Gojoseon (고조선, B.C. 2333- 108) is the first state of Korea that was established around Manchuria and Korean peninsula, and is a united kingdom composed of three confederacies of Gojoseon such as Majoseon (마조선), Jinjoseon (진조선) and Beonjoseon(번조선). Three confederacy is also called as Mahan, Jinhan and Beonhan. However, they must be discriminated from Samhan, because Samhan is established after the destruction of Gojoseon. So, three confederacies of Gojoseon is so called the SamJoseon or the prior Samhan in this context. The posterior Samhan was established in Korean peninsula after Gojoseon was destroyed for remembrance of three confederacies of Gojoseon.

Majoseon was located at the Korean peninsula, Jinjoseon was located at Manchuria, and Beojoseon was located at the around of Liaoning. The Dangun (단군) governed Jinjoseon by himself, and the other two Gojoseons such as Majoseon and Beonjoseon are allowed to be governed by vice Danguns (부단군). Because Bejoseon is neighborhood of China, Chinese history usually calls Gojoseon or simplyh Joseon when they are refer to Beonjoseon. In addition, they also called Jin when they refer to Jinjoseon. Therefore, Gija and Wiman are caused from the misunderstanding of three confederacy of Gojoseon by ]. Actually, Dangun allowed Gija and Wiman to rule over the Beonjoseon because they are originally dong-i (동이).

Gojoseon is developed based on the bronze ware, and continue to the Iron Age. The territory of three Gojoseons can be known by their unique style bronze sword. i.e., mandolin-shaped dagger (비파형동검, 琵琶形銅劍). The mandolin-shape dagger is found in around Liaoning, Manchuria and Korean peninsula. It proves that three Gojoseons territory at least cover the area in the map. Furthermore, the shape of the mandolin-shape dagger of Gojoseon are very different from those found in China. In addition, the composition of bronze of Gojoseon contains much more tin than that of China. These prove that the culture of bronze of Gojoseon are very different from Chinese bronze ware so that they are not affected by Chinese bronze culture.
