AP European History
Unit 5 – Conflict, Crisis, and Reaction in the Late 18th Century
Topic 5.2
What impact did the expansion into Americas during the Age of Exploration have on European economies?
It contributed massively to inflation due to an influx of precious metals from New World mines.
It had no significant impact because Europe maintained its focus on Asian trade routes.
It caused a severe economic recession because Europe invested heavily in expeditions with little return.
It resulted in a decrease in value for precious metals due to overproduction from American mines.
