Is there any historical origin between Korea and North Korea?

Korea belonged to China in ancient times, and it was also a dependency of China in history.

In ancient Korea and Korea, only the Tang Dynasty and the Western Han Dynasty were the territory of China, and other dynasties, such as Yuan, Ming and Qing, were only the vassals of China. After Emperor Wu of the Western Han Dynasty pacified Weishi Korea in 18 BC, the four counties of Lelang County, Xuantu County, Lintun County and Zhenfan County, which were set up in the present Korean peninsula, belonged to Youzhou, and Korea became one of the counties in the Han Dynasty.

History of South Korea and China

When Emperor Wudi ascended the throne, Emperor Wudi sent troops to defeat and annex Weiman Korea, and then established Xuantu, Zhenfan, Lintun, Le Lang and Han Counties. There is a descendant of Jizi Korea named JiZhun, who established a political power in the south of the Korean peninsula, called Mahan.

Later, Mahan was divided into three parts, namely Mahan, Chenhan and Gehan, which was the predecessor of Korea and the reason why Korea was called Korea. This is why they call themselves descendants of Sanhan. Later, because the national strength of the Han Dynasty was weakening day by day, it gradually lost its control over the Korean Peninsula, which is the origin of North Korea and South Korea.
