History

6 0

With a few exceptions the world's 45 landlocked countries are poor. In spite of technological improvements in transport, landlocked developing countries continue to face structural challenges to accessing world markets. As a result, landlocked countries often lag behind their maritime neighbors in overall development and external trade.

Foe countries, easy and free access to waterways (navigable rivers and oceans) has always made trade more profitable because sea transportation can reach other markets faster and farther away. In trade, every extra day added to make goods reach their destination costs more money which is added to the retail price turning their purchase less attractive. Besides, the transportation of goods by land is much more limited than transportation by water and exposed to accidents and/or robbery along the road. On the other hand, ships have always been able to carry pretty heavy cargo in a shorter time while cutting down on the price of the goods sold in foreign markets.

How did the enlightenment affect societies during the 17th and 18th centuries​<br>PLEASE HURRY
Nitella [24]

Answer:

The correct answer is B

Explanation:

Before the Enlightenment, people were very accepting of traditional society, that was based on a religious order that determined the social structure of three estates or castes: the clergy, the nobles, and the commoners, this last category including both the merchants, the artisans, and the peasantry.

During and after the Enlightenment, the ideas of thinkers such as Voltaire, Rousseau, Diderot, Kant, and Hume, led many people to challenge those traditional ideas, and to seek for alternatives. The French Revolution, that caused the dissolution of the Ancient Regime, could be considered the most important manifestation of these ideas in Europe, while the American Revolution would represent the same in the Americas.
