In the early 1400s, Europeans knew little about the world beyond their continent. Many sailors would have heard stories of treacherous seas and sea monsters that destroyed any ship trying to cross the ocean. The sailors would hear these stories and become superstitious. They wouldn’t want to take a journey that they believed would most likely claim their lives.

On the other hand, maritime travel had the potential to earn sailors great wealth and prosperity. European nations wanted to find sea routes that would allow them to continue to trade with Asian merchants. If they were one of the first nations to do so, they would be able to increase their wealth and get the materials they needed to help their nations prosper.

arlik [135]

Answer:

The failure of the United States to enter a "Golden Age" after Johnson's 1964 victory and the passage of the Civil Rights Act was the Vietnam War.

Explanation:

The war in Vietnam was the longest in American history. It was an experience of failure and frustration for the country, constituting, without a doubt, the most serious failure of the United States in the Cold War.

There was a curious discrepancy in the external environment, where this war was a huge defeat for the country, and the internal environment, where the passage of the Civil Rights Act implied a social progress never seen before in the history of the United States.

The First World War was a cataclysm that disrupted countless lives. As a modern, total war, it brought men and women into active battle zones across Europe as well as in parts of Africa and Asia.
