division by taking over South Korea under their government

Australia and Japan expressed their interest in signing a defence technology cooperation agreement after Japanese Prime Minister Abe and Australian Prime Minister Tony Abbott ’s meeting during Abe’s visit to Australia in July (Prime Minister of Australia 2014). This is surprising for the international society as the Japanese constitution did not allow Japan to export its military technologies until the Japanese government’s recent change to Article 9 (Nye 2014). Even though the agreement is not signed
