The Great Ming Empire owes its origins to the collapse of the Flag of Yuan
Yuan dynasty from Flag of Mongolia Mongolia and the period of rebellion and
strife that struck China in the mid-14th century. From this age of chaos, the
Ming emerged as the greatest power in China, eliminating their Han rivals and
pushing the descendants of Kublai Khan back to the Great Wall. After eighty
years of governance, the Ming have firmly established themselves as the
preeminent power in East Asia.
Even though Ming continues to prosper, its international presence has flagged
since the end of Zheng He's voyages, and new realms have posed fresh
challenges to the empire. In the divided north, nomads have begun to coalesce
under the leadership of the Flag of Oirat Oirat warlord Esen, who aspires to
become the new Great Khan of all the Mongols. Ming diplomacy at least
prevented a similar movement from happening among the Jurchen tribes to the
northeast, where Imperial policy has encouraged infighting among the nomads.
While the fractious and distracted Jurchens are unlikely to pose a threat any
time soon, Esen's Oirats may prove to be a very formidable foe indeed.
Ming's relations in the south are somewhat better. Flag of Dai Viet Dai Viet
freed itself from Ming domination only two decades prior, and still remains
wary of its Chinese neighbor to the north. Other powers in the region have a
more positive opinion of Ming, but mountains and jungles mean that Ming
receives little more than token tributes from the southern kingdoms.
Ming's relations are strongest with the Joseon dynasty of Flag of Korea
Korea. Both Ming and the Joseon dynasty emerged from the ashes of the Great
Yuan, and thanks to their common adherence to Confucian philosophy both have
maintained strong bonds ever since.
Not all of Ming's troubles are external; the Mandate of Heaven is a fickle
one, and if the Emperor's authority wavers too much then there are those who
may choose to shun the Ming altogether. China would have to fall far indeed
to reach such dire straits; in the 15th century, the Great Ming Empire is by
far the strongest realm in Asia, and quite possibly on Earth!

大明帝国发端于蒙古的元王朝的崩溃，以及14世纪中叶袭扰中国的动乱与纷争。乱世之中
，大明诞生为中华大地上最强大的势力，消灭他们同为汉人的对手，将忽必烈汗的子孙赶
出长城。开国八十年，大明已然稳坐东亚龙头宝座。
尽管大明依旧繁荣，然而其国际影响在郑和的远航结束后便陷入衰退，新生国家也为帝国
带来了崭新的挑战。在分裂的北方，游牧民向渴望成为新蒙古大汗的瓦刺首领也先麾下聚
集。先前明朝的外交手段至少阻止东北的女真部族统一在一起，这归功于明朝煽动游牧民
内斗的政策。虽然易怒又疯狂的女真部似乎短期内不太可能成为威胁，也先率领的瓦刺部
却很可能成为强大的敌手。
明朝与南方诸国的关系多少要好一些。大越二十年前才从明朝独立，并仍对北方的中国邻
居保持着警惕。这一地区的其他国家对明朝的态度友好得多，但遍布该地区的山岳与丛林
意味着明朝不过能从这些南部的王国手中得到一点象征性的贡品。
明朝与朝鲜的朝鲜王朝关系最为紧密。明与朝鲜王朝都建立于大元的废墟之上。两国关系
因共同信仰儒家哲学而变得更加紧密。
明朝面临的麻烦并非都来自外部，天命就是其中易变的一个，如果皇帝的权威摇摆不定，
各地豪强便可能会揭竿而起。中国将难免陷入这样可怕的境地，但在15世纪，大明帝国仍
然是东亚乃至地球上最强大的国家。

为何外国人认为中国的明朝在15世纪里是地球最强大的国家?
外国人有什么根据这么讲呢?
