There is a feature at the bottom that will allow you to have the text read to you, if you want. After you read the article, answer the questions below. You can highlight or bold your answers if completing electronically. I have copied the website ​ ​ ​ ​ text below if you need it. The Age of Exploration (also called the Age of Discovery) began in the 1400s and continued through the 1600s. It was a period of time when the European nations began exploring the world. They discovered new routes to India, much of the Far East, and the Americas. The Age of Exploration took place at the same time as the Renaissance. Why explore? Outfitting an expedition could be expensive and risky. Many ships never returned. So why did the Europeans want to explore? The simple answer is money. Although, some individual explorers wanted to gain fame or experience adventure, the main purpose of ​ ​ an expedition was to make money. How did expeditions make money? Expeditions made money primarily by discovering new trade routes for their nations. When the Ottoman Empire captured Constantinople in 1453, many existing trade routes ​ ​ to India and China were shut down. These trade routes were very valuable as they brought in expensive products such as spices and silk. New expeditions tried to discover oceangoing routes to India and the Far East. Some expeditions became rich by discovering gold and silver, such as the expeditions ​ ​ of the Spanish to the Americas.

I also thank Keith Storey for his valuable comments and editorial contributions. The Population Project: Newfoundland and Labrador in Transition In 2015, Newfoundland and Labrador had the most rapidly aging population in the country – which when combined with high rates of youth out-migration, declining birth rates, and an increasing number of people moving from rural parts of the province to more urban centres, means that the province is facing an unprecedented population challenge. Without intervention, this trend will have a drastic impact on the economy, governance, and the overall quality of life for the people of the province. Planning for this change and developing strategies to adjust and adapt to it is paramount. The Harris Centre’s Population Project has developed potential demographic scenarios

It also explains what Nalcor plans to do if it receives approval from the Government of Newfoundland and Labrador and the Government of Canada to build the transmission project. The summary is available in: English, French, Innu-aimun (Labrador and Quebec dialects), Naskapi and Inuktitut. For a more detailed and technical summary of the Environmental Impact Statement, please refer to the Executive Summary of the Environmental Impact Statement. Glossary of Terms Adaptive management – learning from experience and improving things like mitigation and processes to make them better. Alternating current (ac) – most common form of electrical current or power; this is the type of power that people use in their homes. Biophysical – physical and biological components of the environment, such as air quality, aquatics, wildlife on land and in water, etc. Converter station – equipment used to convert alternating current to direct current (or direct current back to alternating current). Converter stations are part of High Voltage direct current (HVdc) transmission systems. Direct current (dc) – direct current can be used to transmit power over long transmission lines to customers for their use. It must still be changed back to alternating current power before it’s delivered to people’s homes. Electrode – high capacity grounding system used to allow HVdc systems to still operate when one electrical conductor is out of service.

  • Portuguese Empire During the Period 1415-1663 and Its Relations with China and Japan – a Case of Early Globalization
    JIEB-6-2018 Portuguese empire during the period 1415-1663 and its relations with China and Japan – a case of early globalization Pavel Stoynov Sofia University, Bulgaria Abstract. The Portuguese Colonial Empire, was one of the largest and longest-lived empires in world history. It existed for almost six centuries, from the capture of Ceuta in 1415, to the handover of Portuguese Macau to China in 1999. It is the first global empire, with bases in North and South America, Africa, and various regions of Asia and Oceania(Abernethy, 2000). The article considers the contacts between Portugal, China and Japan during the first imperial period of Portuguese Empire (1415-1663). Keywords: Portuguese Colonial Empire, China, Japan Introduction The Portuguese Colonial Empire, was one of the largest and longest-lived empires in world history. It existed for almost six centuries, from the capture of Ceuta in 1415, to the handover of Portuguese Macau to China in 1999. It is the first global empire, with bases in North and South America, Africa, and various regions of Asia and Oceania(Abernethy, 2000). After consecutive expeditions to south along coasts of Africa, in 1488 Bartolomeu Dias rounded the Cape of Good Hope, and in 1498 Vasco da Gama reached India. Over the following decades, Portuguese sailors continued to explore the coasts and islands of East Asia, establishing forts and factories as they went. By 1571 a string of naval outposts connected Lisbon to Nagasaki along the coasts of Africa, the Middle East, India and South Asia. This commercial network and the colonial trade had a substantial positive impact on Portuguese economic growth (1500–1800), when it accounted for about a fifth of Portugal's per-capita income (Wikipedia, 2018).
