Features: They came from the vast deserts, drinking mare's milk and resting in yurts when weary. Descendants of Genghis Khan, their might was unstoppable where the Great Khan's blade pointed. They marched south into the Central Plains, westward into foreign lands, their royal banners reaching as far as Eastern Europe. The refined Chinese became their subjects, while proud peoples bowed at their feet. Ancient, blocked roads burst open with thunder, merchants gathered in the capital; devout monks arrived gracefully, building temples in all directions; and envoys from all nations came with reverence, dizzying under the dazzling splendor of the prosperous city. All marveled, "How majestic is the Creative Power!" This book, rich in illustrations and diverse in style, vividly recreates China's long and glorious history and civilization through over a thousand carefully selected historical stories. The book presents a clear historical narrative, details specific historical facts, uses concise and lively language, and is accompanied by abundant illustrations, making it a high-quality historical knowledge read.
