*''Reign: [[1426]]-[[1435]]''
*''Other Names: Xuanzong''
*''Chinese/Japanese'': 宣德帝 ''(Xuāndé dì / Sentoku tei)''
The Xuande Emperor, also known as Ming Xuanzong, was the fifth emperor of China's [[Ming Dynasty]].
His reign saw the last of [[Zheng He|Zheng He's]] famous "treasure ship" voyages, and the abandonment of Ming efforts to conquer [[Annam]] (Vietnam), as the Court turned its attention to more domestic matters, and to defending the borders against the [[Mongols]]. The Xuande Emperor launched one significant campaign against the Mongols, but the conflict with the Mongols became more significant under his successor, the [[Zhengtong Emperor]] (Ming Yingzong).
