Causes of the Korean War and the Influence of Joseph Stalin

Wars of often put into simple narratives when being taught to students, the problem with this is that wars require many people overseeing and directing them from before-to-after; Modern wars even more-so. The Korean War is a war everyone believed to be simple, but this was proven wrong when dialogues between Kim Il-Sung, Mao Zedong, and Joseph Stalin were released in the 1990s, showing that the Korean War was a collective effort of these leaders and revealing new motives, disagreements and predictions about the world that influenced their decision making.
