Question

1. Why European need to search a new sea route?​

Answer 1

Answer:

For centuries, Arab traders had controlled existing trade routes to Africa and Asia, which meant European merchants were forced to buy from Italian traders at high prices. They wanted to trade directly with Africa and Asia, but this meant that they had to find a new sea route.

Answer 2

Answer :-

After the fall of Constantinople in 1453 the trade route was occupied by the Ottamans who levied very high trade taxes on the transit European goods to the East. Hence Europeans went on the quest of finding a sea route to Asia. Thus the Portugese nobel Vasco da Gama succeeded in finding a sea route to Asia.
