However, taking things from the people that originated in that land could end bad. 
An example would be when the Ottoman Empire took over Constantinople it blocked a lot of routes and lands. ]]> 2021-01-08 14:35:21 UTC https://padlet.com/abulatam/fqqr73d1fijbdwjg/wish/1067144455 abulatam https://padlet.com/abulatam/fqqr73d1fijbdwjg/wish/1067144458 When you have different religious beliefs it could cause a conflict in different ways. 
Everyone has there own beliefs and worship there own god. 
However, say someone comes in your land and has different religious aspects, this could cause a conflict and sometimes is does not it depends on the ruler and what they think. 
However religion is good and important to worship who you believe in. ]]> 2021-01-08 14:35:21 UTC https://padlet.com/abulatam/fqqr73d1fijbdwjg/wish/1067144458 abulatam https://padlet.com/abulatam/fqqr73d1fijbdwjg/wish/1067144461 Gold was the main riches that would get sold or bought. 
Sometimes gold was so valuable it was stolen from greedy people. ]]> 2021-01-08 14:35:21 UTC https://padlet.com/abulatam/fqqr73d1fijbdwjg/wish/1067144461 abulatam https://padlet.com/abulatam/fqqr73d1fijbdwjg/wish/1067144466 When reaching for fame you could get higher on any type of social class or richer than you already are.
However having glory could lead to jealousy and people trying to conquer your land and your title, which leads to war.  ]]> 2021-01-08 14:35:21 UTC https://padlet.com/abulatam/fqqr73d1fijbdwjg/wish/1067144466 abulatam https://padlet.com/abulatam/fqqr73d1fijbdwjg/wish/1067144469 Spices were a huge part in the Exploration. People wanted to find a new route for spice trades and silk trades. 
Spices were more expensive than gold and could make someone very wealthy. With people conquering land it blocked some spice trade routes. ]]> 2021-01-08 14:35:21 UTC https://padlet.com/abulatam/fqqr73d1fijbdwjg/wish/1067144469 abulatam https://padlet.com/abulatam/fqqr73d1fijbdwjg/wish/1067144473 Prince Henry used these trade routes to get spices. Many new trade routes were discovered for transportation. 
However some many were blocked as people took over land. ]]> 2021-01-08 14:35:21 UTC https://padlet.com/abulatam/fqqr73d1fijbdwjg/wish/1067144473 abulatam https://padlet.com/abulatam/fqqr73d1fijbdwjg/wish/1067144479 He was determined to find trade routes and he also wanted to find a christian converter. However it was soon to be just a legend. He established a sailors school. All these positives but, some of his plans did not go as plan when figuring out the truth about certain events. ]]> 2021-01-08 14:35:21 UTC https://padlet.com/abulatam/fqqr73d1fijbdwjg/wish/1067144479 abulatam https://padlet.com/abulatam/fqqr73d1fijbdwjg/wish/1067144481 Christopher Columbus set on many voyages to found a lot of trade routes. Instead he ended up finding a huge part of Europe and Spain.  
However, Columbus started taking in natives as slaves and this started conflict until a treaty officially divided them. ]]> 2021-01-08 14:35:21 UTC https://padlet.com/abulatam/fqqr73d1fijbdwjg/wish/1067144481 abulatam https://padlet.com/abulatam/fqqr73d1fijbdwjg/wish/1067144489 Were these motives and cause for exploration harmless?
I think the exploration motives and causes were not harmless what so ever. Making trade routes and discovering them does not harm any one whether you like who goes in your land or not. Selling gold and gold that is bought is not a bad thing. I think conquering land without fighting however capturing instead is better than killing. Also with the peace treaty it makes everyone happy in there own land. Trying to get wealthy buy buying goods such as spices and silk and gold is fine. Overall none of the motives or causes during the exploration harm anyone. ]]> 2021-01-08 14:35:21 UTC https://padlet.com/abulatam/fqqr73d1fijbdwjg/wish/1067144489 abulatam https://padlet.com/abulatam/fqqr73d1fijbdwjg/wish/1067144501 During Corteses journey the natives eventually gave them information that led Cortes into the Greatest Central American Civilization. 
In order to get this civilization a ton of sacrifices were made between the enemy and Corteses own group. ]]> 2021-01-08 14:35:21 UTC https://padlet.com/abulatam/fqqr73d1fijbdwjg/wish/1067144501 abulatam https://padlet.com/abulatam/fqqr73d1fijbdwjg/wish/1067144506 The city of Tenochtitlan there were many temples houses for different idols and the public infrastructure was beautiful their knowing it was the capital.  
This city was so big it could be easy for any disease to spread around their. ]]> 2021-01-08 14:35:21 UTC https://padlet.com/abulatam/fqqr73d1fijbdwjg/wish/1067144506 abulatam https://padlet.com/abulatam/fqqr73d1fijbdwjg/wish/1067144508 Cortes and his men eventually met Montezuma or the king of the Aztecs. Once they met him he gave them so many gifts and tons of food. However word from Cortes had reached them. Many Aztecs were suspicious about Cortes coming to their lands. ]]> 2021-01-08 14:35:21 UTC https://padlet.com/abulatam/fqqr73d1fijbdwjg/wish/1067144508 abulatam https://padlet.com/abulatam/fqqr73d1fijbdwjg/wish/1067144510 The Spanish killed hundreds of Aztecs and trashed their city. Hernand Cortes eventually claimed all the land that he had ¨conquered.¨]]> 2021-01-08 14:35:21 UTC https://padlet.com/abulatam/fqqr73d1fijbdwjg/wish/1067144510 abulatam https://padlet.com/abulatam/fqqr73d1fijbdwjg/wish/1067144516 Did Cortes embody the human spirit of exploration and acquisition of knowledge? In my opinion Cortes did not know anything or had no knowledge about what an expedition really was. I think for him, his goal was to kill in order to reach his goals. Something he had not kept in mind was, there is always another way out of it. One word I would use to describe Cortes is Ruthless. I think he emobies the complete opposite of what an expedition is really about. ]]> 2021-01-08 14:35:21 UTC https://padlet.com/abulatam/fqqr73d1fijbdwjg/wish/1067144516 abulatam https://padlet.com/abulatam/fqqr73d1fijbdwjg/wish/1067144525 Maybe this was an example of spreading religion and some of the people look like they might be converting non christians into christians. ]]> 2021-01-08 14:35:21 UTC https://padlet.com/abulatam/fqqr73d1fijbdwjg/wish/1067144525 abulatam https://padlet.com/abulatam/fqqr73d1fijbdwjg/wish/1067144527 Queen Elizabeth orders people to conquer land and convert natives to christianity. ]]> 2021-01-08 14:35:21 UTC https://padlet.com/abulatam/fqqr73d1fijbdwjg/wish/1067144527 abulatam https://padlet.com/abulatam/fqqr73d1fijbdwjg/wish/1067144532 This source tells us there was a disease that spread and many soldiers died and christmas will not be normal in times like this.

I think they were slightly different. During the English and French alot more of the converting people, took place. It was like they would conquer land and then convert natives into christians. However during the Spanish, it was more of getting rich and conquering for wealth, however converting took place but not all the time. Sometimes it would be enslaving them instead of converting them. I definitely think they were different but at the same time similar in their own way. ]]> 2021-01-08 14:35:21 UTC https://padlet.com/abulatam/fqqr73d1fijbdwjg/wish/1067144551 abulatam https://padlet.com/abulatam/fqqr73d1fijbdwjg/wish/1067144554 I definitely think that the age of exploration was a time of invasion.  Many people invaded to conquer land. Also many people killed innocent people to get wealth for themselves. An expedition does not work like this. Harming and enslaving people with no mercy shown is ruthless and what people like Cortes did to get what he wanted. Also a lot of stealing took place. I think this Age of ¨Exploration¨ should be called the depressing age. The innocent got so much they didn't deserve but it was simply for the happiness of the non-innocent. ]]> 2021-01-08 14:35:21 UTC https://padlet.com/abulatam/fqqr73d1fijbdwjg/wish/1067144554
