These two primarily were one was sometime back. Then later they were divided by Russia and Japan who were looking forward to colonize each territory; Russia to the North and Japan to the south. Later the war that preceded this division was terrible. This was facilitated by the notion and the presence of the cold war and China was encouraging the North to be communist country. In an effort to tame China U.S supported the South Korea so as they resist the communist rule and that how the Korean Peninsula crisis came in. the tension between the two countries was again heightened by the act of North Korea testing the nuclear weapons on 2006 CITATION Hug07 \l 1033 (Hughes, 2007).
