Many things don't seem important in history but to know how we're here now, we have to know what came before us. Much of this started in the 1400s. The world was moving then, rich empires served as Patrons (people they could pay to study, explore, or create art for the empire). Patronage was important it led to advances in knowledge through trade routes. (An area used by merchants for economic purposes) After patronage was settled though, Europe came to North and South American many tribes were developing quickly. The Iroquois Confederacy was a "tribe" near the Great Lakes. They were gaining much power over trade and they traded cash crops such as tobacco. The Aztecs are a different story though, they were expanding greatly. Aztec rulers were becoming patrons, mainly fore poets. As for the Incas, their rulers were also patrons! They were patrons for inventors that made and developed technologies. These technologies were for farming, medicine, and bridge building. L
