A study on the changes of political relations between China and Choson in the Late - Yuan and Early-Ming Period

This research explores the shifting political landscape between China and Choson during a period of significant historical transitions. The Yuan Dynasty (1271–1368) was established by the Mongols, and the political relations between China and Choson during this time were heavily influenced by Mongol imperial power. Following the downfall of the Yuan Dynasty and the rise of the Ming Dynasty (1368–1644), these relations changed notably as China shifted from a Mongol-led regime to a Han Chinese-led government under the Ming emperors.
This study highlights the dynamic and complex political relations between China and Choson during the late Yuan and early Ming periods. The fall of the Yuan Dynasty and the rise of the Ming Dynasty marked a shift in the political dynamics of East Asia. While the Yuan period was characterized by Mongol dominance over Choson, the Ming period saw a reassertion of Chinese authority through a tribute system, but with greater autonomy for Choson. This changing relationship laid the foundation for the long-lasting ties between the two countries in the centuries that followed. The book is written in a Chinese language.
