The "War of the Arrows" refers to a significant conflict during the Korean War that took place in the early 1950s. This war involved the forces of North Korea and South Korea, along with their respective allies, primarily the United States and China. The conflict was marked by intense battles and shifting front lines, leading to a stalemate that lasted for years. The war is notable for its use of guerrilla tactics and the impact of modern weaponry, including artillery and air support. The fighting resulted in heavy casualties and widespread destruction, ultimately leading to an armistice in 1953, which established the Korean Demilitarized Zone (DMZ) and divided the peninsula into two separate nations.
