As the tide turned in the Korean War, UN leaders faced critical questions about the future of the conflict. The dynamic ROK leader made it clear he had no intention of reverting to the pre-invasion status quo, aiming instead to unify Korea by advancing to the Manchurian border.

The idea of the United States as a nation of immigrants is at the core of the American narrative. But in 1924, Congress instituted a system of ethnic quotas so stringent that it choked off large-scale immigration for decades, sharply curtailing arrivals from Southern and Eastern Europe and outright banning those from nearly all of Asia.
