The power of the city of Florence
Germany first overseas empire
Hey! It's a good thing I learned this in 5th Grade lol. Okay, pretty sure the answer is longitude. Hope this helped!
Spain had settled in South America because of their search
for gold. France had settled in the some parts of North America. They were very
interested in fur trapping and trade with the Native Americans. There was a
large French population in Virginia. Britain had settled in South America,
thinking that they could find gold, just like the Spanish had thought. However,
they ended up setting a tobacco plantation in the South because of the
nonexistence of gold.
