Chi-Ji Guang and the History of the Portuguese in China

In 1557, the Portuguese were given permission to establish a permanent settlement on Macau with a rent of 500 tales of silver per year. As an encore to his achievements against the Japanese pirates, Chi-Ji Guang was sent up north to deal with the Mongols. He had these battlements built, spaced out throughout the entirety of the Great Wall of China that gave it its famous makeover. And we'll look at Mateo Ricci, the Jesuit priest who did so much work in Chinese studies as well as trying to establish the church in China.
