History

When finding a route from Africa to India, Portugal benefited in several ways. First, it established commercial colonies throughout the journey, on the African and Indian coasts, which gave it an economic power in the area superior to that of other European powers.

Second, it stopped paying taxes to Muslims for the use of a route that was not of their own, to become the owner of an alternative route.

Third, Portugal controled the spice traffic through this new route, which gave it great power in Europe .

What was the Renaissance and how did it bring about social, political and economic change to Europe and beyond?
sergey [27]

Answer:

During the Renaissance, the European economy grew dramatically, particularly in the area of trade. Developments such as population growth, improvements in banking, expanding trade routes, and new manufacturing systems led to an overall increase in commercial activity. The Renaissance was a fervent period of European cultural, artistic, political and economic “rebirth” following the Middle Ages. Generally described as taking place from the 14th century to the 17th century, the Renaissance promoted the rediscovery of classical philosophy, literature and art.

How do you think the english arrival impacted the lives of the native america​
KATRIN_1 [288]

I think English arrival would greatly impact Native Americans. That's just because Native Americans do not know the intentions of the English. I also think when they did know the intentions and how English wanted to use their land to make homes for themselves it impacted the Native Americans because they took their land and now they have to move else where.

Hope this helps.
