Answer:
More countries began to invest in expeditions to the Americas
Explanation:
The Spanish were the first Europeans that managed to conquer large territories in the New World. This led to the downfall of multiple civilizations, such as the Inca civilization. The Incas were a civilization that highly appreciated the gold, for religious purposes not for wealth, and they had it in abundance. The Spanish managed to get their hands on most of it, and big portion of it ended up back in Europe. The word quickly spread out, so the other nations wanted to get a piece of the gold from the New World, and that sparked lot of new expeditions from several different countries.
Sharecropping can be considered a legalized form of slavery because it contained many of the same elements.
Sharecropping is a system in which a landlord rents a plot of land to a tenant. During this era, the land would be owned by a white plantation owner (most of the time) and the person renting the land would be a former slave. This tenant would then be responsible for producing as much product as possible in order to give their payment to the land owner. This is similar to slavery, as the plantation owner benefits from another person's hard work.
Since the survival of the tenant depends on how well they farm, they are less likely to leave the land. This is similar to slavery, as leaving leaving a plantation greatly decreased a slaves chance of survival.
