There has been much controversy regarding the history of Goguryeo based on Han rule, as it is a borderland between China and Korea. Goguryeo was traditionally viewed in China as a Korean kingdom,<ref>{{cite web |last1=Byington |first1=Mark |title=The War of Words Between South Korea and China Over An Ancient Kingdom: Why Both Sides Are Misguided |url=https://historynewsnetwork.org/article/7077 |website=History News Network |publisher=Columbian College of Arts & Sciences |accessdate=29 May 2019 |quote=Surrounding states, both in the Chinese mainland and in the Japanese archipelago, acknowledged that Koguryo was a state whose heritage belonged to the later peninsular states of Koryo (918-1392) and Choson (1392-1910).}}</ref>. However, the [[Northeast Project of the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences|''Serial Research Project on the History and Current Status of the Northeast Border Region'']] (also known as the ''Northeast Project''), started in February 2002 by the Center for the Study of Borderland History and Geography of the [[Chinese Academy of Social Sciences]] brought attention to Goguryeo, with the aim of construing it as a minority-ruled regime in ancient Chinese territory.<ref name = ahn>Ahn, Yonson. “Nationalisms and the Mobilisation of History in East Asia: The ‘War of History’ on Koguryŏ/Gaogouli.” Internationale Schulbuchforschung, vol. 27, no. 1, 2005, pp. 15–30.

This theory has come under criticism from Korean scholars, worldwide experts on Goguryeo and moderate Chinese scholars. <ref>{{cite news

Gaogouli County (Chinese: 高句驪縣; Goguryeo County or Koguryo County in Korean) was a county of the Chinese Han dynasty under the administration of Xuantu Commandery located in southern Manchuria and the northern Korean Peninsula.[1][2][3] It was established by the Han dynasty after its conquest of Gojoseon to keep the tribes of Goguryeo in check.[4] In 75 BC, Xuantu Commandery was forced to move its seat of power from Fort Okjeo to Gaogouli County due to Yemaek raids. From 75 BC to 12 AD, Goguryeo tribes were under administration of Gaogouli County and engaged in tributary relationship with the Han dynasty.[3] In 12 AD, Goguryeo rebelled against the Han dynasty and established its own kingdom, and in 105 AD, began attacking the Chinese commanderies of Xuantu and Liaodong.[3] Later, in the 4th century, the State of Goguryeo conquered Xuantu Commandery, along with the Liaodong and Lelang commanderies, ending Han rule over the Liaodong Peninsula and the Korean Peninsula.
