Seeking New Trade Routes • The maps used by Columbus and other early explorers included only 3 continents: Europe, Asia, and Africa. • Some explorers also thought that the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans ran together to form the Ocean Sea.
Portugal Leads the Explorations • Portuguese rulers wanted to find a new route to China and India because they did not have a Mediterranean port and could not be involved in the trade between Europe and Asia. • The Portuguese also wanted to find a more direct way to get West African gold.
Early Portuguese Voyages • Prince Henry the Navigator established a navigation school in 1420, bringing astronomers, geographers, and mathematicians to share their knowledge. • Portuguese ships sailed along the coast of West Africa where they traded gold, ivory, and slaves. The African coast became known as the Gold Coast.
