We’ve all done it. You search for one thing on Wikipedia but end up spending an hour on the site. Going down the Rabbit Hole. Once you’re done, you feel mixed. Although you are glad to have “learned so much,” you are also angry at yourself for allowing this to happen. But I have created a short rabbit hole (kind of), but it feels long. It allows you to forget about the surrounding world and to relax. This is the third of five “Down the Rabbit Hole” posts. In each of these posts, there will be a list of clues starting with a Wikipedia link. These clues will lead you to links until you reach the end of the rabbit hole. In each Rabbit Hole, there will be approximately 20 clues. So, please begin.

- Second main body paragraph; the type of ship that the Portuguese pioneered.
- Under “History,” the very first link.
