Note: "Manchuria is an exonym for several large overlapping historical and geographic regions in Northeast Asia. Depending on the context, it may refer to:

Greater Manchuria, the area of northeast Asia which served as the homeland of the Jurchens who became the Manchus, now divided between China (Northeast China, or "Inner Manchuria") and Russia (Outer Northeast China, or "Outer Manchuria");[citation needed]the Later Jin (1616–1636), the Manchu state which became the Qing Empire;the northeastern provinces of the Qing Empire initially reserved for use by the Manchu people;Manchukuo (1932–1945), the puppet state of Imperial Japan intended as a Manchu nation-state; or(most often) Northeast China, the three provinces of Heilongjiang, Jilin, and Liaoning in China.First used in the 17th century by the Japanese, it remains a common term elsewhere but is deprecated within China, where it is associated with ethnic chauvinism and Japanese imperialism. Northeast China is now predominantly Han Chinese and is considered the homeland of several groups besides the Manchus, including the Koreans, the Xianbei, the Shiwei, and the Khitans. The area is also home to many Mongols." - (en.wikipedia.org 23.09.2020)
