Nangnang

 or Lelang or Lo-lang

Colony of China in northern Korea, established during the Han dynasty (206 BC–AD 220). It was located near modern-day P'yongyang, and from there the Chinese incorporated southern Korea and parts of Japan into their sphere of influence. The Chinese maintained a commandery there for 400 years. Its presence introduced the local people to wet-rice cultivation and iron and high-fired ceramic technology.
