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 type of evidence does Roosevelt use to support the claim that the United Nations must attain unanimity on the human rights
Reika [66]

Answer:

Roosevelt uses logical evidence by explaining that, once people have seen these freedoms, they will want them for themselves.

Explanation:

Eleanor Roosevelt's 1958 speech "The Struggle for Human Rights" was given in Paris to appeal to the members of the United Nations to vote for the Declaration of Human Rights. Her speech talks about the <em>"preservation of human rights" </em>and how it is important that individual rights be given enough importance as opposed to collective rights.

In her speech, Roosevelt talks about how unanimity is a difficult task to achieve, considering the <em>"different concepts of government and human rights"</em> that each government has. But at the same time, the struggle to achieve unanimity <em>"must be firm and patient." </em>She also reiterates the importance of such unity in the face of a desire to be free.

Thus, the correct answer is the second option.
