Marco Polo's Mothere is Nicole Anna Defuseh.

The exact date of birth for Marco Polo is not known, but he is thought to have been born in September of 1254. He died in January of 1324 at the age of about 69.

No, Marco Polo was emphatically NOT an explorer. The vatican had asked Kublai Khan what it would take to keep the Mongol Hordes out of Europe. His response was that to keep from being conquered, the Mongols would accept tribute. Marco Polo simply was enroute to pay the Mongolian Empire tribute. Marco's first trip was an overland route, via the ancient silk highway. (he, Marco, made as many as four trips to the orient). The Chinese/Mongollians scoffed at Marco and company, whom thought the world was flat. Khublai sailed Marco and company, back to Europe via a fleet of Junks. upon Marco's fourth and final journey to the Mongol empire, when they sailed him back to Europe, the Europeans merely kept the fleet and a few things else that were either stolen or given to Marco and his men. The following items were also kept/stolen/given to Marco: cannon, weapons-such as muskets that could be lit by a fuse, gun powder and the formulae to make it, the magnetic compass, movable print type, paper and a few other items. Eurpeans conquered All the known world with the instruments that were taken, one way or another, from the Orient.

Marco Polo had 3 children, and they were all girls. one of them was named Fantina, Bellela, and Moreta

Marco polo, as you no, was born in Venice his mother dies when she gave birth to him. so his aunt taught him maths and arithmetic. she also taught him how to judge things so he knew they were not cheap and foreign money. people did not know much about his early stages of life.

One of the positives of Marco's journeys is he brought back spices.

Marco left Venice Italy with his father and uncle for Asia. He was 17 and his father was a rich merchant who wanted to open a trade route to China. He paid for the trip that took 4 years of travel by foot, horseback, camel, ship, and across several countries before they reached China. Marco will stay for 25 years before he returns to Italy.

Marco Polo was 35 when he got married

Yes. He had three...

Marco Polo died well before the Americas were rediscovered by Colombus. He did not contribue anything himself. It could be argued that people wanted to find a way to the orient by way of sea as opposed to across land, they way he did.

I think he went insane

Marco Polo's wife lived in Venice when she was a child but moved to China when she was 11 then moved back to Venice when she was 16.

Europeans who read about his travels were inspired to explore.

Marco Polo had three girls Fantina, Bellela and Moreta. he did not have a son.
