Explanation:

The Age of Discovery is also known as Age of Exploration and it refers to an early period between the 15th century and 17th century in Europe. It was a period that was typically characterized by sea-faring by European countries such as Portugal and Spain to explore various geographical regions around the world.

The Age of Discovery is notably and famously known for exploration through sea-faring (ocean travel) and it led to the discovery of the New World (America), as well as other unknown geographical locations.

Some prominent examples include the Columbian Exchange, the transatlantic exploration (voyage) by Christopher Columbus, Portuguese discoveries (Azores and Archipelagos of Madeira), etc., across the Atlantic, Pacific, and Indian Oceans.

Henry the Navigator also known as Dom Henrique of Portugal or Duke of Viseu was a Portuguese prince. He was born on the 4th March, 1394 in Porto, Portugal and he died on the 13th of November, 1460 in Sagres, Portugal.
