Elizabeth Lesson 10: Exploration and Sailors Even better: Evaluate the consequences of exploration on England’s wealth and reputation Good learning: Understand why the Elizabethans became great explorers Great learning: Explain the significance of Drake, Hawkins and Raleigh Key Words:

Elizabethan exploration At the start of the 15th century much of the world as we know it had yet to be discovered by Europeans It was believed that the world was flat However, there were trade links beyond Europe as there was a great demand for luxury goods (spices, silks, perfumes etc.,) Such items were highly prized as they were brought from the Far East over land on the backs of camels, so it took a long time to transport them and they were expensive

Understand why the Elizabethans became great explorers Problems in the East- the Turkish Ottoman Empire that was hostile to Christian Europe was making it difficult and expensive to import luxury goods such as spices, incense, silks, cottons and perfumes from the east. It was feared that they may cut off trade between the East and Europe completely Problems in the East - transport was slow especially from the east where they were brought to the Mediterranean by camel (slower than boats and could not carry as much). The Ottomans also placed high taxes on all goods passing through their territory Why would the above encourage Elizabethans to become explorers?

Understand why the Elizabethans became great explorers – new inventions & ideas This was the age of the Renaissance – which encouraged learning and also a spirit of adventure The world was not flat but round, so you could probably get to the far east by going North past Russia or South past Africa The printing press- made maps and other geographical literature more widely available The astrolabe meant a ship’s position could be plotted accurately The magnetic compass was developed Small easier to steer ships were developed Triangular lateen sail meant ships could now sail in which ever direction they wished. Why would the above encourage Elizabethans to become explorers?
