The peninsula was later ruled by a number of states during the Three Kingdoms Period (57 BC-635 CE) which included Baekje and Goguryeo. Additionally, the northern part of the peninsula was occupied by the Balhae kingdom, which many historians do not consider to be a valid Korean state.<br><br>Following the Three Kingdoms arose the Proto-Three Kingdoms Period, or Several States Period. Baekje, the most powerful of these states, was diminished by the fall of Goguryeo (676 CE), leaving it with only its southern regions in Manchuria, and the western region around Hwanghae Bay.

Of those, 41% said that there was no scientific evidence to support the theory; 39% said it contradicted their religious beliefs; and 17 percent said they didn't know what it meant. This level of disbelief is comparable to that of the United States, where a majority of people do not accept that humans evolved from less advanced species of life.<br><br>In the past, the anti-evolutionist campaign in Korea was primarily focused on educating students and bringing Christ to them. A significant increase in interest in creation science came in 1980, with a four-day seminar held during the World Evangelization Crusade in Seoul which featured Drs.

The traditional Korean dress, the hanbok, was replaced by miniskirts and other fashion elements from abroad.

Wang Geon, a powerful local leader who defeated Gungye in 935 and unified Goryeo, Baekje, and Silla, later incorporated Baekje into Goryeo and acted as a peaceful successor.

From that point the Korean peninsula was ruled by the Goryeo Dynasty. During the Three Kingdoms period, Goguryeo, Baekje and Silla gradually developed into powerful states in Manchuria and on the peninsula.
