The previous period before 1648 to 1815, can be considered to be around 1500 to 1648.
This period was characterized by the growing populations of Europe, the discovery of nearby lands, improvement in trading activities among the European countries, and the accumulation of wealth, among others.
Thus, from 1648 to 1815, Europe tried to expand its trading activities and diversify its population by moving towards the west to get more gold and land resources.
This leads to the formation of imperialism of Europe in America between 1648 to, 1815 thereby continuing their previous expansion.
Hence, in this case, it is concluded that the expansion of European commerce between 1648 and 1815 represents continuity from the previous period in many ways.
