In between, the Muslim empire covers swathes of Europe, the Vikings land in North America, the Normans invade Britain, Genghis Khan sweeps through Asia and shoguns rule in Japan. Meanwhile, the Black Death spreads to Europe, the Chinese invent gunpowder, paper money and the spinning wheel, and Venetian Marco Polo makes an epic journey to Asia.
