Generally, Taejodae allowed the conquered tribes to retain their chieftains, but required them to report to governors who were related to Goguryeo's royal line; tribes under Goguryeo's jurisdiction were expected to provide heavy tribute.
Generelt tillod Taejodae de erobrede stammer at bevare deres høvdinge, men krævede dem til at rapportere til guvernører, der var relateret til Goguryeo kongelige linje; stammer under Goguryeos jurisdiktion forventedes at give betydelige tributter.
