Best Answer

Exploration began as early as the 15th century when European nations sought to expand their territories and trade routes. Motivations included economic gain, spreading Christianity, and the pursuit of knowledge. The Age of Exploration was driven by advancements in technology, such as improved navigation tools and ship design, and the desire for new trade routes to Asia.
