Europe: The Land Of Self-Discovery

Europe: Self-discoverable land I experienced an event that everyone in my life can think of changing my life. This event may be an emotional enlightenment or a physical change that changes a person's way of thinking. This explanation event can occur at any time. But I believe that such incidents may not occur in the first 18 years of human life. Fortunately, I have experience that I believe has changed my perspective on life. In the summer of the first year of college, I traveled back across the continent for a seven week backpacking trip.

Beginning in 1492 when Christopher Columbus discovered Europe's unknown land, the New World captured the imagination of European adventurers. Thousands of people came to the New World in search of wealth, glory, and land. During the second century these people explored the new world and conquered indigenous peoples (and the hope of gold) they met under the name of King Spain. They were later called conquers. Who are these people? Conquers came from all over Europe: some were Germans, Greeks, Flemish people, but most came from Spain, especially Spain in the south and southwestern part. Conquers usually come from families ranging from poor to low rank aristocrats: Very high births rarely have to undertake to find adventure. To purchase trading tools such as weapons, armor, horses, some money is needed.

Europeans have regained rare fur from various animals that are considered "luxury" items in Europe. The discovery of the land was full of gold, silver and other treasures that conquers urged to begin their expedition to the Americas. While many explorers stumble on the land with huge resources, the Americas are now inviting Europeans to pursue new and improved lives. One of Europe's perceptions to Native American is transportation and transportation. Local people do not have transportation means such as carriages, plows and the like.

Even though Europeans condemn their claim in the land of the Americas, discovery forces European intellectuals to rethink the categories of geography, the universe and the universe that they imagine the world. Printing helps to disseminate these new concepts, but it also preserves the ancient tradition of drawing land and its inhabitants. Nonetheless, in the 16th century, new fields created by Europeans began to circulate widely.
