Why did fifteenth-century Europeans search for a sea route to Asia? Choose all answers that are correct.

History

Correct items to choose:

  • a. Europeans had begun to demand valuable goods such as silk and spices that could only be found in Asia.
  • d. The Ottoman Turks controlled the Silk Road, which was the main land route from Europe through the Middle East to Asia.

The Ottoman Turks were involved in trade and merchant traffic themselves, and they often charged high rates for travel through the territories they now controlled.  Also, as religious and cultural opposites, European Christian culture and Islamic culture often came into conflict. So finding an alternate route was appealing to Europeans who sponsored exploration by sea, especially as demand for goods from Asia increased in Europe.  The Europeans also had goods to exchange in Asia, such as animal skins and furs ... and also slaves.  There wasn't really a market of "manufactured goods" back in the 15th century, since we're in pre-industrial times in that era.

During the fifteenth-century, Europeans weren't just out to search for a sea route to Asia, they had to search for one since the Ottoman Turks controlled the Silk Road, which was the main land route from Europe through the Middle East to Asia. Europeans had began to demand valuable goods such as silk and spices that could only be found in Asia since it has been quite useful to their daily living. Of course, in turn, European merchants had manufactured goods to sell in Asia for those valuable goods such as silk and spices, but when the land route wasn't available and safe anymore, they had to search for sea routes.

In North America, temperatures get warmer towards the north.<br> True or false
Ugo [173]

Answer: False

Explanation:

As one approaches the North Pole, temperatures get colder and this is why countries like Iceland and Sweden are so cold.

This is the same in North America. North America is already north of the Equator so it is closer to the North Pole. As one goes further north therefore, they would be be getting closer to the North Pole and temperatures will get colder.

This is why Canada is so cold and the northern areas of the United States experiences such harsh winters.

At "show" trials during the great purge, suspects often?
Shkiper50 [21]
The question ask to state what the suspect do at show trials during the great purge, and base on my research and further investigation, I would say that they often admitted to fault even when they were completely innocent, in the hopes of receiving a reduced sentence or avoiding the labor camps in the East. I hope this would help
