E. Napp The European Age of Discovery In this lesson, students will be able to define the following terms: Motives for the European Age of Exploration The Significance of the Compass and Moveable Rudder Ferdinand Magellan

E. Napp The Crusades greatly increased European interest in goods from the East.

E. Napp The Crusades greatly stimulated European interest in East Asian goods like spices, perfume, and silk.

E. Napp Improvements in Technology Better navigation skills and instruments allowed Europeans to sail farther than ever before. The compass and the moveable rudder greatly benefited navigators. Navigators could sail away from the shore and find their way to land again.

E. Napp The Chinese invented the compass. The compass allowed navigators to travel far.

E. Napp A rudder is a device used to steer a ship.

E. Napp Spreading the Gospel European rulers wanted to spread the Christian religion. European missionaries traveled to foreign lands to convert individuals and nations to Christianity. The spreading of the Christian religion was another motive or reason for the European Age of Exploration.

E. Napp European rulers correctly believed that trade with Asia would bring them vast wealth.

E. Napp Explorers With better navigational instruments and a desire for wealth and conversion, European rulers funded exploration. From Prince Henry the Navigator of Portugal to the King and Queen of Spain, explorers were given ships and crews to journey the vast seas.

E. Napp Christopher Columbus believed that by traveling West, he would arrive in the East.

E. Napp Columbus never arrived in Asia but he did land in the Americas.

E. Napp Ferdinand Magellan’s crew was the first crew to circumnavigate the world.

E. Napp Magellan’s journey opened the world to European navigators.

E. Napp Questions for Reflection: List three motives for the European Age of Exploration. List two inventions which revolutionized navigation. Who was Christopher Columbus and what was the significance of his travels? Who was Ferdinand Magellan and how did his journey affect future navigators?
