Chinese and European trading routes in 15th century

Zheng He’s (1371-1435 AD) 7 major expeditions between 1405 AD and 1430 AD. A fleet might have as many as 28,000 people on 300 ships. The largest of the ships had a length of 440 Chinese feet and a width of 180 (dwarfing Columbus' Santa Maria (75 ft x 25 ft) more than 6-fold), it took 1000 passengers and crew. http://www.time.com/time/asia/features/journey2001/greatship.html for pic on right Biography from http://www.nationmaster.com/encyclopedia/Zheng-He Zheng He was a Muslim eunuch who served as a close confidant of the Yongle Emperor of China (reigned 1403 - 1424), the third emperor of the Ming Dynasty.

The princess came with her 1,500 servants who eventually settled in Bukit Cina in Malacca. The descendants of these people are known today as Baba (the male title) and Nyonya (the female title). (MP) in the twelfth year of Yongle (1414 AD). In 1424 the Yongle Emperor died. His successor, the Hongxi (reigned 1424 - 1425), decided to curb the influence of the eunuchs at court. Zheng He made one more voyage under the Xuande Emperor (reigned 1426 - 1435), but after that Chinese treasure ship fleets ended
