How did early explorers began to explore the world?

=How Exploration Began==Exploration began because the Europeans were always busy trading their goods to get what they mostly wanted like gold, jewels, silk, perfumes, and spices. They used the spices to hide the bad and spoiled taste of bad meat!==Pretty soon the prices of the goods were raised to there highest price. The Europeans were to pay the prices. Then the trades with Asia stopped! This closed the route between Asia and Europe. Constantinople was a city and it was captured. That caused a lot of changes. An important change was that the lands ruled by warring nobles had become countries. Portugal, Spain, France, and England were now ruled by monarchs. Over years Europeans also made advances in technology. They had to learn to make fast ships. They made a new sail that allowed ships to go against the wind! In time they also made a better compass. Europeans now had a good reason to go out and find a new route to Asia.=
