Now some of the really far-reaching innovations from this dynasty include building on the Tang use of block printing, but thinking about movable type, which makes printing far more practical.

Now the Song Dynasty is eventually overthrown in the 13th century by the Mongols, and they are able to establish the Yuan Dynasty, with Kublai Khan being the first emperor of it, grandson of Genghis, or Genghis Khan. Now they are eventually overthrown in the 14th century by the Ming Dynasty. The Ming Dynasty is once again ethnically Han, and some of the most famous attractions that are associated with China today really came about from the Ming Dynasty.
