It demonstrates that many riches come into Europe from the Age of Exploration. This increase in wealth and European power, caused by the Age of Exploration, was an accomplishment that set off the Renaissance. Document nine strengthens this argument by showing all the negative coming to the Americas while the great supplies are traveling to Europe. In contrast to document six, document nine has many of the diseases and shows that Europe is benefiting the most in this trade network. Europe is acquiring wealth from the exploration causing the wealth and power of Europe.
The step he made when traveling with his crew to the Americas changed the world that they lived in for good. The opportunities in America advanced Europe's society because they had new cultures to trade with and a variety of resources that would improve it's economy. Columbus’ journey provided a unique opportunity of exposure to new people, which helped the peoples of Europe to become more cultured. Because of the new sea routes discovered, trade could expand to farther places. The Europeans were making money off of cash crops planted in the fertile land, which helped them to become more powerful.
Regardless of what his motive was this was a big deal for several Christians living in Europe at this time. Constantine conversion to Christianity allowed people to the religion to be able to spread throughout Europe even after the fall
The English prospered from this because it meant that had excluded those raw materials from trade with other countries. This act also then led to triangular trade which allowed for trade between Europe, Africa and America. The triangular trade was a system in which slaves, crops and manufactured goods were traded. It was implemented to rectify trade imbalances between regions.
The necessity for this better network to move goods manifested itself in this desire for improvement. After the War of 1812, demand increased for better roads and canals to expedite the transport of goods across the nation (Dudley). This improved package of commerce and transportation directly contradicted the attitude of Agrarian Republicans like Jefferson who hoped that industrialization would not dominate America or its politics, fearing the inevitable shift of the country into continuous international turmoil. Jefferson’s fear was realized as nationalism manifested itself in manufacturing, with patriotic Americans taking pride in the factories that had recently mushroomed forth (Dudley). After the war, many Americans felt differently due to the war’s stimulative effect on the economy.
The European exploration happened due to God, glory, gold, and advanced technology. God led to exploration because they wanted to spread Christianity. Glory led to exploration because they wanted to be know as an explorer. Gold led to exploration because they wanted to trade with other countries to get money in return for valuable items or get valuable items in return for money. But the most influential thing that led to exploration was advanced technology.
By the end of the 15th century, the compass improved a lot. Sailors used compasses to find their bearing, or direction of travel. The Printing press helped spread scientific discoveries and it was faster than writing by hand. The Cartography of maps improved and became more accurate as the sailors explored and found the flaws in the old maps. Better maps helped explorers by making navigation
This urge for territorial acquisitions pushed the governments to acquire new advances in shipbuilding and navigation, hence began the expeditions. The Europeans powers began to strive for control of the New World almost immediately after Christopher Columbus announced the earth earth-shattering of the discovery of the New World in 1492. During the missionary duty the Spanish and
While the Filipinos sought independence after being released from Spain, the U.S. perceived the nation as incompetent. William McKinley, the 25th President of the United States, in his decision on the Philippines mentions that they are ill-equipped to run a self-government and any attempt to do so will cause misfortune in the region, thus, the United States has no option but to rule over the Philippines. This concept of racial uplift influenced the treatment of Filipino citizens during and after the war, as Shi states the blatant racism and torture they experienced during the three years of war and after hindered any peaceful bonds between the two nations. After the Filipino resistance was reduced, the United States acquired the Philippines to mark its next bitter, controlling relationship with a foreign
Opportunity overpowers the negative factor of the architecture and locomotives being unfriendly to the environment. Another positive factor that outdoes the negative is the advantages of mass production. In the article about nineteenth century architecture,“While the battle of styles was engaging the energies of the architects, great changes were introduced in industry. Mass production became possible in glass, iron and later steel” (19th Century Architecture). Mass production came about in the early 20th century by way of Henry

Both articles were well written and provide an overview of piracy as well as an argument for people’s motive for becoming pirates. In my opinion, Rediker’s argument was stronger than Bialuschewski’s as he went more in depth into the issue or piracy as well as their way of life. Redikers’ use of primary sources and quotations also helped to validate his argument. Marcus Rediker’s Article Analysis: Marcus Rediker’s main argument throughout the article was that piracy was an attractive life for many people during the 1700’s. He argues that there were several motivations to becoming a pirate, including the hope of attaining wealth, escaping poor living conditions, the freedom of choice, and escaping previous lives.1
The achievement of this travel justified that the colonies can be marketed for England 's manufactured goods. "England saw the colonies as a way to sell more goods and resources to other countries."

Spanish conquers never considered colonize California because the peninsula did not fulfill their ambitions. The expedition leaded by Juan Rodriguez Cabrillo in 1542 was just the beginning of future expeditions to the northwest of America; in this occasion, Cabrillo sail around the Baja and proclaimed the land as Spain propriety. One inconvenient found in Cabrillo's exploration was the lack of gold and precious metals in California. Also, after this voyage, the Spanish conquers were discouraged to explore California for the long and perilous journeys, where most of the sailors died due to food shortage and, coupled with this, the spread of diseases. Another reason to not colonized California was that the Spaniards were not interested in establish
