The founder of the Ming dynasty, Zhu Yuanzhang (Chu
Yüan-chang), also known by his reign name "Hung-wu", came from a poor
peasant family. He was orphaned at the age of 16 and then entered a
Buddhist monastery, but left it in 1352 to join a band of rebels, of which he
became leader. By 1382 he had ended Mongol rule and unified all
China. His reign was marked by the consolidation of imperial power,
agrarian reconstruction, and intimidation of the landed and scholarly elite, a
reflection of his commoner roots. Source:
