Mystery of the lost fleet

Khubilai Khan was a man who had everything. He was the grandson of Genghis Khan, and had successfully taken over his grandfather's rule of China seven centuries ago. Nevertheless, there is one country that defied him - Japan.

So it was, that in the year 1281, Khubilai Khan (also known as Kublai Khan) built an armada of 4,400 ships carrying 140,000 men, and set forth to conquer the Land of the Rising Sun.

However, one fateful night in August that year, the massive fleet and all its crew members mysteriously vanished. It was the largest loss of life at sea in history, and a turning point that changed the history of the world, as we know it.
