		Has Korea apologized for the two Mongol invasions of Japan via Korea in the 13th century?
		Unless it wants to become a Chinese vassal state, Japan will have to "go nuclear." Ironic, no?

		A number of messages were sent after that, some through Korean emissaries, and some by Mongol ambassadors.
		In the spring of 1281, the Mongols' Chinese fleet was delayed by difficulties in provisioning and manning the large number of ships they had.
		In a number of individual skirmishes, known collectively as the Battle of Kouan(弘安の役), or the Second Battle of Hakata Bay, the Mongol forces were driven back to their ships.

		The Mongol Empire under Khubilai Khan enlisted Koryo in its expeditions against Japan, mustering thousands of Korean men and ships for ill-fated invasions in 1274 and 1281.
		In each instance, seasonal typhoons shattered the Mongol-Koryo fleets, giving rise to the myth of kamikaze, or the "divine wind." Korea, in the meantime, was completely under Mongol domination.
		After the Three Kingdoms period, Korea witnessed the rise and fall of three dynasties--unified Silla (668-935), Koryo (918-1392), and Choson (1392-1910).

		At its height, the Mongol Empire spanned from Korea to Hungary, and included most of the lands in between, such as Afghanistan, Georgia, Armenia, Russia, Persia, China, and much of the Middle East.
		The Mongols attempted two unsuccessful invasions of Japan (see Mongol invasions of Japan).
		However, the Mongolian People's Revolutionary Party, for reasons both practical and philosophical, enacted an often brutal if not entirely effective sweeping aside Mongolian tradition, working against the Buddhist religions, clan-ism, and script, and for collectivism (as opposed to the traditional nomadic lifestyle).

		The legend of Empress Jingu’s "conquest" of Korea during the fifth century, for example, became popular after the Mongol Invasions because this victory too was attributed to divine intervention.
		Second, through an analysis of visual and literary sources pertaining to legendary foreign invasions and conquests, it will reveal how these mythical descriptions were in fact based upon accounts of the Mongol Invasions.
		Both mythical and historic accounts show striking parallels.

		When Yen was conqured by the Ch'in Dynasty in 222, its Korean possessions passed with it, though my map of the Ch'in actually doesn't show it extending that far, so perhaps Ch'in control quickly lapsed.
		The earliest important state in Korea was Old Choson, which began in the 4th century BC and endured until its conquest by the Chinese state of Yen (or Yan) around 300 BC.
		The pretext of the Manchu conquest was over the ovethrow of the local Mongol dynasty by other Mongols, who installed their own candidate for Dalai Lama.

		Reputable professional historians dispute this quite vigorously, although everyone agrees about the terrible destruction wrought by the Hideyoshi invasions in the late 16th century and Mongol invasion during the early 13th century.
		In the global competition for the prize of "most invaded territory" in history, I suspect Korea would be eliminated in the early rounds, even within its favored "most invaded peninsula" division.
		Sure, the Korean peninsula has been invaded more often than the Japanese archipelago over the last couple of millennia, but both are in the bush leagues in the global scheme of things.

	Korean History in a nutshell - China History Forum, online chinese history forum
		Joseon (as Korea was called during the Joseon Dynasty) dealt with invasions by Japan from 1592 to 1598 (see Seven-Year War).
		Under the Jin Dynasty, the Chinese rule still was present, but since it was a weak dynasty, the Xianbei, Tungus or proto-Mongol nomads took advantage of the situation, creating their own Yan kingdom (not the Yan of the Warring States era).
		Joseon was the name of Korea during most the Joseon Dynasty, which ruled from the fall of Goryeo in 1392 until the beginning of the Republic of Korea in 1919.

	JAPAN : Encyclopedia Entry
		The shogunate managed to repel Mongol invasions from Mongol-occupied Korea in 1274 and 1281, with assistance from a storm that the Japanese interpreted as divine intervention, and named kamikaze (Divine Wind).
		The Boshin War of 1867 to 1868 led to the resignation of the shogunate, and the Meiji Restoration established a government centered around the emperor.
		This period of isolation lasted for two and a half centuries, a time of tenuous political unity known as the Edo period, considered to be the height of Japan's medieval culture.

	Korean History
		However, during the Koryo rule of 500 years, the country was continuously harassed by northern tribes, such as the Khitan, and suffered tremendously from the 13th Century Mongol invasions and the later Chinese Mongol Dynasty, which eventually dominated the Koryo court.
		However, the North refused to participate, and elections were held only in the south, thereby giving birth to the Republic of Korea.
		Shilla subsequently conquered Koguryo in 668 AD, and thus was the Korean peninsula unified for the first time.

	AsiaFinest Discussion Forum -> Prince Ly Long Tuong
		He some how went off course and ended up in Korea where his descendants are living today! Prince Ly Long Tuong also became a general under the Korean King!! He sucessfully defeated two Mongol invasions protecting his new found home.
		I was pretty surprised when my mother told me about the Lys migrating to Korea and she also told me that Ly Long Tuong's brother also got lost and landed in Taiwan, thus, there are some Taiwanese with the last name Li who are actually of Vietnamese descendants.
		With that said, according to current findings, Korean never mixed with non-Mongoloid race.

	Mongol -- DBA 154
		The justification for the Spear elements is in their warfare in the Orient, especially in the invasions of Japan, where they used large numbers of Korean and Chinese foot equipped with large rectangular pavises of bamboo, and long spears.
		The Early Polish (#122) fought beside the Teutonic Knights at the battle of Leignitz; since that battle is the reason for the inclusion of the Teutonic Knights in the Mongol enemies list, it should suffice to justify the inclusion of the Early Polish as well.
		The Mongols fought battles as far south as Annam (modern Vietnam) and Burma, as far east as Korea and Japan.
