<u>ANSWER:</u>

  • Exploration helped the countries to find new lands and new shipping and trading routes to further increase their global dominance over trade and commerce. Hence exploration was a major goal for the governments.

<u>EXPLANATION:</u>

  • During the 15th century, various countries and governments started exploring new lands and trading routes to grow their commercial business.
  • The British Empire, Spain, and Portugal began navigating and exploring across the world through the oceans and the government would pay these navigators to explore and discover new lands.
  • It was a challenge among the countries and their governments on who would find the best route for trading.
  • This marked a new age for navigating on the oceans and various new technologies such as the compass were invented during the age of exploration.
  • North America, India, Australia, and other notable countries were discovered as a new land by the navigators during this period.

Finding new routes to places would allow for faster trading. This had a few advantages. The less time voyage took, the less expensive it was. It also meant a quicker turn around, and less spoilage of certain goods

Varvara68 [4.7K]

Answer: Some geographic areas have obvious natural advantages that result in cluster formation. For example, proximity to a large port will attract exporting firms or areas rich in minerals will attract clusters of mining firms. In addition, there are three well-established reasons why firms choose locate in close proximity. The cost of transporting goods is reduced when firms are located close to their customers or suppliers. Input suppliers can exploit economies of scale in large clusters of downstream firms who, in turn, benefit from timely delivery and lower inventory costs.

Explanation: There are various types of clustering are that include:

^ Connectivity-based Clustering (Hierarchical clustering)

^ Centroids-based Clustering (Partitioning methods)
