Methods of Change Commerce and Exploration Increased nautical technology (caravel/sextant) Nation states needed wealth (hard currency) Fund wars (round robin power struggle) Policy of Mercantilism: Primary reason for colonialism is to increase wealth of home country. Supply raw materials and avoid trade with rivals Joint Stock Companies Made long range trade possible Forerunner of corporations (capitalism) Initially operated with royal charters

Age of Exploration First colonization of New World (N./S. America) Spain Portugal Columbian exchange (corn/potatoes) Treaty of Tordesillas (1494) Settle disputes between Spain and Portugal AKA Papal Line of Demarcation England ignored treaty Rivalry established Portugal vs. Spain (eventual winner) Cortes/Pizarro Find significant wealth
