Manchuria is a historical region located in Northeast Asia, which is now mostly part of China's northeastern provinces of Jilin, Liaoning and Heilongjiang. It was the homeland of the Manchu people who established the Qing dynasty, and has been a strategically important area throughout history due to its vast natural resources. The region is often known for the conflicts and wars that took place there in the 20th century, including the Russo-Japanese War and the Manchurian Crisis. It is also known for the puppet state established by Japan known as Manchukuo during the Second World War.

Manchuria
Manchuria is a historical name given to a large geographic region in northeast Asia. Depending on the definition of its extent, Manchuria usually falls entirely within China, or is sometimes divided between China and Russia. The region is now usually referred to as Northeast China in China, although "Manchuria" is widely used outside of China to denote the geographical and historical region. This region is the traditional homeland of the Xianbei, Khitan, and Jurchen peoples, who built several states historically. The region is also the home of the Manchus, after whom Manchuria is named.
