The history of the Khitans dates back to the 4th century. The Khitan people dominated much of Mongolia, and modern Manchuria (Northeast China) by the 10th century under the Liao Dynasty, and eventually collapsed by 1125 (or 1211). From Xianbei origins, they were part of the Kumo Xi tribe until 388, when the Kumo Xi-Khitan tribal grouping was roundly defeated by the newly established Northern Wei, allowing the Khitan to resume their own tribe and entity, and beginning the Khitan written history. From the 5th to the 8th centuries, they were dominated by the steppe power to their West, the Turks, then the Uyghurs. The Chinese also came from the south. In some cases under Korean domination, according to the balance of power at any given time. Under this triple domination and oppression, the Khitan started to show growing power and independence. Their rise was slow compared to other cases. Slow because it was frequently crushed by its neighbouring powers, each using the Khitan warriors when needed, but each ready to crush them when the Khitan rose too much and became powerful.
