The two main factors that enabled the Portuguese to begin overseas exploration were advances in maritime technology, such as improved ship design and navigation tools, and the support of wealthy sponsors like Prince Henry the Navigator who funded expeditions and encouraged exploration.
Europeans financed overseas exploration through a variety of means, including investments from wealthy individuals, sponsorship from monarchs and governments, partnerships with trading companies, and the promise of lucrative trade routes and resources. Additionally, some expeditions were funded through contributions from religious organizations seeking to spread Christianity.
Prince Henry helped lead Portugal in overseas exploration.
