What new technologies facilitated long-distance communication and
exchange?
Gen. Zhang Jian was introduced to the
“heavenly horse”, which sparked trade along Silk Road. Along this route the stirrup was introduced from Afghanistan. The nomads like this new technology for military purposes giving protection to the traders.

What new innovations in maritime technologies, as well as advanced knowledge of the monsoon
winds, stimulated exchanges along the maritime routes from East Africa to East Asia?
One new technology for sailing along the
Indian Ocean was the lateen sail, which allowed the sailors to maneuver the ship through the monsoon wind. The sail allowed them to travel across the Indian Ocean, unlike the sailors of the Mediterranean Sea, who sailed close to land.
