Liaoning, Province in Northeast China.

The territory extends over 148,000 square kilometers, including central plains, mountains in the east and west, and the Liaodong Peninsula reaching into the Yellow Sea.

The region received its current name in 1929 after being known as Fengtian, experiencing divisions and reunifications until reaching its present form in 1956.

The province incorporates multiple ethnic groups, with Han Chinese representing 84% of the population alongside Manchu, Mongol, Korean, and Hui communities.

The provincial railway network extends over 6,132 kilometers, connecting industrial centers like Shenyang, Dalian, and Anshan with coastal ports for efficient transportation.

The Jehol Biota fossil sites contain preserved specimens of ancient plants, insects, and dinosaurs, making them important locations for paleontological research.
