Answer:

global market opportunities

Explanation:

Most European explorers of the 1400s, like Columbus or Ferdinand Magellan, were sailors working either for private merchant companies, or for nation states seeking new trade opportunities.

For example, Columbus sailed west looking for a new sea route from Europe to Asia, since communications between the two continents had been made difficult by Ottoman dominance over the Eastern Mediterranean, and Persian dominance over Central Asia. Columbus, in fact, died without having realized that he had landed in the Americas.

Explanation:

Hope on of these helps sorry if none of them do

Answer: Weaponry also changed significantly during the Civil War. The most lethal change during the Civil War was the introduction of rifling to muskets. However, a bullet from an aimed rifled musket could hit a soldier more than 1,300 meters away. This drastically changed the nature of warfare to the advantage of defenders.

Historians have described the Civil War as both a modern and a total war – modern for its use of technology, administrative efficiency, and public relations as tools of war, and total in its character as an all-consuming ideological crusade

The Civil War is often called the first modern war. For the first time, mass armies confronted each other wielding weapons created by the industrial revolution. The resulting casualties dwarfed anything in the American experience. More than 600,000 men died, the equivalent in today's population of 5 million
