Current Case

The Age of Exploration officially took place in the early 15th century and ends until the 17th century. I was the when the Europeans started to exploring the world by sea, and they do this in order to search new goods and trading partners. First, Portuguese, then Spanish and eventually in the late 15th and early 16th centuries, British, French and Dutch ships set out to discover a world, a world they called the Other World, but eventually called the New World. A very significant example is Christopher Columbus. His initial purpose was to seek a direct route in India, but he found a new continent. Christopher Columbus was called as the discoverer of the Americas for generations. The history of the world has been changed by the accidental discovery of the Americas by Columbus.

The New World provided the canvas for religious freedom and the "American Dream" was almost embodied by the idea of the New World, that is, a fresh new start with rich resources, and mystery defined by ideas such as the Fountain of Youth as well. As these countries started to develop the exploration of the Americas, they made so much wealth from the Americas, enslaving the natives and looting the resources from the New World. The country that has benefited from the Americas for the most was Spain, as Columbus got the strong supporting from the king of Spain to set out for four times.

In my opinion, it is better to describe this period as the Age of Exploration. This significant movement made by many great people has made a big progress of our society. Even though when exploring the New World, Spanish treated the Native Indians in a very immoral way, but if the exploration did not take place in this period, but in another period, it could be a very different result.
