Explanation:

What drove European involvement in the world of Asian Commerce?

Place - Eurasia (global)

Time - 1450 to 1750 CE (Early Modern)

  • Desire for spices
  • More effective governing
  • Population growing again
  • More capitalist economy
  • Cities becoming international trade centers
  • Payment in gold/silver
  • Seeking direct access to gold/silver supply

We further elaborate Immediate motivation: desire for tropical spices - cinnamon, nutmeg, mace, cloves, and pepper - which were widely used for cooking, etc. Other products from Asia were in demand. Recovery of European civilization after Black Death. Growing western European societies - some had capitalist economies. Europeans resented Muslim monopoly on Indian trade (and Venetian).  Europe used silver to pay for Eastern goods.

To what extent did the Portuguese realize their goal the Indian Ocean?

Place - Portugal & Indian Ocean (Global)

Time - 1450 to 1750 CE (early modern)

The Portuguese found that their ships could outgun and outmaneuver competing naval forces in the Indian Ocean. Cannons for coastal contact. Europeans were crude and not as good as Asian goods. They established bases in many places in the Indian Ocean - "trading post empire" Tried to monopolize spice trade -required all merchant vessels to purchase a pass on cargoes. Failed - Carrying Asian goods to parts. Unable to sell European goods.

What were guilds, and why did they become controversial in the 18th century?
polet [3.4K]

Answer:

Guilds: they are medieval association of workers and craftsmen which ensure mutual aid and quality work in a particular production process in which they hold a monopoly acquired from the state.

During the mid-eighteenth century, they became the center of criticism by the followers of free trade who believed that restriction of work by the sate should be ended for a more competitive economic structure. By the mid-nineteenth century, the monopoly of guilds seemed to be disappeared.
