AP World History: Modern
Unit 3 – Land-Based Empires (1450-1750)
Topic 3.1
What role did naval technology play in shaping the borders of expanding land-based European empires during the early modern era?
Advanced naval technology enabled more efficient exploration and colonization across oceans, expanding these empires' territories significantly.
Naval technology was used primarily for trading purposes and had little impact on territorial gains or losses.
Naval technology caused diplomatic disputes with non-European states, resulting in a decrease in territorial expansion.
Despite advancements, naval technology was largely irrelevant to European empires' land-based expansion efforts.
