What advantages did the Portuguese have in the age of exploration

History
2 answers:
True [87]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

The Portuguese had an unrivaled knowledge of sailing conditions in the Atlantic and halfway down the African coast. There had been developments in ship design, rigging, and seamanship which made it possible to contemplate long-distance trips in stormier seas than the Venetians encountered in the Mediterranean. Under the leadership of Prince Henry the Navigator, Portugal took the principal role during most of the fifteenth century in searching for a route to Asia by sailing south around Africa. In the process, the Portuguese accumulated a wealth of knowledge about navigation and the geography of the Atlantic Ocean.

What was the impact of the Napoleonic Code?
horsena [70]

The development of the Napoleonic Code was a fundamental change in the nature of the civil law system, making laws clearer and more accessible. It also superseded the former conflict between royal legislative power and, particularly in the final years before the Revolution, protests by judges representing views and privileges of the social classes to which they belonged. Such conflict led the Revolutionaries to take a negative view of judges making law.

During the 19th century, the Napoleonic Code was voluntarily adopted in a number of European and Latin American countries, either in the form of simple translation or with considerable modifications.
