	Line of Demarcation - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Line of Demarcation was an imaginary longitude, moved slightly from the line drawn by Pope Alexander VI to divide new lands claimed by Portugal from those of Spain.
		This line was drawn in 1493 after Christopher Columbus returned from his maiden voyage to the Americas.
		Although the line was created to settle territorial disputes between the sole powers at that time, it did not take into account the rise of other powers such as France, nor the Protestant nations of Britain or the Netherlands, who ignored the papal demarcation and staked their own claims.

	Military Demarcation Line (Korea) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
