Chol

Chol lies in the wooded hill country of northeastern Asia, within the broad region known as Manchuria. Forests, river lowlands and upland ridges supported hunting, gathering and timber use, and valleys led from the interior toward the Amur. Seasonal movement crossed terrain that later state borders would divide. The Qing state more often spoke of Guandong, the land east of the pass, or of the Three Provinces.
