CAUSES OF European EXPLORATION • Renaissance Spirit • Explore unknown, test limits of human ability • 3G’s • God: Spread Christianity • Gold: Acquire wealth & resources • Glory: Power!
Focus: God • Protestant Reformation- Reform/expose the Catholic Church • Martin Luther (1517) • 95 Theses • Indulgences • Expose corruption of Catholic Church
CAUSES OF EXPLORATION- Navigational Technology • Caravel- improved ship • Small, easy to maneuver • Astrolabe- determine time and latitude • Magnetic Compass • Improved Maps (accuracy) • … WHY WOULD IMPROVED TECHNOLOGY BE A CAUSE FOR EXPLORATION?
Powerhouses of Exploration • France • Spain • Conquistador- Spanish conqueror • Encomienda System- Spanish at top; class systems to establish dominance (EFFECT) • Britain • Portugal
Key Explorers • Prince Henry- Navigation School, Portugal • “Age of Discovery”, Atlantic slave trade • Bartholomeu Dias- Cape of Good Hope (1488) • Christopher Columbus- Americas (1492) • Ferdinand Magellan- Circumnavigation (1519-1522) • Circumnavigation- Sail COMPLETELY around the world • Hernando Cortez- Aztec defeat (1521) • Conquistador! • Francisco Pizarro- Inca defeat (1532)
Effects of Exploration • Colonies in America • Expansion of wealth and power • Sea trade routes • Slave trade expanded • Native American Conflict
EFFECTS OF EXPLORATION- SEA TRADE ROUTES Columbian Exchange widespread transfer of plants, animals, culture, human populations, technology, and ideas between the Old and New World
EFFECTS OF EXPLORATION- SEA TRADE ROUTES Triangular Trade England to Africa Africa to the Americas Americas back to England Middle Passage journey undertaken by slave ships from West Africa to the West Indies
Effects of exploration- sea trade routes the middle passage • They were from different countries and different ethnic groups. They spoke different languages. Many had never seen the sea before, let alone been on a ship. They had no knowledge of where they were going or what awaited them there. • The slaves were packed below the decks of the ship. The men were usually shackled together in pairs using leg irons, or shackles. The men were considered dangerous, as they were mostly young and strong and likely to turn on their captors if the opportunity arose. People were packed so close that they could not get to the toilet buckets, and so lay in their own filth. Seasickness, heat and lack of air all contributed to the terrible smell. These conditions also encouraged disease, particularly fever and the ‘bloody flux’ or gastroenteritis (a serious stomach bug). The voyage usually took six to eight weeks, but bad weather could increase this to 13 weeks or more. • Olaudah Equiano wrote, “The shrieks of the women and the groans of the dying, rendered the whole a scene of horror almost inconceivable.” For many on the terrible crossing, death was preferable to the unknown fate awaiting them. • The average losses were between 10 and 20%, through sickness, suicide and even murder at the hands of the slave crew and captains. 10% means over 1,000,000 Africans died on board the ships, 20% represents over 2,000,000 deaths.
EFFECTS OF EXPLORATION- INCREASED WEALTH/POWER • MERCANTILISM… essentially WEALTH = POWER • Country needed to have more exports than imports • Establish colonies to have access to raw materials • Large population, limited wants
