The kanji 遼 is a 形声文字 (keisei moji), a phono-semantic compound. The left side is a radical called 辶 (しんにょう - shinnyō), which means "road" or "movement." The right side is 㐱 (shin), which is a phonetic component, representing the sound "ryō." Therefore, the character was originally made to be the name of a region in China.
