'''Manchukuo''' ([[Pinyin]]: ''Manzhouguo'') is the Japanese name of [[Manchuria]] (the region north of China) and refers to Japanese control of the region in the 20th century, especially 1931-45 when a Japanese puppet state called Manchukuo was in operation. The last [[Qing]] emperor of China, Aisin Gioro Puyi (1905–67), who was ousted from power in China by the [[1911 Revolution]] and who had sought sanctuary with the Japanese in 1924, was installed as the 'Chief Executive' of the puppet state, and on 1 March 1934 was declared Emperor of Manchukuo. The state collapsed under the impact of the [[Soviet]] Invasion of August 1945 and the end of the surrender of Japanese forces. The United States rejected Japanese control and it became an issue that led to war between the U.S. and Japan in 1941. In 1946 the region came under the control of China.
