Marco Polo

Episode 1788 Published 9 months, 3 weeks ago
Description

In the 13th century, the Republic of Venice was one of the leading merchant empires in Europe.

The merchants from Venice traveled far and wide in pursuit of profit. A few of them, however, traveled very far. 

A small group of men from the same family made the extremely long and dangerous voyage to China during the reign of the Mongol Empire. 

The result was a more detailed description of China than had ever been known before in the West.
