The document provides an overview of key topics and events from European exploration and colonization during the Age of Discovery. It discusses motivations for European exploration like seeking trade routes to Asia and acquiring wealth. Key figures that enabled exploration are mentioned, such as Prince Henry of Portugal. Important sailing innovations, like the caravel and compass, are described. Early English colonies in North America and the Mayflower Compact establishing self-governance are summarized. The document also briefly outlines the transatlantic slave trade and effects of the Columbian Exchange, as well as some consequences of the Protestant Reformation like the Thirty Years' War and rise of absolute monarchs in Europe like Louis XIV of France and Peter the Great of Russia.

Important
Sailing
Innova1ons
— THE CARAVEL — THE COMPASS
— Invented by the Portuguese in — Earliest known use of it was in
the 15th century China, ca. 250 BC
— Light, maneuverable sailing ship — First used by European sailors in
— Used a TRIANGULAR SAIL that the 13th century
allowed ships to move AGAINST — Uses a magnetized lodestone
THE WIND! — Enabled voyages beyond coasts
— Allowed for greater speed as well — Helps sailors find DIRECTION!

• Catholics, Lutherans and Calvinists all fought each other in GERMANY,
the Holy Roman Empire fell apart and was divided up into small principalities.
• So: France, Spain, Sweden and Denmark all tried to snatch parts of Germany!

74. President
Harry
Truman:
• “At the present moment in world history nearly every nation must
choose between alternative ways of life. The choice is too often not a
free one. One way of life is based upon the will of the majority, and is
distinguished by free institutions, representative government, free
elections, guarantees of individual liberty, freedom of speech and
religion, and freedom from political oppression. The second way of life is
based upon the will of a minority forcibly imposed upon the majority. It
relies upon terror and oppression, a controlled press and radio, fixed
elections, and the suppression of personal freedoms.
• I believe that it must be the policy of the United States to support free
peoples who are resisting attempted subjugation by armed minorities or
by outside pressures.
• I believe that we must assist free peoples to work out their own
destinies in their own way.
• I believe that our help should be primarily through economic and
financial aid which is essential to economic stability and orderly political
processes.” - Speech given to Congress, 1947
