Map of Korea in French

La Corée.

Daniel Kang (class of '18) found this awesome, old map of Asia IN FRENCH! He explained that the country of Korea was first introduced to the western world during the Goryeo [Koryo] dynasty [918-1392]. The word Goryeo is where we got the word, ‘’Korea,’’ the French word ‘’Corée.’’ and all the names that the West has for Korea. The countries of northern Europe spell Korea with a ‘’K’’ while countries of southern Europe spell it with a ‘’C.’’ This map was created in the 1700s and has Korea labelled as "Corée."

"Make a career of humanity. Commit yourself to the noble struggle for equal rights. You will make a greater person of yourself, a greater nation of your country, and a finer world to live in." - Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.

“Everybody can be great, because everybody can serve. You don’t have to have a college degree to serve. You don’t have to make your subject and your verb agree to serve. You don’t have to know about Plato and Aristotle to serve. You don’t have to know Einstein’s “Theory of Relativity” to serve. You don’t have to know the Second Theory of Thermal Dynamics in Physics to serve. You only need a heart full of grace, a soul generated by love.” - Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.
