Unit 8

This unit is about Great Explores.
Marco Polo's trip had started more than 9000 kilometers away in Venis when he was just a teenager.
On this second trip the Polos would stay for 17 years.
He was able to learn and experience many things that were new to Europeans.
He admired the Khan's recentry completed new capital. Daidu, whose streets were "so straight and so broad".
Kublai Khan made use of a fast and simple message system.
Horse riders spread every 40 kilometers allowed messages to cover 500 kilometers a day.
I was very suprised that.
