Marco Polo

The historical significance of this game relates back to a time when Marco Polo (age 17) was traveling to China with his father and uncle on their way to see the Great Khan. Marco was very tired and he fell asleep on his horse. His horse must have sensed this and slowed down dropping back from the caravan. When Marco Polo awoke he did not see his family. He began to hear voices in the desert thinking it was the caravan calling for him...hense "Marco" "Polo." He was later found but it was not his family calling. He was halluicinating.

Marco polo did not really have a job the only job that he had was an explorer and the job was encerge by his uncle and his dad. and they left to go to china at age 17 and the journey took about three years and after that he started to travel more and then he became an explorer.

Marco Polo was captured by the Genoa because when Marco Polo got back from his journey, Venice was at war with Genoa. So for that being, while Marco Polo tried to help on one of Venice's ships Marco Polo got captured and put in jail.

The name of Marco Polo's mother is not recorded in any surviving record for the period and therefor is unknown. Little is known about her other than she died when Marco was a boy.

Well, he didn't travel "for" Italy, as though they had a team or something. He was Italian, and he travelled (a lot!) but that's about the extent of things. Upon his return from the court of Kublai Khan, he was thrown in jail for being a deadbeat and a teller of tall tales. It was there that he wrote his book(s).

the pole brand is dedicated to him . so i guess he was liked

Polo was the 17 year old son of an Italian merchant who went to China with his father and uncle. It took them 4 years to get there and he stayed 25 before returning to Venice. He wrote a book about his adventures that influenced explorers 200 years later. When he came home he brought back silks, perfumes, spices, and gunpowder. The gunpowder will change the shape of war and the balance of power.

Marco Polo was an Italian merchant adventurer. Marco Polo (1) trekked across Asia and was one of the first Europeans to make a detailed account of the cities, cultures, and technology of the places he went within the Far East. He documented his journeys mostly while he was in jail for (2) leading a group of Venetians into battle against a rival city-state.

Before or during the year of 1271

Marco Polo was from Spain, therefore his flag would be the Spanish flag.

Marco Polo is in fact from Venice, Italy. The flag would be Italy's, but I cannot find an illustration from that period.

It was actual 13 clipper ships and around 100 to 1,000 crew mates on the ships

He received his sickness from the prison in Genoa that he was kept in for a few months.
