The fifteenth century
Until the end of the fifteenth century.
During the early fifteenth century, Portuguese sailors, driven by the desire for new trade routes and exploration, learned advanced navigation techniques, including the use of the astrolabe and magnetic compass. They also gained knowledge of wind patterns, currents, and coastal geography, which were essential for long-distance sea travel. This period marked the beginning of the Age of Discovery, as Portuguese explorers ventured along the West African coast and sought a sea route to India, significantly expanding European maritime knowledge. Additionally, they established trade relationships and explored new territories, leading to the eventual establishment of a global trading empire.
