Pros and Cons of European Explorations - Lily:)

Pros and Cons of European Exploration:)!

 
Pros Cons
  • New World was found by Cristopher Columbus
  • Colonies were established in different places in the world
  • New products were spread across the world
  • Trade and trading posts
  • Many Africans were taken as slaves
  • Many sailors were killed by sailors and bad sailing conditions
  • Epidemics broke out from the Spainish that killed
  • Massacreing Native Americans

 

Questions:)!

1) I think European Exploration  had a more positive impact on the world because if it had never occoured, we would not be here today.  We would not know as much about the world as we do now.

2) The Age of Explotaion changed the way Europeans viewed the world because they now know that the Americas and Indies exist, and now know that the world is round, not flat.
