AI overview
The 1770s was a decade marked by major global transformations, including European exploration of the Pacific Ocean under James Cook, the American colonies' declaration of independence from British rule, and the expansion of European company control in India. This period matters because these events fundamentally reshaped world geography, political boundaries, and the balance of power between European nations and their colonies for centuries to come.
