👉 East Korea Bay in the context of Silla–Tang War

The Silla–Tang War (670–676) occurred between the Silla kingdom of Korea (joined by Goguryeo and Baekje loyalists) and the Tang dynasty of China. It began in the geopolitical context immediately following the conquest of Goguryeo and Baekje by the joint forces of Silla and Tang.

Due to the internal political situation in both Silla and Tang, the conflict ended in a truce and Tang withdrawal from the Korean Peninsula south of the Taedong River. The subsequent territorial line between Tang and Unified Silla extended from the mouth of the Taedong River in the west to the East Korea Bay.

East Korea Bay in the context of Rivers of Korea

The Korean peninsula is mainly mountainous along its east coast, so most of its river water flows west, emptying into the Yellow Sea. Some of these rivers flow through lakes en route to the coast, but these are all artificial reservoirs, as there are no natural lakes on the Korean mainland. A few rivers head south, emptying into the Korea Strait and some more minor rivers flow east to the East Korea Bay, though these are usually little more than streams in comparison. In the list below, tributaries are listed under the river into which they flow and then in upstream order. They are listed counterclockwise, from the Amnok to the Duman.
