Describe the Portuguese explorations Who were the participants and what were their motives?
They had three main motives: God, Glory, and Gold. They wanted to spread their religion/power. Portugal was the first country to explore. Prince Henry wanted to explore the seas but couldn't while he was King so he started his own "school" for navigators. Portugal sailed southward to Africa and established a slave trade. Two of the first Portugal explores were Bartholomew Dias (Found Cape of Good Hope, which he called "cape of storms") and Vasco da Gama (helped create spice trade and was the first one to India). Portugal was the leading POWER on the seas.

What did the peasants revolt want?
All the angry peasats who wanted higher wages, lower taxes and an end to work service. There were around 100,000 (bigger than the World cup final) and their leader was called Wat Tyler, who was killed at Smithfield. Another important guy was the priest John Ball, who preached to the peasants that revolting was a good idea. After the revolt, he was hung, drawn and quartered - the quarters were sent to four different places and put on display. Hope this helps! Anon., 12, West Bridgford School
