2. Section 1:The Search for Spices expanded greatly with European explorers in the 1400s
Motivations for Exploring the Seas began with the spice islands in Moluccas (Indonesia), and soon changed due to the Renaissance spirit and Europeans wanting to cash in
Portugal Sails East, taking Madeira and Azores islands and the port Ceuta in Northern Africa
Mapping the African Coast helped Prince Henry and Dias (captain) pass the Cape of Good Hope (southern most tip of Africa)
Seeking India Vasco da Gama expanded on Dias’ voyage making it to Calicut, traded for spices (making a huge profit), seized many ports on the Indian Ocean, and created a trading empire

3. Columbus Sails West for Spain figuring a few weeks of travel
Reaching Faraway Lands, funded by Ferdinand and Isabella of Spain, Columbus’s 3 ships reached the Caribbean (Columbus believed he had reached the West Indies, and Columbus would return to Spain as a hero)
Dividing the Globe in Half between Spain and Portugal by Pope Alexander VI by the “line of demarcation” was implemented with the signing of the Treaty of Tordesillas
Naming the Western Hemisphere occurred as Vespucci’s German cartographer Waldseemuller called the new lands “Americas”

4. The Search for a Direct Route Continues, but ended with Magellan sailing around the southern tip of south America (naming the straits “Straits of Magellan”), and he would name the Pacific Ocean (Latin for peaceful); Magellan would sail to the Philippines (where he died), and 1 ship and 18 crewmen survived reaching Spain (first to circumnavigate the globe)

6. Chapter 14: Section 2 Main Ideas
Main Idea #1: Portugal was the 1st to open up Africa
Main Idea #2: Other European countries took advantage of the slave trade
Main Idea #3: Oyo & Asante African kingdoms benefited from the slave trade

7. Section 2: Turbulent Centuries in Africa began as European explorers entered Africa in 1400s
Portugal Gains Footholds using force along the East African coast taking (Mombasa and Malindi), but the Portuguese empire declined and did not leave a lasting legacy in Africa
The African Slave Trade Explodes (nothing new) as slaves often became artisans, soldiers, merchants, or worked on a farm
Europeans Enter the Slave Trade trading textiles, metalwork, rum, tobacco, weapons, and gunpowder for the slaves; for the most part Europeans did not travel inland for slaves, but traded for slaves with coastal countries

8. *Directions: Answer the following questions dealing with the map.
1. What does the map show? 
2. Why did the Americas need slave labor?
3. How many slaves went to Brazil?
4. What was the main reason slaves were taken to Mexico?

9. New African States Arise through the profit and development of the slave trade
The Asante Kingdom increased it power through trading gold and slaves for firearms
The Oyo Empire increased its military and land through trading slaves for firearms

10. The European Presence Expands: British and French – both started out in present day Senegal, and the French settled there while the British would explore inland; Dutch – settled the southern tip of Africa and built Cape Town (most of the settlers were Boers or Dutch farmers)

11. Chapter 14: Section 3 Main Ideas
Main Idea #1: Portugal gains a foothold in India
Main Idea #2: The Dutch East India Company dominated trade in Africa and India
Main Idea #3: Spain took the Philippines (important for trade)

12. Section 3;European Footholds in South and Southeast Asia began with Portuguese domination (cannon power)
Portugal Builds an Eastern Empire by gaining the trust of the Indian Princes during the Mughal Empire (promising protection from other European conquest)
A Rim of Trading Outposts increased though physical domination (Goa and Malacca), and for the most part Portugal controlled the spice trade between Europe and Asia through it massive network of trading posts

Building a Mighty Sea Power began with a settlement in Cape Town and other port cities
A Powerful Dutch Company called the “Dutch East India Company” was set up by a group of wealthy merchants, and what made the company unique what its sovereign powers (it could do what it wanted)

14. Spain Seizes the Philippines as Magellan claimed the archipelago for Spain in 1521 (renaming them after King Philip II), and this location became important (gold and silver came from Mexico and Peru and was used to trade for Chinese goods)

15. Mughal India and European Traders had 2 different ideas
Europeans trade
Mughal continue with life
A Great Empire Shatters as conflicts between Muslims and Hindus and civil wars depleted resources, causing an increase in taxes, then rebellions over the high taxes, and the government would collapse due to widespread corruption
Both British and French have East India Companies which made treaties with local rulers allowing them to hire native Indians as soldiers (sepoys)

16. East India Trading Companies Activities…

17. Chapter 14: Section 4 Main Ideas
Main Idea #1: Europeans trade with China, but China wants nothing to do with them
Main Idea #2: Korea practices isolation, but is unsuccessful due to Chinese and Manchurian invasions
Main Idea #3: Japan welcomes European traders, but later kicks them out

18. Section 4: Encounters in East Asia by the Portuguese created excitement for the Portuguese and caution by the Chinese
European Contact With Ming China again showed China wanted nothing to do with Europeans
The Ming Limit Trade to Canton (port region), but open it up to the Portuguese, Dutch, and English (had strict supervision by imperial officials); when the trading season was over all foreigners had to leave China

19. The Manchu Conquest coming from the north over the Ming as the Ming were declining, the Manchu seized Beijing and made it their capital
Founding the Qing Dynasty was easy as the Manchus adopted the Confucian system of government, and local governing remained in the hands of the native Chinese (Manchu troops were stationed across the land to ensure loyalty)
Rejecting Contact With Europeans increased, and reached it height when Lord McCartney demanded to see Emperor Qianlong, refused to perform the kowtow, and Qianlong refused to see him (frustrating MaCartney)
This would eventually come back to haunt China

20. Korea Chooses Isolation but struggles from Japanese invasions in 1592 and 1597 (villages were burned, famine and disease were widespread, and the population decreased), and then invasion from the Manchus in 1636 (forces Korea to become a tributary state)
It was after those 3 invasion the Korean practices isolationism
Positives: during isolation Korea experienced success in the area of arts and literature

21. Foreign Traders in Japan were welcomed (Spanish, Portuguese, Dutch, English) as Europeans offered firearms, and this was a time when Daimyos were fighting for power (which eventually helped the Tokugawa Shoguns take power)
Although the Japanese first welcomed western culture (Christianity and Renaissance technologies), they quickly became hostile towards foreigners
Expelled foreign missionaries, killed thousands of Christians, barred all European merchants, outlaws the building of large ships, and forbid travel
During this time of isolation (200 years) arts and internal trade boomed
