So, explorers decided to travel by sea to find an alternate route. Vasco de Gama from Portugal began trading by using a sea route. As a result, Portuguese had a strong influence on Southern Asia. De Gama realized that he could not sail using the Mediterranean Sea due to danger as well. De Gama actually became an official in India. Vasco de Gama took several trips to India with some of them being successful and others not so much. However, de Gama is credited with opening the route to Southern Asia.

There are many factors that affect the temperature of an area. The latitude shows the degrees away from the equator. The further away the latitude line is away from the equator, the cooler the temperature. Altitude is similar in that the higher the altitude, the cooler the temperature. Wind from the ocean creates a coolness. So, the further away from the sea you are, the hotter the temperature. Ocean currents bring temperature change. An Alaskan current may drift to the California coast causing cooler temperatures in the ocean. These factors work in different ways. Some temperature changes are drastic and some are subtle. The change in temperature is subtle when moving inland away from the sea. With the latitude degrees, there would be a drastic change with each change in degree.

The way subjects like maths are taught in East Asian schools tends to make a difference as to why students are so successful at the particular subject. Although teachers from the UK criticise this, the method rote memorisation and repitition practiced in Asian schools(specially Chinese and Indian) plays a huge part to the students success in math. East Asian Schools concentrate on basics and mental imprinting on the students. Although obsolete, this system works and schools are working to integrate it with Western methods of teaching. Another reason why Asian students are good at math is the complicated writing systems and the stress of schooling systems to make children bilingual. Bilinguality makes it easier to understand algebras and calculus. The complcated writing systems of Asia such as the Chinese kanjis, Japanese kana and Indian Devnagri stress on strokes and discipline and were the original languages in which math began as a subject.
