Exploration Essay.

From 1500s until now, from the earth to the space,human beings have never stop exploring. In the 500 years, a lot of countries got a big progress. Some of them have become the most important countries all over the world , such as Britain, America and others.Exploration gave them the chance to develop them and it's important for disseminating cultures, goods trade and technologies.

Exploration is important for disseminating cultures,which have the effects on people's mind.In 16th century,many explorers from Europe went to explore. Many place--which were unknown that time, were found time by time. The cultures of every country were taken to these places.And then, the cultures affected these places. The cultures which made these places better and better, as the languages, customs and the others, disseminated farther and farther, further and further.Their dissimilar cultures were associated together and could be complementary. So,the cultures got a very faster development by the exploration that time.

In the old, goods trade could only be in a small area, but after the exploration, goods trade could became much more father. The explorers went to find the new ways to the other countries.That made people easily to exchange their goods, as the time became shorter, the risks became fewer.Such as fur trade in 17th,Canada was the fur trade centre. People from all over the world came to Canada to get the goods that they didn't have.That were all due to the exploration.The exploration opened up many new ways for goods trade.And then, goods trade could cover all over the world and until now.

By the exploration, the world develops faster and faster in the elapsed centuries.The most important factor is technology.The technology changes the world and the exploration changes the technology.When the explorers went to other countries, they took an exchange with the native people.They saw the things that they hadn't seen and learned how to do or how to made it.When they got back, they could taught the other people.Soon,the technology became widespread.They exploration helped people to know and learn more, and then, develop their technology.They countries become better and they would be then.So, exploration is so important for technology.

No matter why or when, exploration will not be done from now to the future.That's so important for countries.Without the exploration, the world would not develop so fast, as the exploration could improve the technologies , cultures, wealth and others. Exploration makes the world better and better. So, exploration should always be held.

Fur Trade.

In this picture,I see two elk heads and two beaver skins.
These were going to be the goods of fur trade. I also get the information that these are presented to Queen Elizabeth II as rent. These things looks so expensive. At that time ,ordinary people might not afford it.

It's the map of the areas where fur trade in. I can see the main map of Canada. That shows that fur trade is very important for Canadian History. It might be a 17th century's map of fur trade. Canada might be the centre of fur trade.

We can see a lovely animal. It's a kind of Muridae in Canada. But it's very different from a rat,it could live in water. And even can swim faster than fish.It's also a bit lovely,but it would be killed for fur trade. That's what I don't want.

We can notice that there are two group of people. The group beside the river might be the vendees. Another group are the original inhabitants. The vendors had a lot of goods. They were going to sale vend their fur. It might be the outset of fur trade.

We can see some words in this picture"Fur Traders going down the River Sask . Prince Albert Sask. 1905 ". Almost all the ways of fur trade for the fur traders are by ship. The ship were not big enough, but these group of ship together could be bigger enough. They bought the goods from here and then take to other places which are far away from here to sell.
