Kublai Khan
  • March 19 : The Battle of Yamen is one of the greatest naval battles in world history. Despite the numerical superiority of the armed forces of the Song Dynasty under their Admiral Zhang Shijie, the Mongolian fleet of Kublai Khan wins and thus finally ends the rule of the Song Dynasty in China . The prime minister and imperial advisor Lu Xiufu realizes the hopelessness of the situation, takes the child emperor Song Bing and jumps with him into the river at Yaishan's to kill himself and his ruler before they reach the Mongol army on Mount Ya near the river. The Yuan dynasty founded by Kublai Khan thus united the Chinese empire by military means after more than 300 years of division.
