Since Marco Polo got back from his trip to Asia with some of the many riches there, more and more people wanted to go to Asia as well and start a trade route. Soon people wanted to try other ways to get there, by going under Africa and west. In these new lands that the explorers found, they killed the and enslaved the natives and traded them to back their empire. In these new places they also settled and expanded their empire. So in total there are 3 main reasons: (1)Riches and resources that could only be found in the newly discovered areas wich brought wealth and happiness back to the explorer's empire. (2)The explorers would commonly be brutal and enslave the natives and send them back to their home land for money. Or they could just kill and extinct them, very few explorers would ally with natives and keep their alligance. (3)What almost every explorer did with the new land that he discovered was conquer it in the name of his empire by force or colonizing there by making new towns and through that expanding their empire.
