THE LAST WARS OF RELIGION 234. The Expansion of Europe. — As the sixteenth century had seen the acquisition by Spain and Portugal of vast colo- nial empires, the first chiefly in the Americas, the other chiefly in Afric...a and Asia, so the seventeenth century was to see the English, the Dutch, and the French establish colonies either on the ruins of Spanish and Portuguese ventures or in lands hitherto unexplored. Settlements and trading stations were made on the coast or along the rivers of North America, on the shores of India, and among the Malay Islands. Hencefor- ward Europe was to have constantly increasing interests be- yond its own borders, and, instead of being barely able to defend itself upon the narrow peninsula stretching between the Medi- terranean and the northern seas, it was to push back steadily the confines of barbarism or of rival civilizations until the day when it should dominate the earth.
