The Age of Exploration began in the country of Portugal in the early 15th century continuing until the early 17th century. The exploration was headed by Henry the Navigator. According to history, Henry ordered several ships along the horizon in order to explore the map specifically the western part of Africa. The exploration was considered to be the farthest exploration that was ever made during that time, and it posed many risks and challenges to the explorers in searching for new lands in unknown territories, thus their exploration has contributed to mapping the western part of Africa.
