Abstract

"Wars have been fought and countries discovered over treasured spices. Marco Polo's stories of his trip to China in the late 1200s told of the spice trade in these then unknown lands and brought many Europeans in search of spices. In the 15th to 17th centuries the Spanish, English, Portuguese, and Dutch traders competed in the spice trade from the Far East. By the 1800s America was involved in the spice trade. America's first millionaires made their money in the spice trade."--First paragraph.
