History

Answer:

The purpose of the Great White Fleet was to demonstrate the military strength of the United States.

Explanation:

The Great White Fleet was a group of 16 battleships belonging to the United States Navy, which sailed around the world from December 16, 1907 to February 22, 1909 at the behest of President Theodore Roosevelt. The fleet was so named because the hulls - except for gold decorations on the bow - were painted white.

The fleet intended to demonstrate American naval power was impressive, but technically outdated. When the HMS Dreadnought was launched on February 10, 1906, the prototype for the next generation of battleships, the large combat ship, was already in use, and the first US dreadnought ship, the USS South Carolina, was just being equipped. The two oldest ships in the fleet, the USS Kearsarge and the USS Kentucky, were out of date and no longer fit for combat, and two other battleships, the USS Maine and the USS Alabama, had to be replaced in San Francisco due to technical difficulties.

How did Portugal gain an advantage in trading in comparison to other European nations?
mixer [17]

Answer:

The biggest changes were in rigging. At first they concentrated on lateen sails, then added a mix of square sails and lateen for deeper penetration into the South Atlantic, with further changes for the much longer route round the Cape. Knowledge of these techniques was protected by forbidding sales of ships to other countries. A third commercial advantage was Portugal's ability to absorb “new Christians” — Jewish merchants and scholars had played a significant role during Muslim rule.

Hope this helps! If so please mark brainliest and rate/heart to help my account if it did!!
