The late 15th century was a period of great change and progress in many parts of the world. In Europe, the Renaissance began to take shape, with advances in art, science, and technology. In the Americas, Christopher Columbus made his first voyage to the New World. Meanwhile in Asia, powerful empires such as China and Japan were flourishing. The Ottoman Empire was also expanding its reach into Europe during this time period. This era saw major developments in navigation and exploration as well as new forms of warfare such as gunpowder weapons. It was also a time when religious reformers like Martin Luther challenged traditional beliefs and practices that had been accepted for centuries. These changes would have lasting impacts on society for centuries to come.
