Answer 2

The Korean War was relatively short but exceptionally bloody. Nearly 5 million people died. More than half of these about 10 percent of Korea's prewar population-were civilian (this rate of civilian casualties was higher than World War II's and Vietnam's). Almost 40,000 Americans died in action in Korea, and more that 100,000 were wounded.

Step-by-step explanation:

The Korean War took place between 1950 and 1953. It faced the Republic of Korea (or South Korea), supported by the armed forces of several countries commanded by the United States; against the Democratic People's Republic of Korea (or North Korea), supported by the People's Republic of China and the Soviet Union. The war was one of the earliest episodes of the Cold War. Killing more than 3 million civilians and almost 15% of the population of the North, it constitutes one of the most bloody wars in history.
