1390-1409 Zheng He Voyages to India & Africa



This twenty year period covers the reign of Richard II who died in 1399 and was succeeded by Henry IV.

During this period there were only two wars in the world -- the 1405-1427 Dei Viet Independence War and the 1409-1410 Teutonic-Polish War -- 15 years of peace and safety.

What was absolutely fantastic about this period was the adventures of Zheng He, admiral of the imperial Ming navy, China -- and a Muslim eunoch -- who, in 1405, started the first of 7 voyages to India and E Africa via Vietnam and Indonesia.
