What name did japan give Manchuria?

Japan renamed Manchuria "Manchukuo" after it established a puppet state there in 1932. The name reflects the region's historical ties to the Manchu people, who originally ruled China during the Qing Dynasty. Manchukuo was presented by Japan as an independent state, although it was largely controlled by Japanese military and political interests.


What was the Manchukuo government?

In 1931 Japan invaded Manchuria. To cover up their invasion, the Japanese imposed a new "puppet" government (a government controlled by them) that was meant to approve their presence in Manchuria. The name of Manchuria changed to Manchukuo and therefore so did the name of the government. The League of Nations sent a commission to investigate whether or not the Manchurians really wanted the Japanese there called the Lytton Commission. They determined that, in fact, the Japanese were not welcome in Manchuria. This basically eventually lead to the Japanese withdrawing from the League of Nations.

What is the capital of manchuria?

Manchuria is the name of a region now mostly part of northeast China. It was fought over between China and Russia (1858), and between Japan and Russia (1900-1905, 1920-1925) and again from 1939 to 1945 when it was the Japanese territory of Manchukuo. Some islands were again involved in military actions during the Sino-Soviet conflict of 1969. Manchuria borders the Russian territory of Amur Oblast, Primorsky Krai,and the "Jewish Autonomous Oblast" which has now only a small Jewish minority. To the south, it borders North Korea -- the small Russian-Korean border now cuts off Manchuria from the Sea of Japan. Manchuria is now divided into four Chinese provinces: Inner Mongolia (capital Hohhot) Heilongjiang (capital Harbin) Jilin (capital Chanchung) Liaoning (capital Shenyang)
