At the top, in green: shipping routes of various nationalities. Below: those nationalities shown in isolation. Red is for British ships, yellow for Spanish, white for French and orange for Dutch.

The Spanish mainly kept to the Atlantic, crossing over to their possessions in the Americas. The French confined themselves to the North Atlantic, heading mainly towards the Caribbean.
