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'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).
