Parhae

Parhae

State established in the 8th century AD in northern Manchuria and northern Korea.

Founded by a former Korean general, Tae Cho-yang, it was considered a successor state to Koguryŏ, which had occupied much of the same territory before its conquest by Silla in 668. Like Silla, Parhae was a tributary state of Tang-dynasty China. It traded with the nomadic tribes of the north and with China and Japan. Parhae was conquered in 926 by the Khitan tribes almost 20 years after their creation of the Liao dynasty on China's northern borders.

also spelled  Palhae , Chinese (Pinyin)  Bohai  or  (Wade-Giles romanization)  Po-hai 

      state established in the 8th century among the Tungusic-speaking peoples of northern Manchuria (now Northeast China) and northern Korea by a former Korean general, Tae Cho-yang. The ruling class consisted largely of the former aristocrats of Koguryŏ, which had occupied most of northern Korea and Manchuria before it was conquered by the state of Silla in 668. Parhae was considered the successor state to Koguryŏ.

      Parhae, like Silla, became a tributary state of the Chinese Tang dynasty (618–907) and was prevented by the Tang from developing friendly relations with Silla. Its trade and cultural relations were largely with the nomadic tribes of the north and with Japan and China. Parhae appears to have enjoyed high prosperity; indeed, in its heyday it was referred to in Korea as Haedong-songguk, “Prosperous Country of the East.” The territory at this time extended southward from the Sungari (Songhua) and Amur rivers in northern Manchuria to the northern half of Korea.

      Parhae bore a strong cultural resemblance to Koguryŏ. The surviving Buddhist images and stone lanterns suggest that Buddhism played a predominant role in the life of the Parhae people. The government administration was modeled after the Tang bureaucracy.

      Parhae's rule was ended in 926 when it was conquered by the Khitan tribes of Central Asia, who had established the Liao dynasty (907–1125) on China's northern borders.
