Liaoning
Liaoning province, China.
Liaoning was reestablished as a single province in 1954, following a period from 1947 to 1954 during which the territory had been divided into the provinces of Liaoxi and Liaodong. The province subsequently achieved its present-day form in 1956, when a portion of the former province of Jehol (Rehe) was partitioned and added to its territory.1
