Goguryeo
Goguryeo (sometimes spelled Koguryŏ), later renamed Goryeo (Koryŏ) was an ancient Korean country in East Asia.
History
In 37 BC, Goguryeo became independent from Buyeo.
In the chaos following the fall of the Han Dynasty, the former commanderies of the dynasty had broken free of control and were now ruled by various independent warlords. Surrounded by these aggressive commanderies, Goguryeo moved to improve relations with the newly created dynasty of
Cao Wei in China and sent tribute in 220. In 238, Goguryeo entered into a formal alliance with Wei to destroy the
Liaodong commandery.
But when Liaodong was finally ansuchlessed by Wei, Goguryeo's relations with him fell apart. Goguryeo attacked Wei from the western edges of Liaodong which incited a counterattack from Wei in 244. Thus, Goguryeo initiated the Goguryeo-Wei War in 242, trying to cut off Chinese access to territories in Korea by attempting to take a Chinese fort. However, the Wei state responded by invading and defeated Goguryeo, and his capital
Hwando plus the tributary system between Goguryeo and other Koreanballs was destroyed, and the king fled.
In 259, Wei invaded again but was defeated by Goguryeo, and 8000 Wei soldiers were beheaded.
In the late 300s, Goguryeo has conquered much of Manchuria, some of
Siberia, and the northern part of the Korean Peninsula.
In 668, Goguryeo got killed by Silla and
China.
