<u>ANSWER:</u>

The explorers during the Columbus' time that is during the 1400s were largely looking for a sea route to Asia.

<u>EXPLANATION:</u>

  • Columbus was an "Italian explorer" who started his expedition in 1492 across the Atlantic Ocean in a hope to find a sea route to the Asian country of India.
  • He wanted to set up a spice trade with India as India was known for its variety and quality of spices at that time.
  • He explored to find a sea route from "Europe to Asia" but he was unsuccessful.
  • In fact during his four trips in '1492, 1493, 1498 and 1502' he did discover a route to the Americas, both North and South.
  • Another explorer of his time Vasco da Gama, a Portuguese explorer, also sailed to find a sea route to the Asian countries and in 1497 found one to India by travelling around "Africa’s Cape of Good Hope".

Answer:

Option 4. Political parties.

Explanation:

The presidential primaries (where the first candidates are elected) are a vital part of the US electoral process. And since nothing about them is laid on the constitution, it's up to the state governments to regulate them.

It's in this phase, where the political parties promote their candidates for the final elections, where only 2 candidates can participate.
