The revival of interest in trade with the East during the late Middle Ages was primarily driven by the desire for luxury goods such as spices, silk, and precious metals. The fall of Constantinople in 1453 disrupted traditional trade routes, prompting European powers to seek new pathways to Asia. Additionally, the rise of exploration and maritime technology, exemplified by figures like Christopher Columbus and Vasco da Gama, opened new avenues for direct trade with Eastern markets. This shift laid the groundwork for the Age of Exploration and the establishment of global trade networks.
