The Yuan (Khan) Dynasty was a Mongol-led imperial dynasty of China and a successor state to the Mongol Empire after its division. In Chinese history the Yuan Dynasty followed the Song Dynasty and preceded the Ming Dynasty. It was established by Kublai (Emperor Shizu or Setsen Khan), the fifth khagan-emperor of the Mongol Empire from the Borjigin clan, and lasted from 1271 to 1368. It was the first dynasty founded by a non-Han ethnicity that ruled all of China, and in 1368, following the defeat of the Yuan forces by the Ming dynasty, the Genghisid rulers retreated to the Mongolian Plateau and continued to rule until 1635 when they surrendered to the Later Jin Dynasty (which eventually evolved into the Qing dynasty). Major cultural achievements during the Yuan Dynasty include the development of drama and the novel and the increased use of the written vernacular, and a widespread introduction of blue and white painted porcelain, as well as major stylistic changes to Chinese painting. They were also able to perfect lacquer making, and specific innovations such as purified saltpeter, printing techniques, porcelain, playing cards, and medical literature all had massive influences on European and Western Asian cultures. - Shipping Info
