Answer 3

[AI-generated answer — Explain Bot]

The answer to your question is D. Korea remains divided almost exactly as it was before the war. The Korean War, which started in 1950 and ended in 1953, resulted in an armistice agreement rather than a formal peace treaty. This agreement created a demilitarized zone (DMZ) that separated North Korea and South Korea, essentially keeping the two countries divided. Neither North Korea nor South Korea could claim complete victory or control over the entire Korean Peninsula. Hence, the division remained intact even after the war ended.
