Age of Sail
Historical era when sailing ships dominated global trade and warfare
Age of Sail
The Age of Sail is the period in European history from the mid-15th or 16th century to, at the latest, the mid-19th century, in which the dominance of sailing ships in global trade and warfare culminated. Marked by the introduction of naval artillery, the Age of Sail ultimately reached its highest extent at the advent of steam power. Enabled by the advances of the related age of navigation, it is identified as a distinctive element of the early modern period and the Age of Discovery.
