Years: 1288 - 1299

The Mongol troops of China’s Yuan dynasty, invading Dai Viet for the third and final tine, are defeated and are forced to withdraw their troops from Dai Viet and Champa.

Kublai Khan, the Great Khan of the Mongol Empire and the founder of the Yuan Dynasty, sends a large invasion fleet to Java in 1293 with twenty thousand to thirty thousand soldiers.

This is a punitive expedition against King Kertanegara of Singhasari, who had refused to pay tribute to the Yuan and maimed one of its ministers.

The invasion results in the establishment of Majahapit, a vast archipelagic empire based on the island of Java (modern-day Indonesia) to around 1500.
