The main reason that North Korea formed a communist government was that it was influenced by the Soviet Union. After World War II, the Korean Peninsula was divided into two zones of occupation, with the northern part being occupied by the Soviet Union and the southern part by the United States. The Soviets supported the establishment of a communist regime in North Korea, leading to the formation of the Democratic People's Republic of Korea under Kim Il-sung in 1948.
