Goryeo
Goryeo was a Korean kingdom founded by Wang Kŏn, with its capital at Kaesong. In 1337 King Chungsuk ruled as a marriage vassal of the Yuan.
In 1356 King Gongmin purged the pro-Mongol faction and recovered northern territory; Goryeo then repelled Red Turban invasions in 1359 and 1361. In 1388 General Yi Sŏnggye turned his army back from a campaign against the Ming and seized power. He founded Joseon in 1392, ending Goryeo.
