What is martial law? What is happening in South Korea and a look at if it could happen in Nevada

The article discusses the concept of martial law, its implications, and its relevance to current events in South Korea and potential scenarios in Nevada. Martial law involves the military taking control of civilian functions, typically during emergencies like war, natural disasters, or civil unrest, suspending some civil rights and imposing military governance. In South Korea, there's been discussion about martial law due to political instability, with historical precedents like the 1980 Gwangju Uprising where martial law led to significant civilian casualties. In Nevada, while there's no immediate threat of martial law, the article explores hypothetical situations where it might be considered, such as extreme civil disorder or a catastrophic event. It also touches on the legal framework in the U.S., where the Insurrection Act allows the President to deploy military forces domestically under certain conditions, though this is rare and controversial due to its implications for civil liberties.
