Answer 2

The correct answer is B.

The Korean Demilitarized Zone (DMZ) splits the Korean Peninsula in half creating a buffer zone between North and South Korea.

This border war created by agreement between North Korea, China and the United Nations Command in the year 1953, after the Korean War.

The DMZ is 160 miles long and 2,5 miles wide. It intersects but does not follow closely the 38th parallel north, which was the official border between the Soviets and the Americans in the Korean War.

The DMZ in Korea is considered to be one of the most dangerous borders in the world. Although demilitarized in the middle, the buffer zone on the North Korean side is heavily militarized and the military is always present and on alert there.
