      city, northwestern Liaoning sheng (province), northeastern China. It is located near the border with the Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region and serves as the administrative centre for several surrounding districts and counties. This area, located in the south-central part of Northeast China ( Manchuria), was inhabited by both Han Chinese and non-Chinese minority peoples (mainly Mongolians); moreover, the region has farming and grazing regions adjoining one another in complicated patterns. During the Qing dynasty (1644–1911/12), until the end of the 19th century, the border area remained a pasture ground reserved for the Mongolians. It was legally opened to Han Chinese colonization in 1896, although many settlers had already established themselves there sometime before. Fuxin became a market centre on the border between the agricultural zone occupied by Chinese peasants and the pastoral zone inhabited by the Mongolians.

      The Fuxin region boasts rich coal resources, which were first exploited during Qing times under the reign of the Daoguang emperor (1820–50). During the Japanese occupation of Manchuria (1931–45), coal mining expanded. In the early 1950s the mines were reconstructed and reequipped with extensive Soviet aid. The coal fuels a large thermal generating plant, also constructed with Soviet aid in the mid-1950s, that is linked to the regional power-grid system. The surrounding areas also have large reserves of iron ore. Coal mining and power generation continue to be the city's economic mainstays, although metallurgical, electronics, and machine-making industries also have developed there. The city is easily accessible by rail and highway. Notable among Fuxin's institutions of higher education is Liaoning Technical University (founded 1958). Pop. (2002 est.) 690,355.
