Korea : Land & People

The Koeran peninsula occupies a pivotal position in East Asia, situated between China, Russia and Japan. A single country from the seventh until the twentieth century, Korea is now divided as a result of the Korean War (1950-53).

 

Mountains form over seventy percent of the land of Korea. The northern frontier with China is marked by the Amnok and Tuman rivers, which rise on the slopes of Mount Paektu, Korea's holy mountain.

 

The origins of the Korean people lie in the Altai region of southern Siberia. This is reflected in the Korean spoken language. The Koreans used Chinese written script until the invention in the fifteenth century of han'gul, a Korean phonetic script
