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 .

Alika [10]

Answer: C-focused on mining and agriculture

Explanation:

As the early Americans adhered to the Manifest Destiny and expanded to the Western part of the Continent, they engaged in different activities from their Northwestern counterparts.

The territories that the Americans took over to the west had fertile land for agriculture as well as rich mineral deposits which led to minning. This often put them at loggerheads with the Native Americans and differentiated them from the North Eastern states which were more industrialized.
