Gungnae City

In 82 BC, the Goguryeo people drive out the armies of the Han commanderies of Lintun and Zhenfan.

According to the History of the Three Kingdoms, It was in present-day Huanren County in Liaoning Province where King Dongmyeing of Goguryeo first set up capital in 37 BC. In 3rd AD, the capital was moved to Gungnae city.

Gungnae City is located in the urban section of Ji' an City, Jilin Province. It was the political, economic and cultural center for the early and middle periods of ancient Kogury regime in Northeast China.

The 19th ruler of Gungnae City was Gwanggaeto of Goguryeo. Goguryeo’s primary task was to secure an independent territory by eliminating the remaining commanders in southern Manchuria and the north-central region of the Korean Peninsula.
