After Mongol rule, which culminated in the establishment of the Yuan Dynasty (1271-1368), the Chinese government underwent significant changes. While the Mongols maintained some aspects of Chinese governance, they implemented a structure that favored Mongol and other non-Han elites, leading to a distinct separation between the ruling class and the Han Chinese population. Following the fall of the Yuan Dynasty, the Ming Dynasty restored Han Chinese rule and reestablished traditional Confucian governance, marking a return to more indigenous Chinese political practices. Thus, the government shifted from Mongol influence back to a more traditional Chinese framework.
