What countries sent the First Explorers?
Portugal
The Portuguese were the first successful explorers because of their guns and seamanship. With their large cannons, their fleet was able to defeat most ships and armies they came across. Beginning in 1520, Portuguese fleets probing south along the western coast of Africa. There, they discovered a new source of gold. For this reason, the southern coast of West Africa became known as the Gold Coast. The explorer Vasco da Gama sailed around the southern tip of Africa, called the Cape of Good Hope, and cut across the Indian Ocean to reach India. After people heard about de Gama’s profits, many more Portuguese sailed the same route to India, setting up posts in Africa along the way.
Spain
Educated Europeans knew the world was round, but they had no idea of how big it was. The Spanish thought that they could find new routes to India and China by sailing west across the Atlantic Ocean. Christopher Columbus persuaded the king and queen of Spain to pay for his voyage sailing west to reach Asia. With his three ships, Columbus reached the islands of Cuba and Hispaniola (which would later become Dominican Republic and Haiti). As he traveled to most islands in the Caribbean, Columbus thought he had reached Asia. This false belief is why the Europeans called the people they found “Indians” they thought they were in India.
Another important explorer for Spain was Ferdinand Magellan. Magellan succeeded in reaching Asia by sailing west across the Atlantic by going around the southern tip of South American and continuing west across the Pacific Ocean. Magellan reached the Philippines in Asia, where he was killed by local natives. However, one of his ships continued on to Spain, and Magellan is given credit as being the first to sail around the entire world.
The Spanish and Portuguese began competing for the territories they found in the “New World.” Eventually they would sign a treaty, agreeing which lands each country would be allowed to take over. The new lands were given the general name America, after the Italian explorer Amerigo Vespucci. After the success of Spain and Portugal in exploring the Americas, the Dutch, the English, and the French began sending expeditions to find new places to trade in the Americas.
The European explorations would change life not only for Europeans, but also for the native peoples of South America, North America, and Africans as well.

Banpo was an ancient village along the Yellow River where people lived between 4500 and 3750 B.C.E. It is a great example of how the ancient Chinese adapted their lifestyle to live along the river. It had 45 houses that had floors that were dug into the ground to make them more safe. There were also caves under the ground to store food. There was a trench around the village to protect it from enemies. The trench also kept animals from wandering away and helped to drain water. The people of Banpo had advanced engineering techniques for living comfortably near the water.

The small villages and farming communities along the Yellow River grew into larger cities with a single government. The first of these governments was the Xia Dynasty. This dynasty lasted between 2070 and 1600 B.C.E.

According to legend, the Xia Dynasty was started by a man called Yu the Great. Yu worked for 13 years to control the flooding of the Yellow River, which ruined the crops of farmers. He wanted to do this job so badly that it is said he did not go home for 13 years while he worked on the project. According to the story, he developed irrigation systems along the Yellow River like canals and dams. Canals helped bring water to crops.

This story of the first great leader of China shows how important the Yellow River was to the early people. The leader is remembered for controlling the river and helping farmers use its waters.

Yu began the practice of a son following his father as king. This is known as “hereditary succession.”
