__**The Rise of Goguryeo**__
The Goguryeo Kingdom began as small in the Zolbon area in the Amnokhang valley. It was founded by King Chumo or Gojumong (who later went by King Dongmyeong of Goguryeo), who left Buyeo only to find it increasingly difficult to afford a decent palace or fund grain exporting. Also, his puny state was surrounded by larger, more powerful nations, like Buyeo, Biryu, and Seonbi. It was very difficult for Gojumong to start anew.
