ISBN: 9780521457354.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEuropean dominance of the shipping lanes in the early modern period was a prelude to the great age of European imperial power in the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. Yet in the present age we can see that the pre-imperial age was in fact more an age of partnership or an age of competition when the West and Asia vied on even terms.
