Europeans contributed to exploration by developing advanced sailing technology such as the compass and improved navigational techniques, which enabled them to traverse longer distances across the seas. Additionally, European nations sponsored expeditions to discover new lands and establish trade routes, leading to the exploration and colonization of various regions around the world. This period of exploration also facilitated the exchange of cultural and scientific knowledge between Europe and other parts of the world.
Europeans went on voyages of exploration in the 15th and 16th centuries in search of new trade routes to Asia, new sources of wealth, and opportunities for spreading Christianity. These voyages were also driven by competition between European nations to expand their empires and influence around the world.
Exploration by Europeans had a significant impact on indigenous peoples, leading to colonization, displacement, and the spread of diseases that decimated populations. Indigenous cultures were often disrupted or destroyed, and native peoples were subjected to violence, exploitation, and forced assimilation into European ways of life.
Economic motives: Europeans sought new trade routes and sources of valuable commodities like spices, silk, and gold. Religious motives: They aimed to spread Christianity to new regions and convert indigenous populations. Technological advancements: Developments in navigation, shipbuilding, and cartography enabled Europeans to undertake longer and more successful voyages of exploration.
