	Kuk Sool Won Eastbourne: History of Kuk Sool Won
		The unification of the three kingdoms came in a single decade, which saw a successful alliance between SILLA and the rulers of the Chinese TANG dynasty, who had observed that previous single-handed attempts by rulers of the preceding Chinese SUI dynasty had failed time after time to conquer KOGURYO.
		As fierce battles raged between TANG and SILLA, revolts and uprisings began to flourish in the previously conquered territories of PAEKCHE and KOGURYO.
		There is no doubt that SILLA's conquest of PAEKCHE and KOGURYO, and eventually the TANG forces - their former allies who had turned against them - was due to the decisive role played the HWA RANG.
