The Age of Exploration: Chapter 1, Exercise 3 — Possible Solution
======================================================================

THE DEBATE
"Discovery" describes lands as uncovered when they were only unknown to
Europeans and were inhabited by indigenous peoples. Alternatives include "Age
of Exploration" and "Age of Contact".

A REASONED CHOICE (example)
"Exploration" describes the voyages without claiming the places were empty,
while "contact" emphasizes the meeting of peoples. Either is defensible if you
say why.

CAUTION
The source does not settle the debate.
