although the treaty had caused difficulties during world war i, its terms were not changed. similar problems occurred before world war ii, but secretary of state cordell hull wanted to preserve the agreement because of its historical importance. in 1939 and 1940, canada and the united states agreed to interpret the treaty so that weapons could be installed in the great lakes but could not be operable until the ships left the lakes. in 1942, the united states, by then having entered the war and become allies with canada, successfully proposed that until the end of the war weapons could be completely installed and tested in the lakes. after discussions in the permanent joint board on defense, in 1946, canada similarly proposed to interpret the agreement as permitting using ships for training purposes if each country notified the other.

in the first half of the first millennium ce, the korean peninsula was divided into three kingdoms – baekje, silla, and goguryeo. these three kingdoms were rivals, and had engaged each other in wars for dominion over the peninsula for several centuries. in addition to the inter-korean rivalry, goguryeo had been engaged in frequent warfare with the chinese sui and tang dynasties. while the three korean kingdoms were not always military enemies, their alliances frequently shifted; a kingdom would become allies with one of the other two, only to later turn against that kingdom and (sometimes) become allies with the other kingdom against whom it had fought earlier. for example, silla and baekje would be allied against goguryeo (as they were from the late 420s to the early 550s), and later silla (or baekje) would betray the other (as happened in 553, when silla wrested control of the entire han river basin from baekje). by 660 ce, this state of affairs had been going on for some 3–4 centuries.
