When the Ottoman Empire cut off European access to land routes in the 15th and 16th centuries, it spurred European nations to seek alternative trade routes to Asia, leading to the Age of Exploration. This resulted in expeditions by explorers like Christopher Columbus and Vasco da Gama, who sought direct sea routes to India and the East Indies. The search for new trade paths ultimately contributed to the rise of maritime empires, the establishment of colonial territories, and significant shifts in global trade dynamics. Additionally, it intensified competition among European powers and accelerated advancements in navigation and shipbuilding technology.
