US and UN intervention via the Korean War appear to have preserved a democratic government there. I am not an expert on internal South Korean politics, however AND make no claim to be. It just happens to come to mind since I know the South Koreans are generally strongly anti-communist. Anyone else have better data? Mark Kohls ihuxw!thor
