The order of Social Class, people with certain jobs where considered lower class such as physicians astronomers, military forces, engineers, musicians. These jobs were considered lower payed jobs, because no one wanted to hire anyone in these careers because the only way you could have money and be considered high class was if you worked for the government. Which made these jobs seem lower payed jobs, and surprisingly some of the careers considered lower class are now considered very well payed jobs. It was clear to the Chinese that the Mongolians favored other foreigners then having a Chinese person in a good upper class, because of the fear of the Chinese people gaining to much power which encouraged the Mongols to hire foreigners to work as government officials and such.<br />

</div><div class="MsoNormal"> <i>Yuan Dynasty magnetic compass above</i></div><div class="MsoNormal"><br />
</div><div class="MsoNormal"><br />
</div><div class="MsoNormal">One of the biggest inventions during the Yuan Dynasty was the magnetic compass. It was made out of two parts a metal spoon and a magnetic land stone with a bronze square plate at the bottom. This was one of the most important inventions in China because this helped anybody and everybody get around, so they knew in what direction they were going in. This compass works the same way as all other compasses, the spoon is attracted to the magnetic force inside the earth (the north pole), therefore the spoon would face north and travelers knew where they were headed. Once travelers from the Yuan Dynasty went on voyages and visted other nations, they showed other nations they’re creation the compass, the compass became more popular and later renovated into more modern versions used today. </div><div class="MsoNormal"><br />

<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent: 0.5in;">During the Yuan Dynasty, they had a variety of different religions, surprisingly no one was forced to follow a specific religion. But they did favor other religions more than others, for example Mongols had a special alliance with Muslims, Muslims would take job positions that regular Chinese people wouldn’t be able to work<span> </span>for. Also the Mongols didn’t agree with the Buddhist religion they believed, the way Buddhist practiced religion was not the “true” way to practice a religion. Another two religions that often bumped heads were the Confucians and the Neo-Confucians. These two religions often were practiced in opposite sides of the nation, Because they had two very different and opposite ways of seeing things and avoided contact in order, to keep peace in their nation.</div></div>sophiahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12327072973648137005noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5166489787302105592.post-44691726586846428782011-02-23T19:45:00.001-08:002011-02-27T07:18:38.091-08:00Interview with Kublai Khan<div class="MsoNoSpacing"><div class="MsoNoSpacing"><i>Reporter: what made you want to become emperor ?</i></div><div class="MsoNoSpacing"><br />

His crowning took place in his new palace. He has been pronounced greatest descendant of Genghis Khan. Before he became emperor he the governor of northern China, while relying on the advice of the Confucian scholars, now today he has become emperor.<br />
<br />
He named his dynasty the Yuan dynasty because it appeared in the The Book Of Changes written by a Confucian scholars. Kublai hopes that his followers see that he is wanting to learn their culture to help them have a better safer nation. His 1st declared business as emperor is to change the capital from Karakorum to a site near the ruins of Jin capital, the new city is going to be known as Dadu meaning new capital. He plans to make it the most luxurious city, he plans to have nine streets going east and west and residential areas split into 50 neighborhoods called Fangs. In the city area will be a relaxed peaceful garden filled with ponds exotic fish and natures beauty. In the middle of this beautiful park will be Kublai palace more then 4,000 rooms his palace will also include 12 entering gates.<br />
<br />
Kublai number one goal as emperor is to take over the richest part of China the Yangzi River Valley. But fighting over land is not going to be an easy task especially with trying to enforce a confusansim government. He hopes to take over the Yangzi river valley to have more means of not only transportation but to have more trade routes and have the Yuan dynasty known to foreigners. Taking over the Yangzi River Valley will not only help people economical situation and have less starving families but it will help get the name of the Yuan Dynasty out to the rest of the world and opportunities to make alliances with other countries.sophiahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12327072973648137005noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5166489787302105592.post-90367344610711760222011-02-15T06:20:00.000-08:002011-02-23T20:04:05.682-08:00map of the yuan dynasty<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhhVqlQ6wgAIH7VrZgsdE916qjU3CfTDPFEMkwzp__0aFD47ItrV248V_K-sHRqrOUV9B_6MRn92EjDfJwwuYNwoXogJ9UwY76afd8MjkpOjgYevYK58xnRHdCNQVelHD8sssu2_CnY1qlI/s1600/mao+yuan+dynasty.gif" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="227" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhhVqlQ6wgAIH7VrZgsdE916qjU3CfTDPFEMkwzp__0aFD47ItrV248V_K-sHRqrOUV9B_6MRn92EjDfJwwuYNwoXogJ9UwY76afd8MjkpOjgYevYK58xnRHdCNQVelHD8sssu2_CnY1qlI/s320/mao+yuan+dynasty.gif" width="320" /></a></div><br />
