4000 years ago it’s 2000 BC and the biggest cities in the world are made of 5000 people they are located along the great rivers of the seven continents of the world. The Rhine river in Europe, the Danube river, the Volga river, the Euphrates river the Nile river again just river, Congo river, Indus river And the yellow river 3000 years ago, man learned how to smelt soft metals they would find soft metals in the river basin understanding that if he uses heat, he can conform these materials to different shapes. This was essential for tool making, and they were beginning to use iron which had to be made hotter in order to be formed into different shapes. It was stronger than bronze and copper and it’s harder to make things out of it because it has to be made hotter to conform it mold it. This is the bronze age the Iron Age taking us to the Christian’s year zero 2000 years ago at that time any water travel was done with small boats Carrying handfuls of people and moved along the rivers because the ocean was too big the ocean was too vast and dangerous for a small boat. It was this time that Egypt developed a strong need for materials. There is a nearby Kingdom named Phonecia modern day Lebanon 2000 years ago the Egyptians have made already three expeditions. Across the shore to Lebanon Phonecia to establish a trading port to be able to ship cedar timber back to Egypt in large amounts that cedar timber was essential for building one thing in particular a big ship only ships. This material was explicitly for the technology of building ships and fulfilling the Egyptians long desire to reach the southern end of the Red Sea. They took all of the cedar and brought it back to the grand Nile Delta, where ships would be so valued, highly valued here more than anywhere then they built a canal that would allow the Nile to connect to the Red Sea. That was the first time they were able to get Any water travel from the Mediterranean Sea through the Nile across the canal into the Red Sea the first time that any shore of the Mediterranean Sea had ever traveled by water into the southern seas towards the Arabian Sea.
On the water 2000 years ago, any kind of trade from the east across the world to the west was moving up the yellow river onto the Tibetan plateau across thousands of kilometers of desolate Highlands Baron land, and in hospital to human life, an incredible journey, and the reason why someone would do this journey is that the largest cities in the world are upon the largest rivers in the world, and the largest rivers are in China, the largest rivers are formed due to mountain ranges geological processes which generate water rivers that were so bountiful that they could share this bounty, they could spread this bounty to all of the world because they had the most things a great fertility they were sending it and anyone who wanted these things which they did not have before they came here and saw that things were strongly accumulated here on the big rivers The working together of the big city made them economically powerful and with bountiful material they were travel with caravans on the land across Iran across Iraq, crossing a baron wasteland of desert over to the area near the Tiberius lake where there were established kingdoms, and it is the only way to take the land bridge across the Bosporus straight in traveling by land to Europe from the far east. The final destination who controlled trade 2000 years ago at Italy
This time in the history of mankind 2000 years ago is known as the time of antiquity. The iron age has ended this transforms into the middle age 1000 years ago. 1000 years ago is the middle age of man 500 years ago begins the modern era and it continues until 100 years ago and during this time there is an incredible transformation of humanity and it takes its roots in technology. So it is 600 years ago and we are now going to transform from the middle age into the modern era. It’s the year 1401 The first ship to have ever traveled an oceanic distance is going to depart from the port at Europe and it’s going to sail down the shore of Africa, Westshore of Africa and down the coast and it would be 88 years later that the first vessels are going to be able to move from Europe to India, so this is Europe. There are strong, productive economies, developing in India and the Europeans understand this to be life and death the end of life as they know it The end of their existence so in a savage, desperate journey, they are going to travel from the shore of Europe across the Atlantic ocean to the coast of Brazil in south America following the ocean tide in a sailboat weeks after weeks of human trial at sea, which cost so many men their life and never ceased to devour the lives of sailors for every voyage made. Then to resupply and re-launch that ship because they are sailing across the south Atlantic following the Trade winds to the western shore of Africa around the south most tip passing the Cape of Good Hope.
They are going to use a sailboat in 1488 500 years ago and cross this distance in three months following the trade wind they are going to depart from South America to the tip of Africa and spend another three months just sailing at less than 10 knots across this ocean, they are going to round the tip of Africa, staying along the shore to the east Shores of Africa out onto the horn of Africa They’re going to wait there on the horn of Africa for the wind to blow once again the seasonal wins, and when the wind is right, they are going to come across Arabian peninsula south of the Arabian Peninsula and land at Surat here in India at the panhandle in West India. They come to load up their ships with goods and to establish a trade relationship, which will allow for the next 100 years over the next 100 years 5000 ship ship after ship after ship with loads after loads after loads and it would be entirely like Santa Claus this is the merriest Christmas loads upon loads of things that you never had that no one ever had and no one could ever get porcelain silver, coffee, salt, metal, cotton salt, indigo pepper, riches upon riches and boat loads of boat loads, and they were carrying them from India to Europe transformational and like heaven, like paradise, the bounty of heaven coming down upon Europe things that they had never had.
