Manchuria (Manchuria) - Manshu (English spelling) Mǎn zhōu

Japanese: 満州(満洲) - まんしゅう(英語表記)Mǎn zhōu
Manchuria (Manchuria) - Manshu (English spelling) Mǎn zhōu
It originally came from the Manchu people, who ruled China during the Qing dynasty, abandoning their traditional tribal title of Jurchen and renaming themselves Manchuria. By extension, northeastern China, the ancestral homeland of the Manchu people, is called Manchuria in Japan, and Manchuria in other countries outside of China. In particular, Japan gave the name Manchukuo to the puppet government it created in this region. In China, this region is called Tohoku, and not Manchuria. The main reason for this is that it was named by the invaders. [Kono Michihiro]

Japanese:
本来は清代に中国を支配していた満州族が旧来の女真という族称を廃して,満洲と改称したことに由来する。転じて,満州族の祖宗の地である中国東北部のことを日本では満州と呼び,中国以外の国々はマンチュリアManchuriaと呼んできた。ことに日本はこの地域に作った傀儡(かいらい)政権に満州国の名をつけた。中国ではこの地区のことを東北と呼び,満州とは呼ばない。侵略者による呼称であることが大きな理由である。【河野 通博】
