More trade routes were made, all(prenominal)owing trade to come in all around the world. Trade became an significant force of change and had umpteen an(prenominal) effects on society and foreign relations. From 1300-1800 many European countries treasured to expand and make their lands more bountiful with more resources and goods from other places. Countries cherished what other countries had for example different types of food and spices.This desire for bran- new(a) goods and resources drove chisel countries to explore new lands and trade with other places so they can make water those things. For example, there was Vasco de Gama of Portugal who travelled to Calicut, India, claiming that he wanted to befriend the ruler of Calicut (document 4). In truth, the reason Vasco de Gama came to India was because he knew that other countries were bringing goods to India and he was interested in discovering what goods and resources they had.As more trade routes were being made, and more countries were exploring different lands trade became an important force for change collect to the exchanging of different resources and ideas. The Western Hemisphere and the easterly Hemisphere each had a lot to offer (document 2) and through the many trade routes that were made through the European sea trade (document 5), a lot of goods were right off being exchanged. So a variety of lands presently had different food, animals, metals, and diseases.In this new modern world, changes began to happen in different areas lands were now being exposed to different resources unlike what they were used to because of the different goods and resources they were receiving. some other change that occurred because of this age of exploration and trading is the rising of a new merchant class (document 3).

For example the allowter from the governor of Sijilmasa in southerly Morocco, to the king of Ghana in Western Africa (document 1). Even though these ii kingdoms are not from the same religion or place, they have put option aside their differences and agreed on the issue that merchants should not be imprisoned.Trade has let completely different people interact and communicate humanly even up though they are not the same. Another example is what Pope naive III granted to Venice (document 6). Under normal circumstances the pope did not allow Venice to trade with Muslim because they were at war with them, but due to critical conditions, an acception was made, to allow the people of Venice to live well. Venice was now allowed to trade with the Muslims, so the relationship between those two lands were mended slightly due to this.In general because of the European sea trade and all the trade routes that there were, countries were forced to interact more with each other, so just in that aspect itself it alter relationships between countries, different lands, and leaders themselves. In the 1300s to the 1800s, goods and resources became more suitable so trade routes flourished throughout the European sea trade.
