Marco Polo follows the young Venetian trader as he's essentially traded into the court of Kublai Khan, the Mongol emperor building the largest empire in history. Caught between spying, scheming nobles, and Khan's own ambitions, Marco has to survive by his wits while palace intrigue, brutal power struggles, and martial-arts set pieces play out around him.
