No, he went to India and smoked the ganja and that's where he came up with all his bullshit.

>>18174585
He made it all up. He looked up China's Wiki.

He smoked weed until he thought up the actual historical ruling Chinese Emperor and had him act more or less in keeping with his documented policies?
Must have been some strong stuff!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

No. His starship crashed there and he had to walk back to the Middle East to get in contact with the last of the Anunnaki to get a lift home. Got taken captive by agents of the Vatican at the command of the Markab and that’s when he wrote a little doodle that ended up getting popular.

He probably compiled second hand accounts given how unaccurate some are compared to Ibn Battuta's first hand accounts on China

This. I forget the name but there were a few other guys going over there before/around the same time as him.

>>18174585
For a while they thought he made it up but in the last 10 years they found some chinese text that talked a out some weird eccentric guy from the west they think was Marco Polo
