Religious aims (God)

Europeans hoped to spread Christianity to people throughout the world and to drive Muslims out of other lands.

Renaissance spirit

Europeans adventurers wanted to test the limits of human ability and to explore the unknown. Discover far away places and settle in the new lands.

Improvements in technology

The hull design was improved and could ride out ocean storms.

They could also put canons on the decks of these ships).

They developed better navigational instruments (astrolabe, could tell north and south of the equator by the position of the stars

magnetic compass, told direction accurately)

more accurate maps with the discovery of how to find the longitude.Explanation:

the process is called revolution because it was a process of great economic-social transformations that began in england in the xviii century.

the industrial mode of production spread throughout much of the northern hemisphere throughout the xix and early xx centuries.

the effect of this revolution was the distance between the countries, with respect to economic and political power.   after all, not all industrialized at the same time, remaining in the condition of suppliers of raw materials and agricultural products to the industrialized countries.

these differences mark to this day the nations of the world that are divided between developed and developing countries. one way to measure whether a country is advanced is to assess how industrialized it is.
