Exploration and Expansion (1 janv. 1400 – 1 janv. 1700)
Description:
Between 1400 and 1700, a new world opened up for Europe. Sailors set out on great voyages of discovery to lands that the people of Europe had not previously known existed. As news of the discoveries spread, countries scrambled to claim new lands, setting up colonies in hopes of gaining wealth and power. Once colonies were established, ships cressed the Atalntic in both directions laden with goods of all kinds.Ajouté au bande de temps:
