Middle Ages Far East

Another day...another list....

This one is for the Far East, middle ages (about 500 AD to 1500 AD). I know I'm fairly light on some of the countries so any suggestions are greatly appreciated. There just doesn't seem to be a whole lot for this time period in the Far East. And this list is for mostly elementary/middle school ages.
