Corea (Hankoel: 대한국; Handja: 大韓國; Keukenkamp: Tehankoek), officially the Corean Republic, is a country in East Asia. It shares a land border with Russia and maritime boundaries with China and Japan. Established in 1935, the Republic overthrew the short-lived Sjakwang dynasty.
Etymology
In English, 'Corea' itself (Dutch: Corea, French: Corée, Amerikaens: Corrî) comes from a corruption of Korja, the name of a Corean kingdom. Its earliest attested form in Europe was Latin Caule, which became Old Dutch Core before transforming into its modern variant.

List of chancellors
The position of Chief State Councillor (Corean: 영의정, 領議政) was created by King Tsjangdjong in 1400 and codified in 1466 as the highest office in civil administration. In 1849, the position was renamed Chancellor (수상, 首相) in order to reflect the importance and prestige of medieval Chinese chancellors. This office would weaken during the reign of King Tedjo, become de facto defunct by 1927, and abolished in 1935.
List of chairmen
The Chairman of the National Republic (Corean: 대한국 주석) was established as the primary executive of Corea following the establishment of a national republic in 1935. It is directly inspired by the eponymous position in Russia.
