religion in general

So, Italy led a revolution in the
th
th
15 and 16 centuries
because it changed the way
people thought about
themselves and about the
world around them.
Throughout the 13th and 14th centuries Europeans had
been bringing back ideas and inventions from the Arab
Muslim Empires in the Middle East.

Europeans became more interested in
the world around them and the world
beyond their shores. Italians, in
particular, combined their interest in
trade with this new mindset to create. . .
An Age of Exploration!!!
(Hey, if we want to explore the
world, how are we going to get
there?)
This new mindset
encouraged an Italian sailor,
working for the king and
queen of Spain, to sail the
ocean blue in fourteen
hundred and ninety-two.
(We bet you know his name!!)
So, what does this all have to do
with the United States?
