The age of Discovery is an important period in European history, regarding the time between the 15th and 17th centuries. It represents the era of great overseas expeditions, explorations of places and regions, and notable markings in different nations’ cultural policies.
A vast swap of knowledge, military, economic, technological, and cultural exchange of achievements, together with the transfer of plants, fruits, animals, and foods between the Eastern and Western Hemispheres were the fundamentals of this time. Crossing many seas and oceans, European caravels were using compasses and maps for navigation.
