Spain Claims Empire

How many of you would join a voyage of exploration? Why or why not? What are some of the pros/cons of going? What thoughts would have gone through your head as you set sail into an unmapped world, knowing you might come face to face with wild beasts, dangerous cannibals or worse? What would you have been hoping to gain as a result of your hardships and travels? How do you think you would have felt when your life of an explorer was over?

In 1493, to solve dispute between Spain and Portugal, Pope Alexander VI drew a line down the middle of the Atlantic (THE LINE OF DEMARCATION) All non-Christian lands to the east = Portugal All non-Christian lands to the west = Spain

King John II of Portugal is not happy and meets with Spain to move the line TREATY OF TORDESILLAS (1494): the line is moved 800 miles to the west

This led to an explosion of EXPLORATION!

1. To spread Christianity through MISSIONARIES2. To build an empire

MERCANTILISM is the process through which more goods leave a country than enter

1. Provided mines of gold and silver 2. Produced goods, including crops 3. Served as a market for home country

Italian 1501 Set out to find Asia Realized New World was not Asia Described land in detail to mapmaker who called the New World America!

Spain 1513 Led expedition through Panama to the Pacific When stood in Pacific, claimed all of the land around for Spain

Portugal 1519 Wanted to reach Asia by sailing west around South America Funded by Spain 5 ships, 240 men Succeeded and made it to the Philippines

If you could go on a journey of exploration today (somewhere you have never been) where would you go? What research would you do and what preparations would you make? How would your journey be different from the explorers of the 1500’s?
