While the contemporary city of Dongxia operates under these linguistic parameters, the historical name Dongxia—also referred to as Eastern Xia, Dongzhen, or Dazhen—carries significant historical weight tied to Manchuria and Northeast China.

How does historical movement connect to the name Dongxia?

The historical entity known as Dongxia was a short-lived kingdom established in 1215 during the Mongol conquest of the Jin dynasty. Founded by the Jurchen warlord Puxian Wannu after he rebelled against the waning Jin dynasty, the historical regime experienced substantial political and physical movement across its territory. Initially, Puxian Wannu founded the dynasty in Dongjing, located in Liaoyang, with the support of the Mongols. After rebelling against the Mongol Empire in 1217 and killing the Mongolian resident commissioners, the leadership relocated the capital to Nanjing, situated near Yanji in the Jilin province at the modern-day Mopancun Fortress.

How did the historical kingdom conclude?

The movement of military forces eventually brought an end to the historical realm when Ögedei Khan dispatched Güyük to conquer the territory in 1233. Puxian Wannu was captured and killed that same year, marking the official termination of the kingdom before its former territories were later administered by the Liaoyang province of the Yuan dynasty. Further details regarding this history are documented in the Eastern Xia historical record.
