- The user of the compass than matches the needle with the notch for North on the compass. From here the user can figure out all other directions. A compass works by detecting the Earths natural magnetic fields via the magnetized metal found inside the compass.
- Compasses made it possible for people to travel much longer distances and explore much more than they previously were able to because the compass ensured explorers could get home. This led to the rapid discovery of new continents, countries and cultures. This discovery would have been much harder and more dangerous without compasses. Compasses also opened up new trade routes like the silk road which lead to it becoming possible for people to purchase and enjoy goods from far off lands. The invention of the compass also lead to the discovery of electromagnetism which proceeded to lead to the creation of the telegraph and electric motor
