In this unit you learned about exploration that took place in the fifteenth and sixteenth centuries. European countries led most of these explorations. What were some of the motives for exploration and expansion at that time? Who led these expeditions? What were some of the consequences of expansion for native groups and peoples? When they were alive, many explorers were hailed as brave heroes for charting the unknown. But some people today have been critical of these individuals. What is your opinion of explorers and their voyages during the First Global Age?

Answers

Answer 1

The correct answers to these open questions are the following.

What were some of the motives for exploration and expansion at that time?

Explorers of the middle ages were hired by the European kings to sail and discover new routes to distant lands such as the Indies and the African coasts, in order to explore, conquer, and exploit the many raw materials and natural resources of those continents. That is how the Spanish first arrive in the Americas. In this case, Christopher Columbus, who arrived in the Americas on October 12, 1492.

Who led these expeditions?

As I told you above, explorers such as Americo Vespucio, Christoper Columbus, or Ferdinand Magellan were some of the famous explorers of the 1400s and 1500s.

What were some of the consequences of expansion for native groups and peoples?

European kings sent their armies to conquer and colonize these territories, as was the case of the Spanish in Mesoamerica, or the French and British in the North American territory.  Europeans settled in new towns and colonies, displaced Native Indians from their lands, and spread many unknown diseases such as chickenpox, smallpox, malaria, cholera, and influenza, killing almost 70 to 80% of the native Indian population.

When they were alive, many explorers were hailed as brave heroes for charting the unknown. But some people today have been critical of these individuals. What is your opinion of explorers and their voyages during the First Global Age?

Yes, it is a controversial topic. But as some modern historians think today, these European kings and the conquerors caused too much pain, suffering, and destruction with the colonization and evangelization process. Nothing to be proud of.

The founders thought that the use of electors would give our country a representative president, while avoiding a corruptible national election.

When Americans go to the polls in presidential elections, they are not directly voting for president. They are actually voting for a group of 538 "electors" that make up the Electoral College.

Electors cast their vote on Monday 14 December, after all 50 states and the District of Columbia have certified their election results.

Answer:

The course of events and the conduct of the Provisional Government daily furnished new proofs of the correctness of the Bolshevik line. It became increasingly evident that the Provisional Government stood not for the people but against the people, not for peace but for war, and that it was unwilling and unable to give the people peace, land or bread. The explanatory work of the Bolsheviks found a fruitful soil.

While the workers and soldiers were overthrowing the tsarist government and destroying the monarchy root and branch, the Provisional Government definitely wanted to preserve the monarchy. On March 2, 1917, it secretly commissioned Guchkov and Shulgin to go and see the tsar. The bourgeoisie wanted to transfer the power to Nicholas Romanov's brother, Michael. But when, at a meeting of railwaymen, Guchkov ended his speech with the words, "Long live Emperor Michael," the workers demanded that Guchkov be immediately arrested and searched. "Horse-radish is no sweeter than radish," they exclaimed indignantly.

It was clear that the workers would not permit the restoration of the monarchy.

While the workers and peasants who were shedding their blood making the revolution expected that the war would be terminated, while they were fighting for bread and land and demanding vigorous measures to end the economic chaos, the Provisional Government remained deaf to these vital demands of the people. Consisting as it did of prominent representatives of the capitalists and landlords, this government had no intention of satisfying the demand of the peasants that the land be turned over to them. Nor could they provide bread for the working people, because to do so they would have to encroach on the interests of the big grain dealers and to take grain from the landlords and the kulaks by every available means; and this the government did not dare to do, for it was itself tied up with the interests of these classes. Nor could it give the people peace. Bound as it was to the British and French imperialists, the Provisional Government had no intention of terminating the war; on the contrary, it endeavoured to take advantage of the revolution to make Russia's participation in the imperialist war even more active, and to realize its imperialist designs of seizing Constantinople, the Straits and Galicia.

It was clear that the people's confidence in the policy of the Provisional Government must soon come to an end.
