A. North and South Korea were still divided along the 38th parallel.

Explanation: North Korea was founded on October 3rd, 1945. Almost immediately after World War 2 ended: The Korean War had started on June 25th, 1950, and ended on July 27th, 1953. It did not result in the reunification of the Korean peninsula, but rather it “ensured a complete cessation of hostilities and of all acts of armed force in Korea until a final peaceful settlement is achieved.”
