During the exploration years, conquering armies primarily used firearms, such as muskets and cannons, which provided significant advantages in firepower over indigenous forces. Additionally, swords and pikes were common melee weapons for close combat. The introduction of gunpowder weaponry allowed European powers to dominate many regions, often leading to the rapid subjugation of local populations. Furthermore, technological advancements, including naval artillery on ships, facilitated exploration and conquest across oceans.
