The development of the Silk Road, which was an ancient connection of routes between the East and West, led to cultural interaction between Asia, Africa, and Europe.
The Silk Road led to the economic and industrial development of countries such as Japan, China, India, Iran, Arabia, Afghanistan, and Djibouti/Eritrea/Ethiopia/Somalia. Religions, philosophies, goods, technologies, sciences, cultural ideas, and even disease (such as the plague) spread as a result of the Silk Road.
