c.)
Explain ONE way in which the Portuguese established a new maritime empire in the time period between 1450 and
1750

a) One political motivation behind new maritime empire building was defense. An example of this is when an empire is surrounded on all sides by water. This means that the only way that empire can be attacked/invaded is by sea. This makes its defense system very easy. The empire simply has to make sure that all of its coastlines are highly defended so that it can remain safe.

b) One economic motivation behind the creation of maritime empires during 1450-1750 is trade. All of these maritime empires were very successful in their economy. The definition of a maritime empire is a small piece of land that is surrounded by large bodies of water. This means that these empires have high availability to the sea and other trading partners. These empires could export and import any types of goods that they needed, leading to their economy being able to flourish.

c) In the beginning of the 16th century, the Portuguese were able to establish and build the most successful and largest maritime empire that the world ever saw. This was all thanks to its excellent and above average navigation skills. This large empire strung from South America to the Far East, along with the coastlines of India and Africa. With all of this trading ground, Portugal was able to control a vast majority of the European spice trade. Portugal was able to do all this and become so successful because of their astounding navigation skills.

Explanation:

especially research the treaty of greenville and the treaty of colerain in washington's administration.   also research at least one significant treaty from the administrations of adams, jefferson, and madison. tell the outcome of each treaty and how it did or did not in the further development of the west.

treaty of greenville (1814) the treaty of greenville (1814) was called a treaty of peace and friendship between the united states of america and the tribes of native americans called the wyandots, delawares, shawanoese, senacas and miamies.

the treaty of colerain was signed at st. marys, georgia in camden county, georgia, by benjamin hawkins, george clymer, and andrew pickens for the united states and representatives of the creek nation, for whom indian trader langley bryant served as an interpreter, on june 29, 1796, proclaimed on march 18, 1797, and codified as 7 stat. 56. colerain was a small community and the site of a u.s. indian factory founded by james seagrove.  

this treaty affirmed the binding of the treaty of new york (1790). the treaties of hopewell and the treaty of holston (1791) established boundary lines between the choctaws, chickasaws, cherokee, and the u.s. the treaty of colerain bound the creek nation to acknowledge the boundaries established in those treaties.  

it also established the boundary line between the creek nation and the united states. at the time of this treaty, the boundaries between spanish florida and the u.s. had not yet been established. this treaty formally allowed the creek chiefs to acknowledge the negotiation for delineating the georgia-florida boundary with spain.  

the treaty contained a provision that the president of the u.s. may establish a trading or military outpost.  

the united states demanded that the creeks give up their american prisoners and also return all "citizens, white inhabitants, negroes and property" taken by the creeks.  

the treaty describes when it would take effect. after the treaty had been signed but not yet promulgated, the u.s. senate requested modification of two articles of the treaty. the first modification stipulated that the military or trading posts would be under the control of the united states. the second modification stipulated that if the u.s. no longer required the use of those posts, the locations would revert to the creek people.
