his impact, legacy, and the political role he left on the Chinese people.
This should be a 5 page Analytical paper (in Chicago style formatting with references) explaining the rise and impact of the Ming Dynasty with it’s founding emperor Hongwu rising to power. Compare and contrast the differences between both the Ming Dynasty and the previous Mongol-Yuan Dynasty. Why were they different?
Was Hongwu a good emperor to lead a new dynasty to power? What were some of the differences in values during the previous Yuan Dynasty verses the Ming Dynasty, who was a new empire with the predominant power now throughout Asia? Are Chinese values and virtues similar in today’s society as they were during the Ming Dynasty, and if so, why?
