The Hongwu Emperor was _____.
Mamont248 [21]

The correct answer is - the founder of the Ming dynasty.

The Hongwu Emperor was the emperor that is considered as the founder of the Ming dynasty  in China. He came to rule China in the 14th century, after the Mongol Empire started to dissolve, and the Mongols were pushed back out of China and into the northern steppes.

China in this period was in terrible conditions, as the Mongols were very cruel towards them, so there was a famine, diseases, peasant revolts, so he had a very hard job in front of him in order to reform and reconstruct the country. His reign can be seen as somewhat of a transitional faze in the Chinese society.
