Why did the Pope divide the world in the treaty of tordesillas?

Hey there! I'm happy to help!

After Columbus discovered the Americas, Spain didn't want Portugal to interfere because the Portuguese were also fanatic explorers.

So, the Pope came up with a compromise where the Spanish could colonize everything West of the Line of Demarcation (a line of longitude that cut through Brazil) and the Portuguese could only colonize everything West of it. This was agreed on in the Treaty of Tordesillas.

This is why so many more countries in the Americas speak Spanish and only one main one speaks Portuguese (Brazil), which is also probably one of the most Eastern parts of the Americas and was probably of Portugal's side of the line of demarcation.

Have a wonderful day! :D

health care plans in the united states having high costs because they are focusing on providing quality programs for different groups of individuals. the quality of the service is based on money flow received from the members. without this investment, couldn't be possible a constant scientific searching to prevent death and illness caused because of low levels of health investigation. currently, the complaints are not about the highest cost, but about the coverage and benefits to access the necessary health services required by the members.  

besides, if a global health system is established the quality levels will fall down because of the standardized of the health. the access to care will increase but the quality will be low because it depends on the money invested.
