Wikipedia articles
1. Genghis Khan, born with the name Temujin, was the founder, Khan (ruler) and Khagan (emperor) of the Mongol Empire, the largest contiguous empire in history.

2. The Mongol Emperor Kublai Khan is known for completing the Conquest of China.

3. Kublai Khan

4.*"Description of the World" was the Old French title, and the English translation was known as "The Travels of Marco Polo."

5.Venice

6. Batu

7. He was put in prison after fighting against Genoa for a short time, then he became a wealthy merchant, along with his father and uncles , and he and, later on, his children married into noble families.

8. He was tolerant of all religions: "In 1264, Nicolò and Maffio joined up with an embassy sent by the Ilkhan Hulagu to his brother Kublai Khan. In 1266, they reached the seat of the Kublai Khan at Dadu, present day Beijing, China.
In his book, *"Il Milione", Marco explains how Kublai Khan officially received the Polos and sent them back with a Mongol named Koeketei as an ambassador to the Pope. They brought with them a letter from the Khan requesting 100 educated people to come and teach Christianity and Western customs to his people and oil from the lamp of the Holy Sepulcher." Religions practiced there were: Buddhism, Christianity , Islam and Tengriism

9. Cathay

10. They had no unity of culture: The Mongols were a pastoral and tribal people that did not really seem to be of any consequence to neighboring peoples. The Mongols were in fact a group of disunified tribes that would gather regularly during annual migrations; although they elected chiefs over the tribes at these meetings, they never unified into a single people.
The Yuan was the shortest lived of the major dynasties–the Beijing Khans lost legitimacy among the Mongols still in Mongolia who thought they had become too Chinese, and the Chinese never accepted the Yuan as a legitimate dynasty but regarded them rather as bandits, or at best an occupying army. The failure to learn Chinese and integrate themselves into Chinese culture greatly undermined the Mongol rulers.
As with all Chinese dynasties, nature conspired in the downfall; the Yellow River changed course and flooded irrigation canals and so brought on massive famine in the 1340's. The decline of the Yuan coincided with similar declines in all the other Khanates throughout Asia. Finally, a peasant, Chu Yuan-chang, led a rebel army against the Yuan. He had lost most of his family in the famine, and had spent part of his life as a monk and then as a bandit leader. He took Beijing in 1368 and the Yuan emperor fled to Shangtu. When he drove the Yuan from Shangtu back to Mongolia, he declared himself the founder of a new dynasty: the Ming (1369-1644).
