Steam powered boats are different than sailboats because steamboats were faster

Sail boats got their power from the wind, so if you went sailing on a day with little wind, you would have a hard time sailing. On the other hand, steam-powered ships had boilers and the steam that evaporated powered the ship. Steam-powered vessels were faster than sail boats, but they were also more dangerous because the boilers were at risk of blowing up.

How did many countries provide for additional raw materials and foodstuffs?
Vadim26 [7]

New trade routes were established to Asia, due to the Crusades. People wanted to avoid the established trade routes going through the Mediterranean, because prices were very high and it was dangerous.

Many countries established colonies and trading posts to provide for additional raw materials and foodstuffs.

Trading posts were free-trade zones and were called "factories". Western Europe established trading posts in Asia, Africa, and the Americas during the 1500's. These trading posts were not only to sell goods and warehouse their inventory, but it also served as the headquarters for defense.
