Portuguese Exploration
Prince Henry the NavigatorSlide11
The Race to Find a Water Route
Portugal took the lead in the search to find the first water route to Asia.
Portugal decided to spend as much money as was needed to reach the goal.
The Portuguese were the first Europeans to explore the unknown world, and they were the first to sail around the southern tip of Africa. Slide12
Prince Henry 1394-1460
Prince Henry established a school for the study of navigation, mapmaking, and shipbuilding in 1420.
His goal was to find a route to the rich spice trade of the Indies and to explore the west coast of Africa. Slide13
Exploring the Coast of Africa
During the two-year period from 1444 to 1446, Prince Henry intensified the exploration of Africa, sending between 30 and 40 of his ships on missions.
The last voyage sponsored by Prince Henry sailed over 1,500 miles down the African coast. Slide14
A Lasting Legacy
Although Prince Henry never sailed on the expeditions, the voyages that he paid for in the mid-1400s helped launch Portugal into the front of the race to find a sea route to the Indies.
