Answer:

The correct answer is <u>C</u>: to divide the non-European world between Spain and Portugal.

Explanation:

The Treaty of Tordesillas is the contract signed in 1494 between Spain and Portugal on the division of the non-European colonies.

According to the law from 1481, all the territories south of the Canary Islands belonged to Portugal.

However, the Spaniards wanted to change that fact, as they claimed the right on every piece of land conquered by their man.

The new line of division was located on the 46th meridian, west of Greenwich. Under this treaty, all the land on the eastern side belonged to Portugal, while the western side belonged to Spain.
