Exploration of new places meant that Europe now had access to new materials, ideas, riches, and people to trade with. For example the potato came from Central America, and tobacco from North America. The Spanish were able to find more gold and treasures. Eventually Europeans conquered these places, like the British, Spanish or Portuguese empires.
