      @luisalmeida1391 Před 3 lety +221

      Sugar was actually very rare and thus extremely expensive and although the video focuses more on how the European exploration influenced North America, with the discovery of the maritime route to India, Lisbon became one of the biggest cities in the world and Portugal became the richest country in the world because she dethroned the previous spice route.
      Portugal continued to explore and to expand Brazil, but wood and sugar, despite lucrative, weren't gold, as you said. However gold was found in Brazil, eventually, which triggered a lot more interest in this colony.

      Yes, but that's because the Narrator 1st concentrates on South America. North America, as you can see, right from the Early 1500, it was the Brits and the French and a few decades later, Dutch. There was a lot going on in the northern continent, whilst Spanish Conquistadors, were Raping and pillaging in South America, But it was less murderous and intense.You just have to take an interest and reseearch. It - it was equally interesting, Britain and the France had colonialists, who became fur trappers, who actually lived amongst the Indian tribes, in the early years, and actually married in to those communities, which was much more cooperative and less divisive than the Spanish experience, which was far more "top-down" domination, and also part of the reason why the Spanish ended up causing so much resentment, which led to the early decline, of their empire.
      I rremember that the Name of the French trappers, Living with the Indians were called "The Courious de bois". I remember reading about this and thinking this must have been the best time for everyone concerned, where life was hard, living off a hostile land, Without modern technology, right in the deep wild, but communication was relatively good and animosity limited, except between the British and French colonies, later when the symptoms of the 7 years War started simmering. Remember, the 1st settlers were pretty much left alone by the Crown and the people Were living a relatively free life, even though the risks were far higher, in an unpredictable sense

      @@DCDVassili Stop with your propaganda. You should try to learn the Difference between a "US citizen", post 1776 and a working class English settler, before the 7 years War (approx: 1575-1748). t's a matter-of-fact that the English crown, "refused" the settlers requests, who kept asking to be able to push to the west and Violate "Treaties" That had been agreed to, With the natives and were Honoured, by the British Crown. The Brits were there for 200 years, before the Americans independence, but still only maintained colonies on the eastern border. It Wasn't until after the "American Independence", That the Settlers Began (Under the Bullshit manifest destiny lie) began to Push into the West and Started Causing More Atrocities. So it's the opposite of what you are saying.
      The original "working class", fur trapping colonialists, from Britain and france, wanted to escape the hegemony, of the crowns of theiir respective kingdoms and many did live, marry and trade, amongst the natives. With Regards to those Spanish exploiting and violating, I wasnt talking about the Spanish "working class", or settlers, I was talking about the Imperial "upper classes(Conquistadsors) that were sent there, who were causing the exploitation.The difference was that In the case of the original settlers forming from Britain and France, the Crowns, in those countries, were not so bothered about the new world, at that stage, as they had domestic issues.A bit later is when the Crown got involved and conflict Between Britain and France, started to be more severe, as a Kind of proxy war.
      Also, there were far more losses amongst the indigenous in South than in North America.Even though the Spanish crown and many religious figures, wanted more peaceful indigenous contact, the Conquistadors, ddidn't honour those wishes and destroyed communities,, wherever they went, Stealing gold and taking it to Spain and reacting aggressively when the indigenous misunderstood and reacted ambiguously to attempted religious indoctrination.

      The claim couldn't be enforced because you know, icy lands, as you said Spain built stetlements in the area, some explorers were sent to the area by the King Charles III of Spain just to explore the territory.
      The thing is that Spain had a way more richer territories than British in Canada or Australia, most people don't know but Australia was discovered by spaniards as well as Canada and most people don't know why Canada is called Canada, spaniards named canada "Acá nada" that means "here nothing"
      Why to claim an icy land where a penguin Will fell cold when you have the "Virreinato de Nueva España" which is the actual Mexico, Mexico is nowadays the country that produce the most silver and Peru is the second, How much petrol Venezuela has? How much iron latin america has? How much zinc latin america has?

      @Weasel I’m pretty sure he said America, not just North America. North America has roughly 317 million English speakers and 121 million Spanish speakers, so yes. English is more in North America. But in South America, because he clearly said Arctic to Antarctic, there is 5.4 million English speakers and about 210 million Spanish speakers. The Caribbean, also apart of the Americas, is 64% Spanish, though i cant find a Spanish speaking population number that excludes islands already counted in north and South America. In Central America, there is an additional 32 million Spanish speakers. So that’s looking to be 360 million Spanish speakers to 322 million English speakers (I didn’t count the 400k English creoles speakers in Central America as I was avoiding too many decimals)

      The Catholics, the Queen and the priests were super worried about the wellbeing of the natives. They held conferences and agreed they were not barbarians but humans with soul and dignity. The conquistadors on the other hand were businessmen of war and they often clashed with the church due to the mistreatment of natives, and generally ignored the laws that protected natives.
      In any case, by far the worse enemy of the natives were the viruses they had no defenses against.

      The Portuguese found more gold in Brazil in 30 years (1690 - 1720) than the Spanish found in the previous 200 years in America, and it allowed Brazil to become the most profitable colony in the Americas by 1720, and King John V to become the King with more gold in the world. It really should have been mentioned. It gave Portugal a considerable amount of power in South America.

      The Portuguese didn't reject Columbus because his calculations were incorrect. They rejected him because he wanted to explore and tell the world what he would find during his voyages, but Portugal already knew that there was a large land (America) between Europe and Asia and they didn't want other countries to know of it. Obviously they didn't know the size of it, but they did know that Columbus would find it and quickly spread word of it to all europe. The fact that Brazil was "officially" discovered by Portugal in the year 1500, means that the portuguese already knew of it's existence way before Columbus found America, and decided to make their claim to Brazil official.

    The first germans, polish, czechs, flemish (belgians), swiss and maybe from other central european countries to set foot on continental mainland of New World was in 1529, so as to work as miners to search El Dorado in actual Venezuela . The leased colony by Emperor Charles V to the Augsburg banker family of Welser was called "Klein Venedig" and its capital Coro was named "Neu Augsburg", Maracaibo "Neu Nüremberg" and Cabimas o "Neu Ulm". Some expeditions inland departed from Coro and El Tocuyo (also given a german name as Tocuyothal) searching for El Dorado. "Klein Venedig" didn't last long though, this was due to both poor results and complaints from miners and locals, thus Emperor Charles V didn't renew the contract to the Welsers (bankers from Augsburg). Some very old and forgotten cemeteries in NW Venezuela may have some surnames still, no idea. This was at a time when the portuguese were still exploring lands which soon later became Brazil and the spanish just arriving to Cuzco and the River Plate. 🇩🇪🇻🇪 🤠👍
    That's right the reasons of the Welser expeditions was to find Eldorado for that, they didn't make a culture legacy and now Maracaibo (The principal city than they created ) doesn't have nothing of germ an culture appart of the Tovar colony established in 1842. But in the Second World War with the germans emigration they build and reapairs so much of his old colonies these new villages start to buiding to equaty than in otrers countries like Peru, Brasil, Chile, Uruguay and Argentina that's when they finally make a legacy in that's countries (Culture legacy). sorry for the fails in the coment, my english is not very nice .

    So an honest question, when the boats are sailing and revealing Space, is that really how far you can see of the planet? I’m trying to reference this with the Chesapeake bay, it is pretty wide but much smaller on a map like this.
