The history of the world sees one of its most drastic changes as the Europeans take to the seas and spread out around the globe. There is way more to this than ‘Columbus sailed the ocean blue in fourteen hundred ninety-two’. This half of the Early Modern period (1450-1750) focuses on the causes, implications, and outcomes of Europeans arriving in the Americas, Africas, and Asia. All this because the late-blooming European finally began adopting scientific learning, and technology from the Classical world, Dar al-Islam (Islamic), and the Asian worlds to good use. Good thing you just mastered the Land Empires in Asia in the last unit, because the Europeans are about to start knocking on their doors. Some of them will answer, others will not, but everyone feels the impact of the Europeans. These are the Transoceanic Interactions of the Early Modern Period.
