    North Korea invaded South Korea as much as revolutionary Americans “invaded” loyalist Americans.

    North Korea indeed did have some troubles in the 1990s, which is to be expected when one is cut off from all support, yet they pulled through well and are now self-sufficient. One can’t say the same about South Korea with its worsening living conditions and plummeting birth rates, and this is with Western support.

      From Wikipedia:

      After failed attempts of negotiations on unification, North Korean army (Korean People’s Army or KPA) forces crossed the border and drove into South Korea on 25 June 1950.

      Sounds way more like Russia invading Ukraine.

        Was the American revolution an “invasion” against the english? Or the French revolution an “invasion” against the monarchists?
