The motivation for Prince Henry "The Navigator" of Portugal to engage in the exploration of maritime routes circumnavigating (sailing around) Africa and from then sailing on to Asia was to engage in direct trade with Indian merchants to buy spices, highly valuable in Europe, and avoid the use of a middleman (usually, Arab merchants). Prior to 1453, Constantinople had been the connecting hub between goods made in the West and the East, until the city was conquered by the Ottoman Turks who closed all trade with the West. Given Portugal's excellent geographical position as a starting point for navigation, Henry saw the opportunity to reach the continent where the most fabled, precious and coveted goods were produced and trade. Asia.

Document A The Battle of the Yarmuk full answers
natita [175]

Answer:

Explanation:

The Battle of Yarmouk was a major battle between the army of the Byzantine Empire and the Muslim forces of the Rashidun Caliphate. The battle consisted of a series of engagements that lasted for six days in August 636, near the Yarmouk River, along what are now the borders of Syria–Jordan and Syria–Israel, east of the Sea of Galilee. The result of the battle was a complete Muslim victory that ended Byzantine rule in Syria. The Battle of Yarmouk is regarded as one of the most decisive battles in military history,[7][8] and it marked the first great wave of early Muslim conquests after the death of Muhammad, heralding the rapid advance of Islam into the then-Christian Levant.

To check the Arab advance and to recover lost territory, Emperor Heraclius had sent a massive expedition to the Levant in May 636. As the Byzantine army approached, the Arabs tactically withdrew from Syria and regrouped all their forces at the Yarmouk plains close to the Arabian Peninsula, where they were reinforced and defeated the numerically superior Byzantine army. The battle is Khalid ibn al-Walid's greatest military victory and cemented his reputation as one of the greatest tacticians and cavalry commanders in history.[9]
