Kenkoku University in Hsiking, Manchuria edit

建国大学 (Kenkoku Daigaku) was a subject of a 2020 Japanese documentary, that aired on テレビ朝日 Asahi Television on November 15th 2020, titled "テレメンタリー2020「消えた大学 幻の満州の夢」" (Telementary 2020 - Vanished University - Manchuria's Phantom Dream), in which reporter, whose deceased grandfather was a graduate of Kenkoku University, was trying to uncover more information about it.

According to the documentary, Kenkoku University was a university that was founded in 1938 by the Kwantung Army and the Manchurian government in Hsinking City (currently Changchun City, China) as the "Supreme School of Manchuria." It is said that young elites from Japan, Korea, China, Mongolia and Russia were gathered at Kenkoku University under the idea of ​​"Five Races Under One Union" to nurture future leaders in Manchuria.

Emphasis was placed on "five races equality" and "academic freedom," and the students slept and ate together in the dormitory, creating bonds that transcend ethnic groups. However, in 1945, with the defeat of Japan, Kenkoky University was disbanded. (My translation from Japanese of the program description at https://www.tv-asahi.co.jp/pr/contents/20201114_11815.html)
