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),[3][4] the capture of Gwangju by Kyŏn Hwŏn and subsequent establishment of the Later Baekje state at Jeonju (892),[5] and the proclamation of Later Baekje as a kingdom by Kyŏn Hwŏn (900).[6] Two events mark the end of the Later Three Kingdoms: the surrender of Gyeongsun, the last Silla monarch, to Goryeo in 935 and the conquest of Later Baekje by Goryeo in 936.[7][8]
