15. Causes of European Exploration# 1-Increase Trade (new markets, natural resources, & trade routes) • As a result of the Crusades, the Europeans developed a taste for spicesand other luxury goods from Asia. • Muslim traders carried these goods to the eastern Mediterranean, where they sold them to Venetian merchants who then brought them to Europe. • The goods were very expensive since various middlemen involved all made a profit. • European countries wanted to establish direct sea routes to Asia so they could reduce costs and gain better access to Asian goods.

16. Causes of European Exploration# 2-Increase Political and Military Power (new lands & wealth) • Increased trade and commerce would help European states accumulate wealth and pay for larger, more powerful armies. • Exploration offered European states the chance to form overseas empires, thus adding to their wealth and power.

As a result their population increased.

22.
