I think the Silk Road, Exploration, Expansion & Enlightenment impact my groups goal of no poverty because there were many people living in poverty. Specifically the people of the peasant class. Also many natives lived in poverty because of expansion that had happened. It made it difficult to make money and they were discriminated against. When nations expanded the natives had been forced to work and get paid little to nothing. This caused major poverty and many families struggled at the time.
Sure the silk road provided lots of resources and made merchants lots of money. However it also spread disease on the road. So many countries traded on the route so the disease spread far and wide because of the amount of people from a lot of people. The spread of disease was kind of similar to the coronavirus pandemic because of its effects. It affects peoples quality of living because many people were sick and in poverty.
