Mapmaking improved due the goal of pictorial accuracy. New maps emphasized that the world was round and Africa and Asia were added with increased detail. Inspired by new maps, daring sea captains began to set out to new areas across the Atlantic. The goal was to find a quicker route from Europe to Asia. Compass and Astrolabe Improvements also made to ships to make them sail against the wind, to travel quickly and to be steered more accurately.

Improved ways of doing business- using money and increased banking services. During the 1400s a standardization of money occurred, coins were given fixed values. New shipments of gold and silver from the New World increased supplies needed by European monarchs. Joint-stock companies created. Owners would sell shares to investors, thus making them co-owners.

New exploration was often spurred on by rivalries between competing countries. Gaining riches and colonies = POWER Mercantilism= a country’s gov. must make as much money as possible. Favorable balance of trade = selling more goods than what was imported in. Get colonies- metals, raw materials, manufactured goods.

Population increased after Harsh living conditions prompted some to want to live a better life. Adventure, possible wealth, fame served as a catalyst. Escape religious or political persecution.

Motives for European Exploration 1.Crusades  by-pass intermediaries to get to Asia. Muslim Control Routes. 2.Renaissance  curiosity about other lands and peoples. 3.Reformation  refugees & missionaries. 4.Monarchs seeking new sources of revenue. 5.Technological advances. 6.Fame and fortune.
