Historically, neonatal [[circumcision]] was promoted during late Victorian times in the English-speaking parts of [[Canada]], [[Australia]], [[New Zealand]], the [[United States]] and the [[United Kingdom]] and was widely practiced during the first part of the 20th century in these countries. However, the practice declined sharply in the United Kingdom after the Second World War, and somewhat later in Canada, Australia and New Zealand. In South Korea, circumcision was largely unknown before the establishment of the United States trusteeship in 1945.
