Niccolo and Maffeo's Journeys brought them into present-day China, where they joined a strategic crucial court of Kublai Khan, the Mongol chief whose granddad, Genghis Khan, had conquered Northeast Asia. In 1269, the two men came back to Venice and promptly began making arrangements for their arrival to Khan's court.
