Goryeo began sending [[tribute]] to [[Ming Dynasty]] China in [[1370]], just two years after the Ming dynasty's founding.<ref>Tomiyama Kazuyuki, ''Ryûkyû ôkoku no gaikô to ôken'', Yoshikawa Kobunkan (2004), 34.</ref>
Goryeo first established formal relations with the Okinawan kingdom of [[Chuzan|Chûzan]] in [[1389]], three years before the dynasty fell, but relations are believed to have continued relatively uninterrupted through that transition. Goryeo also enjoyed imports from Southeast Asia, including [[sappanwood]], [[eaglewood|aloeswood]], and other tropical products, carried via Chinese or Japanese merchants.<ref>Geoffrey Gunn, ''History Without Borders: The Making of an Asian World Region, 1000-1800'', Hong Kong University Press (2011), 217.</ref>
