Select the two events that sparked trade and exploration in europe?

1. Marco Polo

2. Crusades

Explanation:

Marco Polo,s four year trip to Asia and back to Europe sparked the interest in trade between Europe and the East Indies. This interest sparked almost all explorations after the 1400s and even the discovery of the Americas.

In addition to fighting during the Crusades, trade was an important component as new goods and ideas were exchanged. They came into contact with empires that were in many ways more advanced than their own. The Arabs taught Europeans about advanced mathematics and the numeral system, in addition to medical principles that had long been forgotten.

Crusaders had to buy their own foods and were introduced to new items that they would bring back with them to Europe. These foods included sherbet, sugar, coffee, fruits, and rice. The introduction of new food items helped increase trade with the East.

Everyday household items were also bought from Muslim traders and included mirrors, textiles, carpets, and sailing compasses. It became obvious that the east was technically more advanced. When these goods were brought West, demand for trade was enhanced. Many of the goods were thought to be exotic in nature and the wealthy felt compelled to buy them. The increased demand for these items sent merchants to the east permanently to establish trade networks. These trade ties led to a regulated currency system that enabled fair trade between the two parties.

one of the negative side effects were the economic losses the events of september 11th caused. many, many people lost their jobs as a result of a downturn in the economy after the terrorist attacks.
