It was a great time period when the Eurasian supercontinent was buzzing with trade goods and knowledge transfer. It was the highlight of the times until the Black Death. If you take a look at the list on wiki, taken from Thomas T. Allsen - Culture and Conquest in Mongol Eurasia, p.6, great exchanges of people themselves with their variety of professions happened at this time and not just items of the traditional silk road. Was international commerce at this stage a better system than even under Tang administration?
