The Yuan dynasty imposed strict racial segregation in China, but it allowed a great degree of religious freedom, except for Daoism.

Yuan dynasty was very strict in terms of racism since it almost had no tolerance for the people who married someone other than their own race. However, Yuan dynasty granted their people freedom to choose their own religion.

The Yuan dynasty was the empire or ruling dynasty of China created by Kublai Khan, leader of the Mongolian Borjigin clan.
