Balhae (Bohai)
Kingdom in Manchuria, northern Korea and the Russian Maritime region (698–926), founded by Dae Joyeong on the lands of Goguryeo and the Mohe tribes, with its upper capital near present-day Ning’an modelled on Chang’an. It traded and exchanged embassies with the Tang and Japan and was conquered by the Khitans in 926; Korean and Chinese historians dispute its place in their national histories.
