When most people think about North and South Korea, they think of two nations that will never be able to reconcile and be able to reunite, two nations that have been at each other’s throats for a long time. I am one of those people. In my opinion there are many reasons why they will not be able to reunite as one nation again. The first reason why I believe that these two very different nations will not be able reunite with each other is that, these nations are just two different to reunite evenly and fairly in the end. When you look at North Korea, many people see a tough nation.

I believe that the generations that were taught to hate each other for all of those years would continue to hate no matter what their governments say. I believe that it would then turn to riots, public protest, and civil unrest. There would be people always fighting and retaliating with each other.
