The Mongol Empire under Genghis Khan started the conquest with small-scale raids into Western Xia in 1205 and 1207. By 1279, the Mongol leader Kublai Khan had established the Yuan dynasty in China and crushed the last Song resistance, which marked the onset of all of China under the Mongol Yuan rule.
it was a period of mongol rule in china under kublai and genghis khan
Kublai Khan conquered the last of the Song Dynasty and brought China under Mongol rule.
The most famous European to serve in the Kublai government was probably Marco Polo (1254-1324). In the book, The Travels of Marco Polo, Polo is said to have served as a government official under the Mongolian ruler of China, Kublai Khan.According to the book, Polo served under Kublai Khan for two decades; however, scholars disagree on the truthfulness of The Travels of Marco Polo, as Polo may have collected stories he heard from other travelers and passed them off as his own.It is possible that Polo actually served under Kublai Khan; Kublai was visited by several Europeans during his reign in China.
Marco Polo believed he can write the history of China under the life of the Mongols living with Kublai Khan and his armies. :)

When the Mongols invaded China they established the Yuan Dynasty under Kublai Khan (grandson of Genghis Khan). The Mongols were very wary of the Chinese people and did not want them in any sort of high government positions, which caused most of the power to be in the hands of Mongolian peoples. The Mongols built many palaces and monuments and generally supported Chinese cultural acts. The Yuan Dynasty saw advancements in the arts as well as an influx of cartography, foods, and knowledge from the Muslim world. They even had a unified way of writing Chinese and Mongolian. However as the Mongols became greedier, they began to drain China of much of its wealth and induced forced labor to an extent. After Kublai Khan's death the dynasty lingered for a few years and in 1368 it ended with China having a bitterness toward the Mongols
The capital city of China under the leadership of Kublai Khan was Beijing. That's why Beijing is the capital city of China now.
The Mongol invasion of China lasted over 6 decades and particularly involved the defeat of the Jin Dynasty, Western Xia, the Dali Kingdom, and the Southern Song, which finally fell in year 1276. The Mongols under Kublai Khan established the Yuan Dynasty in China and crushed the last Song resistance in 1279, which marked the onset of all of China under the Yuan.

Around this time period, China was under what is called the Southern Song Dynasty. During this dynasty Kublai Khan, a Mongolian invader, became the emperor of China.
The Mongols did under the leadership of Hulegu Khan, the grandson of Genghis Khan and brother of Kublai Khan.

The "Great Capital" city of Daidu (which is now modern-day Beijing) was the capital city under the leadership of Kublai Khan.
They began to invade China during the 13th century. Kublai Khan was declared the emperor of China in 1260, but it took another 19 years before the people in the south were fully brought under mongol rule. The Yuan dynasty was offcially established in 1271 before they gained complete control of China.
The Mongols were a nomadic group originating from Central Asia who lived during the 13th and 14th centuries. They are known for establishing the largest contiguous land empire in history under leaders such as Genghis Khan and Kublai Khan.
