Christopher Columbus was an explorer in the 15th century and he went exploring to find a new path to Japan and China, he did this to make it easier to get Japanese and Chinese spices and goods over to Spain, this is like Abel   because he went exploring to sell more products and make money just like Christopher   when he tried to find a way to import spices and sell products to Japan. They are also different because Christopher Columbus never found Japan and China and never got the spices he wanted. Abel, on the other hand, got exactly what he wanted.

Abel Tasman was the first person to explore Newzealand and the areas around him so there is now a national park named after him and a sea named after him. Like Christopher Columbus got a day and a park named after him, so Tasman and Columbus in the end both something to memorate him. Tasman got a section of the sea named after him unlike Columbus he got a day and a park named after him.

Another effect of Tasman is he found the Fiji islands, and Christopher Columbus found islands like the Caribbean. Though they are different because the Bahamas and the caridean are in the northern hemisphere unlike Fiji and Newzealand, they are on the Southern Hemisphere.

This is Christopher Columbus personal journal, this is exactly what happened on his journey to America.

These are alike because they are both about exploring a new place and new people, but these are different because Christopher Columbus wrote in a different language than Abel, but thanks to current technology it can be translated and written in our common language or any at all.

These are alike because they were made from the effect of an explorer, they are also unlike each other because one is in the ocean and one is currently in a museum full of artifacts and other paintings like it.

Abel Tasman was sent to trade and gain any knowledge possible on the southern lands. He found many new species that infested the waters of Newzealand and surrounding islands. This impacted today because now we can understand and try to find the species that relate to the fossils the animals left, we also have a better understanding of the animal life back when the technology we have wasn't even a thought. Today we can simply log things into a computer and then the computer can do the rest, but back then they had to figure it out themselves and make drawings instead of taking a picture.

Colonization brought new ideas and technology, like the printing press and silk, that many people never thought of, like today technology is always advancing to a new level, but unlike today technology took a while for other continents to learn about advancement in other countries because communication was slow, today all people have to do is post something on the internet and anyone around the world and see it a learn all about it.

 

Without colonization, most Americans would be native Indian or Mexican. Colonization brought cultural blending and without it, we wouldn't have jazz or some ballroom dances. Like today many people know where they came from or the general idea, unlike today we can blend easier than before, we don't have to take a weeks-long journey to the sea. Now we can take a plane and be anywhere in the world in a day.
