Extractions: Marco Polo A research Report Marco Polo was born in 1253 in Venice, Italy. His father and uncle were merchants who traveled far into Asia when Marco was still young. Marco was 15 when they returned. His dad's stories were so wonderful that Marco decided to go with them to Asia when he was 17. The trip to Asia took four years. Marco used paper maps that showed water currents and the way the wind blew. The voyage was almost impossible because he had to hike across miles and miles of hot deserts and get ships to sail back to Venice. Marco stayed in Asia for 24 years. For the majority of the time Marco was governor of Yang Chow, at the time a blooming city. Eventually, Marco came back to Venice and told some of his stories. Our group thinks Marco is an explorer because he was very brave and he explored new lands. Marco started his journey in Venice and then Sailed to Damascus. From their, he walked across Asia's deserts and traded with Kubli Khan. Kubli Khan gave Marco a boat and he traveled southward, past Canton. Marco then sailed around the tip of India, past Calicut and through the canal between Arabia and Asia. Marco walked to Constantinople. After long journey, he sailed back to Venice with his goods. When Marco first came back to Venice, he was wearing tattered rags of traveling clothes but, he tore his clothes apart and a fortune of ivory, jade, jewels, porcelain, silk and other treasures fell out. After a few years in Venice, Marco became the captain of a ship and fought a naval battle against Genoa for rights to the Mediterranean trade routes. Marco was taken prisoner and, when he was in jail, he told his story to cell mate and later, Marco's family published it. He was released from prison 1299.

This Italian traveller journeyed to the Far East with his merchant father Nicolo and uncle Maffeo in 1271, when he was 17 years old. They crossed Persia to the Chinese border, went on through the Hindu Kush and the Pamir mountains and across the Gobi desert by camel caravan to the court of Kublai Khan. This journey took three and a half years, but Marco Polo joined the service of Kublai Khan and remained there for the next 17 years. His father and uncle also stayed on as military advisers. During his years working as a diplomat for Kublai Khan, Marco travelled extensively throughout Mongolia, China, Tibet, Burma, Siberia and as far south as Indonesia.

Extractions: Spring 1997 (5.1) Just hearing the name "Marco Polo" conjures up images of fantastic adventures in exotic places. Of all the explorers who traveled the Silk Route from Europe to China during the Middle Ages, he is by far the most famous. "Marco Polo's Travels," which vividly describes his 24-year journey in the late 1300s, continues to capture the imagination of readers today, even as it did hundreds of years ago. Now, more than 700 years later, a small American-based expedition team from GlobaLearn is making it possible for 90,000 students from all over the world to retrace Marco Polo's historic footsteps without leaving their classrooms. The idea came from GlobaLearn's 28-year-old Founder and President Murat Armbruster. For little more than the price of a telephone call, he realized that he could make far corners of the globe come to life for a virtually unlimited number of students, simply by sending an expedition team to explore an area and having them post daily reports on the World Wide Web.

We quickly remind ourselves that YOU are traveling with us and we are all learning so much about the world! Even though this kind of travel can be very hard, we know it's worth it, and hope you will travel the world someday yourselves. Would you like that? Well, until you can do this yourselves, let us tell you the stories of a few other explorers who have traveled the world. Ferdinand Magellan Ferdinand Magellan is famous because he led a group of sailors all the way around the world. They were the first ones to do this in a boat. Magellan himself didn't have such good luck, though. First, the sailors didn't all like him and they kept trying to take over the boat from him! Then, after they went around the tip of South America (where part of it is now named after him - the Straits of Magellan), they completely guessed wrong about how big the Pacific Ocean is. They thought they could cross it in a few days. This is because they thought the earth was much smaller than it really is. Do you think you could cross the whole ocean in a few days? Well, it took them 4 months! They ran out of food and had to eat sawdust and rats and leather strips from the sails!
