What cultures were involved in long-distance boat expeditions in the fifteenth century? When and why did the Iberian peninsula become the focal point for global maritime exploration?

Answered by Ms. Sue
Spain and Portugal were the primary long-distance explorers in the 1400s. Prince Henry (the Navigator) of Portugal funded ships that explored Africa's coast. He was very interested in finding a sea route to India.
