The correct answer would be C.

In the 15th and 16th centuries, an increased number of vogages occurred all around the globe, to longer distances each time. This allowed the western civilization to stablish contact with the rest of Africa, America and Oceania.

The ability to travel further distances came because 2 things: the development of better ships, such as the galleon, and the advancements in navigation technology, which allowed the ship to reach it's destination even in months-long journeys across the ocean. The astrolable was one of such technological advances, allowing the sailors to identify the position of a celestial body in the sky, and triangulate the position of the ship from that information.

How would the world be different if the British had won the American Revolution? 3 sentases plz.
Dafna1 [17]

Answer:

 the British victory over their colonial rebels would have deprived  other potential revolutionary movements in the Spanish New World of  their inspiration. Instead of America going to war with Mexico in 1848,  it is likely that the expanded British New World Empire would have gone  to war against, and likely won against, the Spanish North American  colony. As part of the victory treaty, the Brits likely would have  claimed the same territory from the New World Spanish possessions which  the U.S. claimed from Mexico. However, by this point slavery would have been abolished, and therefore not a primary motivation of that war.
