7 0

When Columbus discovered the New World, he was in need of more money to continue his explorations. He captured many slaves and sold them in Spain. Enslavement was viewed to be good for the country's economy. Labor was gotten for free. When more Spanish conquerors went to America, many American Indians were used to carry their shipments back and forth their territory and ships. The Spaniards justified their actions by saying that the Indians were cannibals and deserved to be punished through enslavement.

Ket [755]

Perhaps the most significant technological advance during World War I was the improvement of the machine gun, a weapon originally developed by an American, Hiram Maxim. They also developed air-cooled machine guns for airplanes and improved those used on the ground, making them lighter and easier to move. The planning and conduct of war in 1914 were crucially influenced by the invention of new weapons and the improvement of existing types since the Franco-German War of 1870–71. The chief developments of the intervening period had been the machine gun and the rapid-fire field artillery gun.
