Northeast
China
is a
geographical
region
of
China.
It
is
separated
from
Russia
largely
by
the
Amur,
Argun,
and
Ussuri
rivers,
from
North
Korea
by
the
Yalu
and
Tumen
rivers,
and
from
the
Inner
Mongolian
Autonomous
Region
by
the
Greater
Khingan
Range.
The
heartland
of
the
region
is
the
Northeast
China
Plain. |

Northeast
China
is
defined
by
the
government
of
the
People's
Republic
of
China
to
include
the
three
northeastern
provinces
of
Heilongjiang,
Jilin
and
Liaoning
and,
thus,
the
region
is
sometimes
called
the
Three
Northeast
Provinces.
Some
people
in
parts
of
Inner
Mongolia
still
call
themselves
Northeasterners.
It
is
generally
coterminous
with
some
definitions
of
the
historical
region
of
Manchuria
and
is
commonly
referred
to
in
English
as
such.
It
is
also
sometimes
referred
to
as
Inner
Manchuria
in
contrast
with
Outer
Manchuria,
provinces
lost
to
the
Russian
Empire,
during
the
Qing
Dynasty. |
