King Gyeongmyeong
Gyeongmyeong (860 – August 924), personal name Pak Sŭn-gyŏng, was the 54th ruler of the Korean kingdom of Silla. He was the eldest son of King Sindeok and Princess Uiseong. He ruled during the Later Three Kingdoms period, when much of his country's former domain was divided between Later Baekje and Taebong. In 918, Wang Kŏn overthrew Kung Ye, who had been the ruler of Taebong, and established Goryeo. Gyeongmyeong joined forces with him in 920, and their allied armies were able to repel a Later Baekje assault on Daeya Castle. However, after this many border commanders chose to desert Silla in favor of Goryeo, so Gyeongmyeong was left no better off than before. King Gyeongmyeong sought to get aid from Later Tang, and sent missions bearing tribute, but was unsuccessful. After his death in 924, King Gyeongmyeong was buried to the north of Hwangboksa temple and the throne was passed to his younger brother, King Gyeongae of Silla. Family Parents *Father: Sindeok of ...

Silla (; Old Korean: wikt:徐羅伐#Old Korean, 徐羅伐, Yale romanization of Korean, Yale: Syerapel, Revised Romanization of Korean, RR: ''Seorabeol''; International Phonetic Alphabet, IPA: ) was a Korean kingdom that existed between 57 BCE – 935 CE and was located on the southern and central parts of the Korea, Korean Peninsula. Silla, along with Paekje and Koguryeo, formed the Three Kingdoms of Korea. Silla had the lowest population of the three, approximately 850,000 people (170,000 households), significantly smaller than those of Paekje (3,800,000 people) and Koguryeo (3,500,000 people). Its foundation can be traced back to the semi-mythological figure of Hyeokgeose of Silla (Old Korean: *pulkunae, "light of the world"), of the Park (Korean surname), Park clan.

Later Three Kingdoms Of Korea
The Later Three Kingdoms period (; c. 890s – 936 AD) of ancient Korea saw a partial revival of the old three kingdoms which had dominated the peninsula from the 1st century BC to the 7th century. After the Unified Silla kingdom had ruled Korea alone from 668, it slowly began to decline and the power vacuum this led to several rebellious states rising up and taking on the old historical names of Korea's ancient kingdoms. A messy period of alliances and in-fighting followed, but one state would once again establish a dominant position—Goryeo, itself named in homage to the earlier northern Goguryeo kingdom—and form a unified Korean state and a dynasty which would last almost 500 years. Dates The start and end dates of the Later Three Kingdoms are poorly defined and differ across sources. Key events used as starting dates include the first major rebellions against Unified Silla (889), the capture of Gwangju by Kyŏn Hwŏn and subsequent establishment of the Later Baekje stat ...

Husabeol
Husabeol or Later Sabeol () was a short-lived state during the Later Three Kingdoms of Korea, even though it is not included among the three. It was officially founded by the Silla prince Park Eonchang ( 朴彦昌 / 박언창; son of Gyeongmyeong of Silla) in 919, and fell to Kyŏn Hwŏn's Hubaekje army in 927. Its capital was at Sangju, in present-day North Gyeongsang province. Background At the end of the Silla Dynasty, the area around Sabeol became an area for struggle with Later Baekje. King Gyeongmyeong of Silla appointed his son Eonchang as the commander of the Sillan forces around Sabeol, and the prince strengthened his military to fight against the Later Baekje army. However, the national power of Silla rapidly weakened and the surrounding regions around Sabeol fell and made it isolated. Eonchang established the independent state of Sabeol in 918 AD and fought against Later Baekje for nearly ten years. Fall After a decade of resistance, the armies of Later Baekje ...
