The Worlds of the 15th Century AP World History Notes Chapter 13

Herding Peoples Nomadic pastoral peoples Had more direct and dramatic contact with larger civilizations than agricultural village societies or hunter-gatherers Where?  Central Asia/the steppe, parts of Africa Arguably the most significant = the Mongols

Timur Turkic warrior who tried to restore the Mongol Empire in the late 14th & early 15th centuries Devastation once again to Russia, Persia, and India Died (in 1405) while preparing an invasion of China Empire didn’t last  conflict among his successors Last great military success of Central Asian nomads

Ming China (1368-1644) Rebuilt strong central government Reinstated civil service examinations and made them even harder Increase in food and trade production Increase in population

Ming China Capital = Beijing Emperor Yongle built Forbidden City = magnificent imperial residence Also built Temple of Heaven = where rulers performed Confucianrituals to ensure the well-being of Chinese society

Ming China Focus on repairing the damage caused by Mongol rule Restored millions of acres of cultivation Rebuilt: canals, reservoirs, and irrigation systems Planted millions of trees to reforest China

Chinese Exploration China undertook large and impressive maritime expeditions Largest = launched in 1405 and led by Zheng He 300 ships; 27,000 crew members; variety of different people on board He made 7 voyages between 1405 and 1433

Voyages of Zheng He

Chinese Exploration Goals of Chinese exploration: Enroll distant peoples and states in the Chinese tribute system Bring back exotic goods from foreign lands (ex: zebras, giraffes, etc.) Establish Chinese power and prestige in the Indian Ocean Exert Chinese control over foreign trade

Chinese Exploration Abrupt and deliberate end to Chinese exploration in 1433 WHY? Death of Emperor Yongle = chief supporter Many officials saw expeditions as a waste of money and resources Believed focus should be on real threat: nomads to the north Thought people should come to Chinese…not other way around!
