The Story of the Ming Dynasty was a history book. It mainly talked about the history and culture of the Ming Dynasty. It introduced the politics, economy, culture, and other aspects of the Ming Dynasty. However, there were also many web novels that used the Ming Dynasty as their background. They used the historical events and characters of the Ming Dynasty to create their own storylines, such as The Rise of the Ming Empire, New Chongzhen Record, Tianxia Yamen, and so on. These novels could allow readers to better understand the history of the Ming Dynasty and bring entertainment experience. I hope you like my recommendation.
