E. Abstraction
The Korean Peninsula, located in Northeast Asia, is bordered on the north by China and
Russia and juts toward Japan to the southeast. The northernmost point is Yup'ojin in
Onsong-gun, Hamgyongbuk Province, and the southernmost point is Marado Island, Cheju
Province. The westernmost point is Maando Island in Yongch'on-gun, P'yong-anbuk
Province, and the easternmost is Dokdo Islets in Ulleung-gun, Gyeongsangbuk Province.
Since 1948, the Peninsula has been divided roughly along the 38th parallel with the
Republic of Korea to the south and the Democratic People's Republic of Korea to the
North; the total land area of the Republic of Korea is 99,394 square kilometers.

The Republic of Korea is composed of nine provinces, with Seoul as the capital city. Other
major cities include Pusan, Daegu, Incheon, Gwangju, and Daejeon. The landscape of the
country is spectacular in its variations and about 70 percent of it is mountainous, with more
than 3000 islands dotting the coastline. There are several major rivers in the South, one of
which is the Han River which cuts through Seoul.

Like other countries in the temperate zone, Korea has four distinct seasons. In spring and
autumn, the weather is superb: clear, blue skies and warm, gentle sunshine. Summer is
relatively hot and humid, with heavy rainfall occurring during the monsoon season. Winter
is cold and dry, with occasional snow. However, these cold spells alternate with periods of
milder weather.

A look back at the 5,000 years of Korean history reveals triumphs and tragedies,
successes and struggles -- all of which have been instrumental in shaping the Korea and
Koreans of today. It is unclear as to exactly when human habitation began on the Korean
Peninsula, but the Korean foundation myth dates back to 2333 B.C. when Tan-gun, a
mythical half-divine, half-human being, supposedly founded the nation from which all
Koreans are descended, providing Koreans with a sense of identity as one people. It
seems clear that it was during the Neolithic Age (c. 5000-1000 B.C.) that the nomadic
tribes from the continent who were the racial and ethnic ancestors of the modern Korean
people came to the Peninsula, although these original tribes intermingled with or were
assimilated by other nomadic tribes who were to arrive from the continent later, particularly
during the Bronze Age (c. 1000-300 B.C.).

Countless tribal communities and alliances rose and fell until from 18 B.C. to A.D. 668,
three highly centralized ancient kingdoms, Koguryo, Paekche and Shilla, emerged and
flourished on the Peninsula. Shilla conquered the other two kingdoms to become the sole
master of most of the Peninsula. To the north, some survivors from Koguryo established
the kingdom of Parhae in 698, which lasted until the 10th century. The Unified Shilla period
 witnessed a brilliant civilization which achieved rapid developments in the arts, religion,
commerce, education and all other fields.
he Koreans are one ethnic family speaking one language. They share certain distinct
physical characteristics which differentiate them from other Asian peoples including the
Chinese and the Japanese, and they have a strong cultural identity as one ethnic family.
The Mongol tribes which migrated onto the Korean Peninsula from Central Asia particularly
during the Neolithic Age (c. 5000-1000 B.C.) and the Bronze Age (c. 1000-300 B.C.).

The Koreans were a homogeneous people by the beginning of the Christian era. In the
seventh century A.D., they were politically unified for the first time by the Shilla Kingdom
(57 B.C.-A.D. 935) and subsequently witnessed a great cultural flourishing.
