Mongol Conquest of the Song Dynasty

Years: 1235 - 1279

The conquest of the Southern Song Dynasty under Kublai Khan (r. 1260-1294) is the final step for the Mongols to rule the whole of China.

It is also considered the Mongol Empire's last great military achievement.

"[the character] Professor Johnston often said that if you didn't know history, you didn't know anything. You were a leaf that didn't know it was part of a tree."
