Summary
Tens of thousands of years ago, ancient peoples began migrating to the Americas where they expanded southward and developed their own cultures. From the fourteenth to the sixteenth centuries, the Renaissance brought scientific advances and an increase in wealth to Europe. Portuguese mariners sailed south into the Atlantic Ocean and reached highly sophisticated Western Africa, which led to an expansion of the slave trade. Spain sponsored a voyage they hoped would reach the Indies of East Asia, but instead brought them to the Americas. The Spanish quickly conquered the Native American civilizations they found and began to colonize the land. The rise of colonies had begun to spread fast including the establishment of the English colonies in the eastern United States. The English colonist would soon be granted with the opportunity to gain independence from Britain.
