How many countries has Zheng He visited in the Western Ocean?

Zheng He has been to more than 30 countries. At the beginning of the Ming Dynasty, due to the efforts of Zhu Yuanzhang for thirty-one years, the agricultural economy recovered. Handicraft industry has also developed greatly: mining and metallurgy, textiles, ceramics, paper making and printing have all been improved to varying degrees than before.

The recovery and development of industry and commerce in the early Ming Dynasty, the development of China's overseas trade since the Song and Yuan Dynasties, and the increase of foreign immigrants all prepared a solid economic foundation and material conditions for Zheng He's voyage to the West. At present, it is known that he has traveled as far as East Africa and the Red Sea. Because of Judy's great talent, Zheng He's voyage to the West is a feat! Zheng He's voyages to the West were several advantages of China's ancient navigation and even the whole world at that time. Ships have the largest number, the largest scale, the longest sailing time, the longest sailing distance and the largest number of countries visited.

The background of Zheng He's voyage to the West was that the Ming Dynasty was powerful, and the Mongolian forces in the north had been expelled from the Great Wall by Judy's move to the imperial capital and personal expedition. At this time, Judy felt that he should let the country develop. He hoped that all overseas countries would pay tribute to him, so he sent Zheng He abroad and then asked other countries to pay tribute.

Originally, the original purpose of Zheng He's voyage to the West was to enhance his national prestige, so he naturally went to different countries as much as possible and reached friendly relations with them, so that he could not only achieve the task of enhancing his national prestige arranged by the emperor, but also exchange goods from different countries. Therefore, Zheng He always made seven voyages to the Western Ocean, each time bringing different novelty to the Ming Dynasty. The word "foreign goods" rose in the Ming Dynasty. It was Zheng He's voyage that opened the Maritime Silk Road and had a far-reaching impact on later generations.
