The Portuguese explored Africa and one of their explorers(was it Dias or Vasco de Gama?) went over the tip. Now Portugal had been wanting to find India and now they had. Before finding the trade route, spices and goods from India came through Italy and by time it got to Spain or Portugal it had become incredibly expensive.
Commercial expansion was supported by technical improvements in seafaring, and from about 1450 explorations were made, first to Africa, then to the Asia and the New WorldBy the mid-16th cent. The Asia carrying trade had been wrestled from the Arabs, and Eastern goods poured into Europe.
The Age of Exploration brought an economic prospertity to the nations that were involved in it. It allowed more goods to be used by more people at cheaper prices. The principles of mercantilism was adopted and quickened commercial activity brought economic specialization, thus leading to the transformations in production associated with modern capitalism. By 1700, it set the stage for the Industrial Revolution.

Well, in north America most of them were killed by the pioners, others relegated to reserves which actually are like zoos.
In latin America, where the prehispanic civilizations were more advanced, the warrior and political classes were killed, and the peasants were somehow forced to work for the europeans. The system was named by the Spanish word "Encomiendas". That meant that an Spanish was entitled to hold certain portion of land and have the right to use the work of the natives of such land. In exchange, such Spanish should take care of the natives and teach them the catholic religion which was the religion of the spanish crown.
After many generations, Spanish and natives mixed creating the "mestizo".
Nowadays a lot of comunities of original American natives exist through all latin america.

nicely i'm in ordinary terms 2d era in u.s. with my relatives, my relatives did no longer do something to the community human beings. yet on your statements needless to say in kindergarten you do no longer study approximately slaughter or the small print of warfare they're somewhat no longer at an age to assessment or understand, as you pronounced. If i found out my youngster's kindergarten instructor develop into going into slaughter information with my baby i could be in penal complex for attack. for sure college teachings are diverse in factors as a results of fact each and every public college I easily have long gone to and believe me i've got moved plenty in my existence has taught me the community American section and what monsters maximum white all of us is. Heck one college even went into excruciating information approximately Japans section and what the bombing did to them and back how terrible white all of us is. So possibly you only bypass to a school that loves to shelter you adult adult males from fact. Oh as a facet word that stuff surpassed off in the previous and you're able to be able to't replace the previous you may in ordinary terms use it to repair the destiny. formerly you bypass all one sided although the two sides did tousled issues no longer in ordinary terms one. besides the small pox element each and every thing you listed develop into accomplished by way of the two.

they were pushed by the new settlers farther and farther east, known as the trail of tears because so many of them died due to diseases, and murder.
