<em>Elizabeth</em> <em>the First</em> promoted the English Empire by sponsoring the English Exploration.
A) How much is the fair to soul? Or How much is the air to soil? ( this doesn’t make sense )
B) May I have some ice cream please?
Europeans didn't use maritime routes before the age of exploration because they thought that Muslims controlling Portugal and Spain made maritime routes unsafe together with the fact that they didn't have the required transportation and navigation skills to travel.
Hope this helped! :)
