Editor's Notes

  1. -Expansion of sailing in the 15th century was growing along with the curiosity to explore the rest of the worldPrince Henry “the navigator” was Portuguese prince who created the first ship school. This school taught males how to navigate and sail a boat.In 1453 the turkish empire cut off all land routes to Asia, therefore not cutting off all spice supply to Europe.1488 Diaz sailed around the “Cape of Storms”which is the southern tip of Africa. This route to Asia was long and very tretchorous. Which lead to nations looking for an alternate route.
  2. Santa Maria, The Pinta, and the Nina were the three ships in the voyage Christopher Columbus lead to discover a new route to IndiaHe was sent by Spain as a “Conquistador” Bahamas, Cuba, Hispaniola, Dominica, Guadeloupe, Puerto Rico and Jamaica ware what Columbus found instead.
  3. Under the commision of Henry VII of EnglandFirst europen encounter with the mainland of North America since the Vikings in Vinland in the 11th centuryLanded on the island of Newfoundland
  4. -Vicente Yáñez Pinzón discoversBrazil at a cape he names "Santa Maria de la Consolación"-1500:Rodrigo de Bastidas explores the Columbian coast from Cabo de la Vela to the Gulf of Urabá.-Gonçalo Coelho discovers "Rio de Janeiro" (Guanabara Bay).
  5. -Montezuma graciously welcomed cortez, cortez then had him executed- The aztecs attacked and were defeated-1521, Guatemoc, the new Aztec emperor, surrendered. This was the end of the great empire of the Aztecs.
  6. 1524 and 1526 were both failed attempts at taking the incan empire1533 finally took the incan empire that extended down then west side of south america
