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.

Levart [38]

Answer:

The correct answer is:

Historians believe that he is a myth rather than a real historical person.

Attila the Hun Attila the Hun (405-453), also sometimes known with the nickname as Attila the Scourge of God (Flagellum Dei) or simply Attila was the most powerful king of the Huns. He reigned over what was then Europe's largest empire, from 434 until his death. His empire stretched from Germany and the Netherlands to the Ural river and from the Danube River to Poland and Estonia. During his rule, he was among the most dire of the Western and Eastern Roman Empire's enemies: he invaded the Balkans twice and besieged Constantinople in the second invasion; he marched through Gaul (modern day France) as far as Orleans before being defeated at the Battle of Chalons; and he drove the western emperor Valentinian III from his capital at Ravenna in 452. He was regarded as sacker of cities. In the year 453 Attilla was at his wedding party,got drunk,hit his head,and chocked on his own blood this is how Attilla died a terrible and unfair death.
