Marco Polo was a merchant who traveled to mainly China and Mongolia. He got a lot of respect from the ruler of Mongolia, Kublai Khan, and recorded his travels in prison with Rustichello da Pisa.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
He was born in a wealthy Venetian family in the year 1254, his father, Nicolo, was a merchant and his mother Nicole was a regular person.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
What I was really curious about was when the guy was talking about Marco’s death and how a priest was standing over him in is deathbed and telling him to confess that his book of travels was mostly fiction.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
But, he didn’t and said that he had only told a fration of his stories and which I think means that he only told a bit of it and there would be even more exciting and risky stories waiting to te revealed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Overall I really enjoyed this video because it gave a lot of facts and details about Marco Polo’s birth, death, and his life. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
