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.

The Guadalcanal campaign lasted for months and American troops fought through swampy marshes and took heavy casualties from the Japanese, as the Japanese were very unlike other troops, in which they did not know the art of surrendering, and was forced to fight to the death for the "Rising Sun". As there were swampy marshes on the island, tropical diseases was rampant, as well as troop movements were slowed to a crawl.

Alchen [17]
“Owe my soul to the company store”

Buying on credit, from employer, means you will likely fall into a cycle of debt to one supplier. Limiting your ability to make purchases from other vendors.

Or to even look for work in another town/move on. Until you pay of your recurring debts, employer effectively owns you!!

Companies in say mining towns, owned or controlled every business from butcher shop, general stores, the bank etc. A monopoly.
