In the mid-17th century, the Amur Valley became the scene of hostilities between the Russian Cossacks, trying to expand into the region and to collect tribute from the natives, and the rising Manchu Qing Dynasty, intent on securing the region for itself.

It is thought by a number of Russian linguists and historians that the Ducher people encountered by Russian explorers on the middle Amur and lower Sungari in the early 1650s ( who were evacuated by the Qing authorities further south a few years later ) were the descendants of the Amur Jurchens, and that the word " Ducher " itself is simply a variation of jušen.

There is nothing much near the site of Blagoveshchensk itself ( at the confluence of the Saghalien ( Amur ) River and the Tchikiri ( Zeya ) River )

It flows into the Zeya ( itself a tributary of the Amur ) between Svobodny and Blagoveshchensk.

It is usually thought that the first such camp in the general area of today's Khabarovsk was the fortified winter camp named Achansk () or Achansky gorodok (), built by the Cossacks of Yerofey Khabarov in September 1651 after they had sailed to the area from the upper Amur.

Polevoy, who believed that Khabarov's Achansk was located in the Nanai village later known as Odzhal-Bolon (), located on the left bank of the Amur, closer to Amursk than to Khabarovsk.

Another large group of Cossacks, led by Onufriy Stepanov, appeared in the area soon after Khabarov's departure from the Amur, and was active there until its destruction in 1658.

All of the middle and lower Amur region was nominally part of the Jilin Province, run first out of Ninguta and later out of Jilin City.

In 1916, Khabarovsk Bridge across the Amur was completed, allowing Trans-Siberian trains to cross the river without using ferries ( or temporary rail tracks over the frozen river in winter ).

It was the main Russian base on the Pacific coast from about 1650 to 1860, but lost its importance after the Amur Annexation in 1860.

In 1411, a smaller fleet, built in Jilin and commanded by another eunuch Yishiha, who was a Jurchen, sailed down the Sungari and Amur Rivers.

The accomplished fact was recognized by China in 1858 by the Treaty of Aigun, recognized the Amur River as the boundary between Russia and Qing Empire, and granted Russia free access to the Pacific Ocean.

In April 1920, the Far Eastern Republic, with its capital in Chita, was formed from Amur, Transbaikal, Kamchatka, Sakhalin, and Primorye regions as a democratic " buffer " state in order to avoid war with Japan.

In 1948, Amur Oblast was finally separated from Khabarovsk Territory and became an independent region of the RSFSR.

Archaeologist Junko Habu claims that " The majority of Japanese scholars believed, and still believe, that pottery production was first invented in mainland Asia and subsequently introduced into the Japanese archipelago ," and explains that " A series of excavations in the Amur River Basin in the 1980s and 1990s revealed that pottery in this region may be as old as, if not older than, Fukui Cave pottery ", which dates to around 10, 700 and was found in 1960.

The lands near the confluence of the Ussuri and the Amur Rivers, where today's Khabarovsk stands, have been populated by many centuries by Tungusic people, probably related to the Jurchens of the past and / or the Nanais of the present day.

A number of locations, both upstream and downstream of today's Khabarovsk, have been proposed since Richard Maack, one of the first Russian scholars to visit the region, identified Achansk in 1859 with the ruins on Cape Kyrma, which is located on the southern ( Chinese ) shore of the Amur, upstream of Khabarovsk.

According to them, the indigenous Nanai people living on the Ussury and on the Amur down to the mouth of the Dondon River ( i. e., in the region including the site of the future Khabarovsk ) were known to the Chinese as Yupi Dazi (" Fishskin Tartars ")

The Jewish Autonomous Oblast (, Yevreyskaya avtonomnaya oblast ;, yidishe avtonome gegnt ) is a federal subject of Russia ( an autonomous oblast ) situated in the Russian Far East, bordering with Khabarovsk Krai and Amur Oblast of Russia and Heilongjiang province of China.

The railway construction finished in October 1916 with the opening of the Khabarovsk Bridge across the Amur at Khabarovsk.

Khabarovsk Krai shares its borders with Magadan Oblast in the north, with the Sakha Republic and Amur Oblast in the west, with the Jewish Autonomous Oblast, China, and Primorsky Krai in the south, and is limited by the Sea of Okhotsk in the east.

The capital city, Khabarovsk, is at the junction of the Amur River and the Trans-Siberian railway.
