A.) South Korea remained communist

B.) China and the United States insisted on it

D.) the Soviet Union’s influence decreased

Answer 1

A

Step-by-step explanation:

When the Japanese empire was dismantled at the end of World War Two, Korea fell victim to the Cold War. It was divided into two spheres of influence along the 38th parallel. The Americans controlled south of the line - the Russians installed a communist regime in the north, later ceding influence to China
