Explanation:

1) China's political process is infused with other political actors that influence and sometimes determine policy.

2)The forbidden City was constructed from 1406 to 1420, and was the former Chinese imperal palace and winter residence of the Emperor of China from the Ming dynasty ( since the Yongle Emporer) to the end of the Quing dynasty, between 1420 and 1924.

3) The Ming authority began to reward widow chastity, and widows who were remarried would have their own dowryand their husbands property forfeited the result of this policy is that palace women of the Ming era were less powerful compared to those of other dynasties.

4) Christopher Columbus, was actually from Genoa, Italy. He believed that, using calculations based on other mariners’ journeys, he could chart a westward route to India, which could be used to expand European trade and spread Christianity. Starting in 1485, he approached Genoese, Venetian, Portuguese, English, and Spanish monarchs, asking for ships and funding to explore this westward route. All those he petitioned—including Ferdinand and Isabella at first—rebuffed him; their nautical experts all concurred that Columbus’s estimates of the width of the Atlantic Ocean were far too low. However, after three years of entreaties, and, more important, the completion of the Reconquista, Ferdinand and Isabella agreed to finance Columbus’s expedition in 1492.
