Also different countries wanted recognition as a world power and to do that they needed many military bases scattered all over the land. Christianity was also wanted by the Europeans as the only world religion. Many countries were taken over and over time some gained independence while others still need to be liberated to this day.]]> 2019-12-10 21:31:33 UTC https://padlet.com/344194/4be8mlo8kpt8/wish/422455899 344194 https://padlet.com/344194/4be8mlo8kpt8/wish/422456093 The economic factors to taking over these places are the people that live there you can force into labor, you can take over the industries they may have built, and you can also take over their land to grow cash crops to sell. ]]> 2019-12-10 21:32:03 UTC https://padlet.com/344194/4be8mlo8kpt8/wish/422456093 344194 https://padlet.com/344194/4be8mlo8kpt8/wish/422456181 There are a handful of benefits for  taking over these countries, like close to sea, a decent amount of territory to add power, and land to grow crops and have monopolies on certain items. Also certain areas would make for a good spot to have a military base to keep watch on enemy countries.  ]]> 2019-12-10 21:32:15 UTC https://padlet.com/344194/4be8mlo8kpt8/wish/422456181 344194 https://padlet.com/344194/4be8mlo8kpt8/wish/422456266 By getting more land to your name, you are getting more power. The more land you have the power you do too. With the more power you have the more you can control, i.e. market prices, religion, and sometimes even government. ]]> 2019-12-10 21:32:27 UTC https://padlet.com/344194/4be8mlo8kpt8/wish/422456266
