The Hong Wu Emperor of 1368 to 1398 was originally a Buddhist monk before obtaining full power as a ruler, so he continuously promoted his religion. Most rulers that followed him were also Buddhists. The Chia- Ching Emperor (1522-1566) obsessed over Taoism. However, the Wan- Li Emperor brought the dynasty back to Buddhism, which is how it would remain for many years. The government consisted of many Islamic people, who were only tolerated by the Ming. Christianity was argued against by all the religions. The final defeat of the Ming Dynasty closed off the imperial palace to the Jesuit missionaries.
