Solution

The correct option is D Kublai Khan
  • Kublai Khan was a Mongolian leader who made an impact on China, not only through conquest but also by ruling successfully. He was the greatest of the Mongol emperors after Genghis Khan and founder of the Yuan Dynasty in China.
  • In 1275, Marco Polo, a Venetian explorer, visited China and a relationship of trust was formed between the two. Polo’s reports on the culture of China were new to Western Europeans and sparked further interest in eastern world exploration.
