Answer:

The main goal of the Age of Exploration was to find a shorter route to get to the Indie Islands for their spice trade, which was at that time, very valuable and the silk road was too long and expensive.

Explanation:

The Portuguese traders decided that since the land route was not effective enough to get control over the spice trade in Asia, they decided to explore other trade routes whereby they would arrive at the East Indies faster without the heavy charges they were given when using the Silk Road. They had passed by the Cape Verde islands and it took them a while to understand the strong wave currents at the Golf Of Guinea before they would find a way to pass by it unharmed to reach Africa and the spice trade.

The Cape of Good Hope was not difficult to pass, but the Benguela Current flowing in a clock-wise direction had caused a lot of trouble for the traders passing by. In the end, they realised that they could apply the same method of overcoming the Canary Current using Volta do mar for the Benguela Current. This was the greatest achievement for the traders who went through the Age of Exploration and wanted to find a shorter route to get to the spice islands.

kkurt [141]

This excerpt explains why the Articles of Confederation needed to be fixed or replaced with a different constitution. The excerpt goes over several different flaws in the Articles of Confederation including:
1) No national courts to solve issues between individuals from different states.

2) No consistency in laws- In other words, states got to interpret the laws whatever way they wanted.

3) No way to enforce court rulings from state to state.

These weaknesses, plus others, resulted in the need for a new constitution. The US Constitution replaces the Articles of Confederation and is still what we follow today.

iren2701 [21]

Answer:

On the support of victims of human rights violation, the law should clearly state and express the repercussions of violating human rights. The citizen on the other hand should be well versed with human rights and should report any violator of human rights to the relevant authorities for immediate action to be taken. The community can mobilize and make aware the people of their rights and also allow any victim of human rights violations to face the law and seek justice.
