Yes, merchants traveled extensively, often covering long distances to trade goods. They moved between cities and regions, sometimes even across countries, to access markets for items like spices, textiles, and precious metals. This travel was vital for the exchange of goods and cultural ideas, contributing significantly to the development of trade networks throughout history.

What were two reasons why it was so dangerous for merchants to travel during the middle ages?

Travel was dangerous because the Roman army no longer existed to protect travelers and it took months/years to make a round trip to and from Europe to Asia. Merchants were attacked for their goods on the road, weather conditions halted travel or often killed people because of floods and snowstorms, the roads were not kept up and accidents happened going over mountain passes and on cliffs, and the cost finally kept merchants from going after goods.
