Answer:

Prince Henry initiated a program of exploration to find a route to the East Indies, by sailing around Africa.

Explanation:

Portuguese exploration along African coasts was fundamental for finding a route to the West Indies in the 15th century, after the Turks had cut the traditional route to Asia after their conquest of Constantinopole.  In 1498, Vasco da Gama finally managed to circumnavigate Africa and arrived in India. The main goal of the Portuguese was to trade spices with India.

What is Nature ?,,,,,;)​
ycow [4]

Answer:

Nature, in the broadest sense, is the natural, physical, material world or universe. "Nature" can refer to the phenomena of the physical world, and also to life in general. The study of nature is a large, if not the only, part of science. The word nature is borrowed from the Old French nature and is derived from the Latin word natura, or "essential qualities, innate disposition", and in ancient times, literally meant "birth". In ancient philosophy, natura is mostly used as the Latin translation of the Greek word physis, which originally related to the intrinsic characteristics that plants, animals, and other features of the world develop of their own accord. The concept of nature as a whole, the physical universe, is one of several expansions of the original notion; During the advent of modern scientific method in the last several centuries, nature became the passive reality, organized and moved by divine laws. With the Industrial revolution, nature increasingly became seen as the part of reality deprived from intentional intervention: it was hence considered as sacred by some traditions (Rousseau, American transcendentalism) or a mere decorum for divine providence or human history (Hegel, Marx). However, a vitalist vision of nature, closer to the presocratic one, got reborn at the same time, especially after Charles Darwin.
