+ | Annam is on the southwest of China, 13000 Li away from Beijing. It was a county named 象郡 in Qin dynasty. In Han dynasty, it was a county called 交趾郡. At the end of the time of five dynasties, 黎桓 firstly ascended the throne and ruled like a king. In Ming dynasty at the reign of Yongle, the rebellion was suppressed. The land of the area was 1700 li from the east to the west and 2800 li from the north to the south. It betrayed again later. At the beginning of the reign of Jiajing, 莫登庸 killed the king and usurped the throne. He was not allowed to be the king but called 安南都統使 instead. But he still made himself the king of the country. A book named 事文玉屑 said:交趾国,also named Annam, is the descendant of 瓠犬,the character of its people are cunning. They cut up their hair and walk on bare feet, they have deep eyes and bold mouth, the look of them is extremely ugly and evil. People who were called foreign devils with human looks by people in Guangdong and Guangxi provinces were descendants of the troops of Ma Yuan. | ||

They do not behave according to rite and morality, they tend to be violent and aggressive. Only 驩演 people are unsophisticated and eager to learn more. The most impressive landscape is 句漏 and 富良江river. It has 越王城,天使館,浪泊柱. It produces gold, pearls, 诸, spicery,rhinoceros,elephants,兕,orangutans,baboon,silver pheasant,emerald,jackfruit. I went to the capital, met with their envoy again, he has black teeth and with disheveled hair, knows a lot about scripts and writing, speaking with joint tone. It is similar to deep eyes and bold mouth, but they all have disheveled hair, this is different from cutting hair in ancient times. | ||

+ | Ryukyu is in the southeast sea. Starting from 梅花所 in Fujian, it would take 7 days to get there. The king usually lives a simple life, decorate his place of living without gold and other decoration. Taxes and laws are similar to 井田法. King’s ministers receive lands as salary. There is no taxation from above, punishments to illegal acts are extremely rigorous. They use trumpet shell as cooking vessel. People here are strong and active, rarely use medicine and seldom get ill. Weapons and arms are solid and firm with a range of fire up to 200 bu. Violent and aggressive, kill people within seconds. If they think it's impossible to get out of trouble, they commit a suicide immediately. As to its landscape, there are 黿鼉 island, 彭胡島 island. 古米mountain in the west of the country is extremely abrupt, boats that reached near it always failed. It has no wild beast, so there live a large number of wild horses. 毗舍那 nearby is a small tribe one the island, they speak the language of birds and have an appearance like ghost, it seems they are not human. In 韓昌黎送鄭尚書序, it said that he had heard that Ryukyu is to the south of 济州. It can be seen sometimes when the weather is good. Generally, it should not be very far in the sea. | ||

+ | The state of Siam is located thousands of li away, in the ocean, surrounded by mountains. It is humid on the ground, and the wind and heat is irregular. Originally, Sha and Mu were two separated lands; Sha people were the decedents of the Red Eyebrows army from China. During the Zhizheng period of Yuan, Sha and Mu merged into one state. They respect religions, and females are wise and their husbands usually follow their decisions. As for their funerals, wealthy people use mercury burials, and ordinary people use bird burials. They are good at water battles and like invading and stealing. They have rich resources of crystals, spices, lions, elephants, white rats and six-leg turtle. 蘇木賤如薪色絶勝。When I go to the capital and see its map; there are Longya Mountains crossing the ocean. The entrance is in the middle, and the shapes are quite different. Its people have short hairs, black faces, wearing barbarians’ clothes, with bare feet. They use hands to eat and donot know Chinese characters, so it is not a state with rituals and manners. (civilized states?) | ||

+ | Japan is used to be named as Wa state. It started contacts with China during the Han dynasty and changed its name to Japan during the Tang dynasty. It is as far as more than five thousand Li from east to west, hundreds of li from south to north. Only its eastern mountains and eastern sea regions are 唯東山東海等道。南北千餘里。Because it is narrow from south to north and wider from east to west, it is named as the state of One (Chinese character). According to Book of Han, the King of Wa state reside in 邪馬臺. According to the (Reorganization and Studies)General Rectification of Literature, Wa people have hundreds of states, and 邪馬 is one of them. According to 姜沆聞見錄, the old capital of the Wa King was named as 野馬臺. It has four hundred and eighty extremely splendid temples, which can be compared with the four hundred and eighty temples of the Southern dynasties. | ||

It has a golden mountain in the ocean, and its northern area connects to Emishi. Its people are tall and big, with hairy body. It is famous for local productions of fish and mink. Nomadic people of Shanrong also live there, with their own communities. Its land is broad and endless. It is said that it was only thirty Li from Izumi Taira of Ōshū to Hokaido, where connects with the nomadic people of our state. In the past, when Tang envoys visited Chongsǒng-gun(鍾城) and tried to convince barbarians, Wa people were at that place and heard about that. Ikai is also named as Ishima. As for Emishi, they look like the hairy people. According to Shin Suk-chu(申叔舟)’s Haetongchekukki (海東諸國記), its land began from the north of Heilongjiang. | ||

The emperor does not intervene in political affairs but merely enjoys riches and honor. The king who administers state affairs is called Kanpaku (關白), by which he shows reverence for the emperor. How could it be seen the same custom left by the Zhou dynasty? What people say "idling around" is exact the emperor of Japan. Someone says the surname of the emperor of Japan is Ji, (implying that) they are the descendants of Taibo<sup>1</sup> and Zhongyong<sup>2</sup> of Wu<sup>3</sup>.

+ | Traveling from Busan to the capital of Japan approximately crosses 4,000 li by sea. Departing from the capital, traveling northeast to Suruga(駿河) Prefecture, and going 1,000 again, there is a mountain called Fuji(富士). The mountain is 400 odd li tall, standing erect from a big lake. From half height above, ice and snow cap the high and steep peaks, which does not melt even in midsummer. It could even be seen within a range of 1,000 li. The place east to the mountain is called Mishima (三島). There is a steep mountain named Hakone(箱根) to the northeast of Mishima, where there is a huge lake. It is said that exotic flowers and rare herbs thickly grow along the lake bank. In my opinion, Fuji originated from the Chinese pronunciation, meaning the mountain of Athanasia. Is it the reason that there widely grows medicine of immortality? In accordance with Song Jinglian's poem<sup>5</sup>, "In Sanshu(三州), snow in June falls like white feathers; the intertwined roots push the ground down". Sanshu is a place name of dwardfish Japan. | ||

+ | In the Book of the Later Han, it is said that Xu Fu put out to sea and arrived Yi(夷) Prefecture and Tan (澶) Prefecture (夷澶洲). The two places refer to the overseas prefecture of Yi and Tan (夷亶之州) according to Han Yu's writing. Thinking of the pronunciations of Yi and Tan (夷亶), there are two prefectures called Kii(紀伊) and Dan (淡) in Nankaidō, Japan. Dan (淡) and Tan (澶) are phonetically similar, I doubt they actually refer to Yi Prefecture and Tan Prefecture. In accordance with Kang Hang's <sup>6</sup> travelogue, Japanese people regard Mount Atsuta(熱田山) in Ise(伊勢), Mount Kumano(熊野山) in Kii, and Mount Fuji in Suruga as the three divine mountains. Moreover, Xu Fu became a deity after his death and there built a temple of Xu Fu in Suruga. The guardian of the Mount Kumano is Xu Fu. Mount Atago(愛宕山) is guarded by the God of Ilna (日羅)[Nichra]. As to the so-called Ilna, I was wondering if it refers to yeongo(迎烏) mentioned in Memorabilia of the Three Kingdoms, who was also called Seo (細烏) <sup>4</sup>. Jo Wanbyeok said he saw Xu Fu's temple in Kyoto. It is said that Xu Fu was (still) enshrined by his descendants. | ||

+ | The (majority) of the land of Japan is warm and there is no snow (in winter). However, Hokurikudō (北陸道) is so cold that the snow will accumulate to a couple of zhang every winter. Moreover, the islands of Japan are all small rocks covered by thin soil. Therefore, the Japanese measure the fertileness or barrenness of land according to its thickness and thinness. Should the land layer is as thin as 1 cheok, no grains could grow. If the land layer is as thick as 7 cheok to 1 chang, then it will be the most fertile land. Jeju in our state is similar. There is no land which layer exceeds 3 cheok. Therefore, every time suffering from drought, people from the land will sell grains to Jeju people in order to aid their life. As to burial, it is said that half of the coffine will expose. | ||

+ | The land in Taema/Tsushima Island is all sand and rocks, therefore the Japanese living there mainly depend on trade with our country to survive. In times of peace more than half of the land taxes of Yeongnam are returned to them. Handed down through the generations, Sō Morinaga’s ancestors were originally from our country and called Song, but when they arrived at the island as leaders their name became Sō. In the time of Hideyoshi they were destroyed and Taira Yoshitoshi, who replaced them, served as guide for the invading pirates [during the Japanese invasions], how can this grief be overcome? Generally the Japanese of Taema/Tsushime know the affairs of our countries well and can further understand our language, which they use cunningly to trick people. Although in times of peace they pay tributes and trade, and are held in check, during other times they cause troubles. Some say although Yoshitoshi changed his name to Taira, in reality the name of Sō has not become extinct. | ||

Because of the ties to Baekjae there was a close relation to our country. The ancestors of the nowadays Japanese general (daimyo) Mori Terumoto were his successors. The line of the descendants of Imjeong was cut off after forty-seven generations and in their place the ancestors of Mori Terumoto took the land and built their capital in Aki province. Their customs are more relaxed than the other Japanese and one can say that they have the spirit of our people. | ||

+ | Liushan exists in the middle of the west sea. Its four sides are surrounded by the sea, so there are no fortifications. They gather and reside, relying on mountains. There are about three thousand places called “liu”. When boats encounter the wind, they lose their way, drift, and eventually sink. Its natives call it "three thousand lis of Ruoshui". People there make nests (and live there) or reside in caves, and eat fish and toads. They do not wear clothes, and cover their front and back with grass, trees and leaves. As I think about it, the book "Yunfu" states as follows: “Ruoshui exists in the middle of the west sea, and is not even capable of making a feather float.” So this is what it is. Also, the History of Jin says that the Puyo state is to the north of Xuantu. In the north, there was the Ruoshui, where the Sushen family reached all the way to the east of the great sea, and all the way to the north, which is the Ruoshui. The Xuxianzhuan (Sequel of the Biography of the Hermits) says that the Penglai blocks the way towards the three thousand lis of the Ruoshui, so one cannot get there, unless he is a flying hermit. Hence, there is also the Ruoshui to the northeast thereof. | ||

+ | The great state of Koi [RR: Goi] (now Kozhikode/Calicut) is a confederation of various states in the western sea. It is apart from China ten thousand ri. Its king is fond of Buddhism and reveres elephants and cows. When he grew old, he did not pass the throne to his son, instead he tried to pass it to his maternal grandson or his younger brother. But he does not have a grandson nor a brother. So he passed the throne to a man of good deeds. Their social custom regards highly of honor and morality. Pedestrians give way to each other. No one keeps anything found on the road. They use bottle gourd as musical instrument. Therefore it is a peerless state in the sea. And it has the atmosphere of the ancient three dynasties, thus it can be followed. | ||

Emperor Yuan of the Han dynasty instituted 戊己校尉 in the place, cultivating farm by the stationed army where the court of the former kingdom used to be. As that place was higher and broader than its neighbor regions, the place was called Gao Chang. Later, it was occupied by Tu Fan. During the Yuan era, it was titled Wei Wu Er.

The countries mentioned above came from several books, including Wu Xue Bian. And, according to Song Shi, it said: “Zhu Nian Guo, a country that haven’t interacted with China from ancient time, is said to be distanced from Guang Zhou about more than 410 thousand li if travelling by boat.” Besides, western countries and other small countries oversea, such as Peng Heng, Lu Song, A Lu Gan, and Ba Li, do not interact with China. How could we say the countries that were unrecorded into books are limited? | ||

+ | 南番國人。萬曆癸卯年間。隨倭舶漂抵我境。見其人。眉與上睫通爲一。髯似羊鬚。其率人面漆黑。形狀尤醜怪。蓋海鬼類也。言語不通。因倭譯問。則國在海中。距中國八萬里。倭人以地多珍寶。故往來通商。離本土八年。方到此云。蓋絶國也。 | ||

+ | In the year ''gyeyu'' during the Wanli era, a man from the Southern Barbarian State [Holland] followed the Japanese ships and drifted to our land. I saw the man. His eyebrows and eyelashes were connected into one, and his beard looked like a goat’s. His man’s complexion was pitch-black. His outlook was very ugly and strange. Perhaps he was a kind of sea devil. Unable to communicate with them, I asked questions by means of a Japanese man’s interpretation. [He replied that] his country was located in the midst of the sea and 80,000 ''li'' away from China. Because there are lots of precious treasure in the land, the Japanese visit and trade there. They say that it takes eight years to get there from their country. Probably it must be a remote isolated country. | ||

+ | Yeong'gyeoli State [England] is located at the far west in the outer ocean. The day is extremely long. The night lasts only until the second watch (11 pm to 1 am) and soon the day breaks. As for their custom, they eat only barley powder (flour), wear leather and fur clothes, and take a ship as a house. They build a ship with four folds of wood, clad with pieces of iron within and without. They fix tens of masts on the ship and install a wind-generator [wind turbine] at the stern. As for anchor ropes, they use cables made of hundreds of iron-chains, so their ships are not wrecked in the face of storm waves. The ships use cannons for wars and show up to raid. Many countries in the sea do not dare to confront them. In recent years, a ship drifted from Japan to Heung’yang area [modern Goheung in South Jeolla province]. The ship was extremely high and huge like a multistoried mansion. Our [Joseon] troops attacked it but was unable to destroy it and let it escape and go. Later I asked a Japanese envoy and came to know that they were the man of Yeong’gyeolli [English men]. According to my reading of the ''History of the Yuan Dynasty'', the distance between Gilligilsa and China is 25,000 ''li''. The day is long and the night is short [in England]. England was called Goliganguk during the Tang period. The sound of ''gyeolli'' is similar to ''gilli'' or ''golli'' each other, so I guess they refer to this England. | ||

+ | According to my reading of the ''History of the Tang Dynasty'', Goligan [England] is located in the north of the Han Sea [Lake Baikal]. In the land, the day is long and the night is short. After the sunset, the sky is [still] glow. When the time passes for a sheep’s shoulder bone to be properly boiled and cooked, the sun rises again. In the early Tang era, it was called Gyeolgol. Zhuzi [Zhu Xi, 1130-1200] said, “This land is the tip of the earth. The sun goes underground but has no place to hide. Therefore, it is always bright. Until the sun rises from the east and breaks the day, there are few places to conceal the passage of the sun.”<ref> This quotation is an extract from chapter one of the ''Zhuzi Yulei'' 朱子語類 (''Classified Conversation of Zhu Xi'').</ref> | ||

+ | Gurapa [European] country is also called Great Western Country. There is a man called Imadu [Matteo Ricci, 1552-1610] who sailed the sea for eight years and crossed over 80,000 ''li'' in the face of wind and waves. He stayed at East Wol (Gwangdong) over ten years. He wrote the ''True Meaning of the Lord of Heaven'' (''Tianzhu Shiyi'' 天主實義) in two volumes. First of all, he states that the Lord of Heaven created the heaven and the earth in the beginning, and He rules over them with peace and care. Secondly, he discusses that the souls of humans are immortal and greatly different from those of beasts and birds. Thirdly, he distinguishes the error of the Six Paths of Reincarnation<ref> The Six Paths of Reincarnation 輪廻六道 are a Buddhist concept of the cycle of death and rebirth stemming from Hindu philosophies. Each of these paths represents one of the realms a being is reborn into after death, determined by the accumulated karma of their past life.</ref> from the judgment of Heaven and Hell. Lastly, he argues that human nature is originally good and we should obey the Lord of Heaven’s will. In their custom, they call their king Edifying Emperor 敎化皇.<ref> Matteo Ricci was born in Macerata, part of the Papal States, and today a city in the Italian region of Marche.</ref> He does not take a wife, so does not have an heir. [Instead,] a worthy man is selected and enthroned [after him]. In addition, they cherish the friendship in their custom and do not save money for themselves. He [Ricci] wrote the ''Essay on Friendship''. Jiao Hong (焦竑, 1540-1620) said, “Mr. Imadu from the Western region says ‘My friend is another I.’ This word is amazingly marvelous.” The episode is described in detail in the ''Sequel to Hearsay'' (''Xu er tan'' 續耳譚). | ||

Introduction
自賣 was a prevalent method for the impoverished commoners to obtain subsistence in the extreme situation of famine during the late Choson period. This was called 口活’
한성부 향도꾼은 동내 주민 중심의 인적 구성을 벗어나 이웃 동내, 나아가 한성부 전체를 지역적 기반으로 하는 대형 조직으로 변모하였다 했다. 또한 노비의 입계를 허락하지 않는 가문은 계원들 다수가 그 집에 쳐들어가 쌍욕을 해대는가 하면 그 집 처녀를 보쌈을 해와 형제들끼리 나누어 가질 정도였다. 이같은 무리한 행위에도 불구하도 계원의 세력이 너무나 강해 항의조차 못할 정도였다. 향도계 계원들의 숫자는 많은 경우 수 백명에 달했고 적은 계일지라도 100 여명에 이르렀다.
첫째, 그들의 상전 등 주위 양반들과 경제적 이해관계가 직접적이지 않았기 때문이었다. 주의 상전이나 양반들의 논밭을 경작하는 노비, 또는 하층민이라면 감히 토지소유주의 이해에 반하는 행위를 하지 못했을 것이다. 둘째, 익명성이 보장되고 회합이 용이한 도회지에서 활동했다는 점이다. 17세기 중엽 서울은 인구가 많을 뿐 아니라 유동 인구, 특히 도망 노비, 소작인들이 대거 이동함으로써 향도계원의 불법 혹은 도덕적 비난으로부터 일정부분 익명성을 보장받을 수 있었던 것이다.
