The invention of compass and astrolabe contributed in a great way for the European expansion. These discoveries helped the Europeans to sail for unknown waters and reach the lands that have never been reached before. before the discovery of the compass and the astrolabe, the explorations were mostly limited along the shoreline and rarely would anybody try to venture into the unknown oceans. These discoveries allowed the navigators to locate their positions by watching the position of the sun and the stars.

People who believe that they will be caught if they commit crime are the ones most likely to be deterred from committing crimina
Vika [28.1K]

Answer:

certainty of punishment                                      

Explanation:

In simple words,Certainness of penalty effectively means that deterrence occurs if a criminal offence is performed. Therefore, to discourage criminals their penalty must be quick. This concept is based on the theory that Too custodial sentence is unfair, and unsevere punishment does not dissuade offenders from committing crimes.  

Certainness has a larger effect on prevention than penalty intensity. Analysis underlines the much more important role which certainty serves in prevention than intensity— it is the likelihood about being captured that dissuades an individual from breaking the law, not really the apprehension of becoming prosecuted or the magnitude of the penalty.
