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.

Answer:

1.The land would generate great wealth if exploited.

2.Europeans wanted Asian goods, which were difficult to obtain because the Mongol Empire made trade more dangerous. Europeans wanted goods for the opportunity to make a large profit using sea-based trade routes.

3.Portugal set up trade posts throughout Africa, the Indian Ocean, and Southeast Asia. Military posts also supported Portuguese naval bases.

4.Russia expanded by land rather than water (maritime) expansion. Russia gained control over Mongol Khanates and pushed into Siberia in search for fur for trade.

provide one piece of evidence to compare the level of the incas’ and one other culture’s investments in public works projects
belka [17]

In order to provide a piece of evidence to compare the level of the Incas’ and Maya culture’s investments in public works projects, you can mention the following:

As regards Incas' architecture: Qollqa were stone houses situated on hillsides. They had drainage canals in order to keep the interior dry. Another example can be Machu Picchu that was a settlement like a fortress (located in the High Andes of Perú)

As regards Mayas' architecture: its region consisted of the northern lowlands, their pyramids relied on intricately carved stone. They built temples like 'The Temple of the Cross at Palenque. Usually, their structures were covered with stucco to smooth imperfections. Besides, their structures were aligned so as to have an astronomical observation.
