]]> During the late 15th century and throughout the 16th century, knowledge of terrestrial geography, both physical and human, made great strides. Christopher Columbus, Giovanni Caboto and Amerigo Vespucci explored North and South America and consigned them to history. Meanwhile, Vasco da Gama was the first European to sail across the Indian Ocean to Asia, while Ferdinand Magellan and Francis Drake, who completed the circumnavigation of the globe, confirmed the geographic position of North and South America, which meanwhile became part of maps and world maps, in ever-increasing numbers.

This century of exploration saw the first contacts between different peoples that brought alliances, trade, wars and slavery. These contacts laid the foundation for the modern globalized world.

]]> Agrega 2 is a project developed between the Ministry of Education, Culture and Sport, Red.es and the Autonomous Communities. It is a repository of educational content that can be found organised according to the content curriculum in Secondary Education and Baccalaureate and can be stored and used online. The centralisation covers a wide range of topics. In this case, the chosen theme is the music of the Modern Age around characteristic figures of the period such as the Sevillian composer Francisco Guerrero or Cristóbal Morales. It also discusses Baroque and secular music, highlighting the fundamental role of the organ as a key instrument in the field of composition. The website acts as an editable resource where you can complete small exercises and notes that highlight the highlights.
