Války a konfliktyMongolské invaze do Japonska
O tomto okamžiku
Major military efforts were taken by Kublai Khan of the Yuan dynasty in 1274 and 1281 to conquer the Japanese archipelago after the submission of the Korean kingdom of Goryeo to vassaldom. Ultimately a failure, the invasion attempts are of macro-historical importance because they set a limit on Mongol expansion and rank as nation-defining events in the history of Japan. The invasions are referred to in many works of fiction and are the origin of the word kamikaze (神風 "divine wind"), first used to describe the typhoons that destroyed the Mongol invasion fleets in the 13th century.
