The purposes of Spain and Portugal’s exploration of the world were:

i) Acquiring new territories- Both rulers of Spain and Portugal wanted to rule new lands. The Portuguese spread their empire down the western coast of Africa to the Congo, along the west coast of India, and eventually to Brazil on the eastern coast of South America. While, The Spanish established their first European settlements in the Americas, beginning in the Caribbean and, by 1600, they had extended throughout the Central and South America.

ii)Searching the seas-  In the 1400s, European merchants from Spain and Portugal made a profit by selling spices shipped overland from Asia. They hoped to find a new sea route to Asia to trade for spices. In 1488, for example, a Portuguese ship became the first to sail around the southern tip of Africa. While, Christopher Columbus took an expedition and sailed west from Europe in 1492, to reach Asia.

the hollywood film industry of 1950 was threatened on several different fronts. television broadcasting was rapidly becoming the dominant entertainment medium in the united states. the paramount anti-trust consent decree requiring separate ownership for production companies and theater chains had gone into effect on 1 january 1950. large numbers of young men and women were marrying, having children, and moving to the suburbs, which affected the viability of downtown first-run movie theaters. foreign revenues were endangered by protectionist tactics including quota systems, high taxes, and blocked funds. finally, the morality and patriotism of hollywood films and filmmakers were under attack from government, religious, and citizens' groups.
