Zhang’s position was always contingent, however, on a host of factors, not least of which was an uneasy symbiosis with Japanese imperialism.

Located at the foot of Tiebei Mountain, 30 km east of Fushun, this tomb was built by Zhang Xueliang for his father and Manchurian warlord Zhang Zuolin (1873-1928).
