Three Gojoseon kingdoms are described in some alternative history texts, although not accepted by mainstream historians.
In mainstream Korean history, Gojoseon (2333 BCE - 108 BCE) was the first state of Korea that was established around southern Manchuria and northern Korean peninsula. The Samhan (the three confederacies Mahan, Byeonhan, and Jinhan) existed in central and southern Korean Peninsula, from around the time of Gojoseon's fall until fully absorbed by the Three Kingdoms of Korea around the 4th century CE.
The Gyuwon Sahwa and the controversial Hwandan Gogi and Joseon Sangosa describe Gojoseon as consisting of Majoseon, Jinjoseon and Beonjoseon, which were also called as Mahan, Jinhan and Beonhan, respectively. The three confederacies of Gojoseon are thus called Samjoseon (Three Joseon) to distinguish it from the later Samhan (Three Han).
Territory of Three Confederacies
Majoseon was located at the Korean peninsula, Jinjoseon was located at Manchuria, and Beojoseon was located at the around of Liaoning. The Dangun 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 China. Actually, Dangun allowed Gija and Wiman to rule over the Beonjoseon because they are originally Dongyi.
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.
Jinjoseon
Asadal was a captial city of Jinjoseon governed by Dangun, and the other two Joseons such as Majoseon and Beonjoseon are governed by the vice Danguns.
Beonjoseon
The Dangun throne Chidunam (치두남, 蚩頭男) as a vice Dangun of Beonjoseon. Its capital city was Heomdok (험독, 險瀆), but it is also called Wanggeomseong (왕검성, 王儉城). The Chidunam was a descendant of the Chiu (치우, 蚩尤).
Majoseon
Dangun throned the Woongbaekda (웅백다, 熊伯多) as a Vice Dangun of Majoseon. Its capital city was Daljiguk (달지국, 達支國), or it is also called as Baek-agang (백아강, 白牙江).
