So you just conquered Iberia, and you're wondering where to go from here? It's a more common conundrum than you might think. Consider: a big wooden floaty house that goes splish-splash in the atlantic ocean. Anyway, this is a video about Portuguese and Spanish (erm, Castilian) exploration in the Atlantic during the 1400s. Please note my deliberate decision to Nope on out at the turn of the 1500s.
