A compass could help you navigate by indicating the direction of north, enabling you to maintain your course and stay on track to reach your destination. This is especially important when out at sea where landmarks may not be visible.
The invention of the compass, specifically the ability to use magnetic compasses for navigation, allowed sailors to determine their direction regardless of the wind's direction. This enabled them to navigate more accurately across vast distances on the open sea.

The compass, invented by the Chinese, changed the world many ways. 1. It guided many explorers on voyages like Zheng He on his 7 voyages, one from china to africa, and the well known Colombus to America. 2. Trade flourished around the world because it made long voyages possible 3. It replaced landmarks and stars that couldn't be seen in bad weather etc.

The compass has been an important part of navigation, especially for ships at sea. The are important because they allow ships to steer in the direction they choose to follow the compass
Answer: If you have a map and you can read your coordinate from the sun and the stars the compass will tell you were north is then you will know in what direction to go to get to land.

The original purpose of the magnetic compass was to help sailors to know which direction they should point their ships while they were sailing beyond the sight of land. On the open sea, you need some way of figuring out where you are and in which direction your destination lies, since the sea is relatively featureless and looks pretty much the same everywhere.

European explorers used the compass as a navigational tool to determine their direction when traveling by sea. By utilizing the magnetic properties of the Earth, the compass helped sailors maintain their course and avoid getting lost during long voyages.
The magnetic compass solved the problem of navigation, allowing sailors and travelers to determine their direction accurately, even when landmarks or the sun were not visible. This invention revolutionized long-distance travel and exploration by providing a reliable method for determining direction at sea or in unfamiliar territories.
