How and why in the 16th and 17th century did a relatively small group of Eurasian land mass gain control of the major sea-lanes of the world?
In the 16th and 17th centuries, a relatively small group of European powers, particularly Spain, Portugal, the Netherlands, and England, gained control of major sea-lanes through advancements in navigation, shipbuilding, and maritime technology. They sought to expand trade, access valuable resources, and spread Christianity, which motivated overseas exploration and colonization. The establishment of powerful navies and strategic alliances allowed these nations to dominate key trade routes and establish colonial empires, effectively controlling global commerce and maritime logistics. This period marked the beginning of European maritime supremacy, reshaping global trade dynamics and international relations.
