Answer:

Damages in tort

Explanation:

Damages are remedies that are monetary which are paid to a claimant to compensate for a loss or injury. To get the reward, the claimant must reveal that a foreseeable loss is caused by breach of duty. To be approved at law, the loss must be due to physical or mental injury or damage to property.

Damages are either classified as compensatory or punitive damages. Compensatory damages are also categorized into special damages and general damages. Special damages are property damage, loss of earnings and medical expenses, and general damages damages such as suffering and pain.

Which effect did Marco Polo’s The Travels of Marco Polo have on East Asia and Southeast Asia?
ElenaW [278]

Venetian explorer, Marco Polo, told his cellmate during his imprisonment after the Venetian-Genoese War about his travels to the Far East. These accounts became a book , later entitled "The Travels of Marco Polo" which was influential in sparking people's curiosity of the East.

The first impact  was that Marco Polo was able to bring elements of Western culture to the East and Eastern culture back to the West. Because of his exploration Indonesia, Mongolia, Sri Lanka, and India, China began to experience Western culture.  

Next, Marco Polo's interactions with Mongolian emperor Kublai Khan led to commercial exchange with Western merchants who were now arriving in China. This increased Chinese's growth as a civilization.

The Silk Road, an easier route to travel around the Gobi Desert,  traced by the Polos had a huge effect  in the future of European and Chinese interaction. It would prove to be a more effective route than to sail the oceans to China.
