How does Europe get connected to the New World?

MOTIVATIONS OF EXPLORATION GLORY GOLD GOD

G #1 -- GOD European crusaders fought for control of the Holy Lands with Muslims in Southwest Asia, starting around 1100. These battles continued until 1270. Some Europeans felt they had a sacred duty to fight Muslims and convert non-Christians around the world to the Christian faith. Bartolomeu Dias on his motives… “To serve God and His majesty, to give light to those who were in darkness, and to grow rich as all men desire to do.”

G #2 -- Gold Rumors of great riches in the New World drew European powers into exploration The Crusades had helped Italy control trade routes to the Middle East and Asia European powers like England, Spain, and Portugal began to look for different trade routes They desired to find a direct sea route to Asia

Gold also includes GOODS Products brought from the Middle East…

MOVIE
