Features: This book provides a comprehensive and systematic introduction to the life of Kublai Khan. It is well-known that Genghis Khan swept across Eurasia with the Mongol cavalry and established the Mongol Empire. However, how to govern and manage a region with advanced culture and economy was a question that Genghis Khan did not have time to answer. Kublai Khan basically resolved this issue. With the help of a group of Mongol and Han officials, he established the era name and reformed the system according to Han law. The series of political, economic, military, and cultural policies he formulated and implemented not only laid the foundation for the hundred-year reign of the Yuan Dynasty but also provided the later Qing Dynasty with extremely valuable experience. As the author of this book states: Genghis Khan shocked the world with his military conquests, while Kublai Khan was renowned for his governance.
