The document discusses the rise of the West and its impact on global trade networks between the 15th-19th centuries. European maritime powers like Portugal, Spain, France and Britain established colonial outposts around the world, disrupting existing trade routes and establishing new economic systems centered around raw materials extracted from colonies. This colonial expansion connected most of Afro-Eurasia and the Americas into a single global economy dominated by Western European interests for the first time in history. While indigenous cultures survived, colonialism profoundly affected civilizations and established Western political and economic hegemony that still shapes the modern world order.
