Jinzhou Province was one of the provinces of Manchukuo. It was established 1934, when the old Fengtian Province was split into the Andong Province, Fengtian Province and Jinzhou Province.[1] Jinzhou was mostly Chinese with Korean minorities within it too.[2] The Province mostly acted as a place for Japanese use of its resources and its use for invading China due to its closeness to the country.[3]
Jinzhou was created on December 1, 1934 and was mostly based on Jinzhou city. Mostly created as an easy way to govern the city. During the creation, many minorities were abused.[4]
The sign of it being dissolved is the Soviets starting to invade Manchuria, almost a week later in August 1945, Japan and Manchukuo would surrender and then Jinzhou would be dissolved.[5][6]
