Why did many Europeans in the 1400s want to find a way to get to East Asia?

Many Europeans in the 1400s wanted to find a way to get to East Asia primarily to access valuable spices, such as pepper, cinnamon, and cloves, which were in high demand in Europe for culinary and medicinal purposes. Additionally, there was a desire to establish direct trade routes with Asian markets to bypass the expensive intermediaries in the existing trade networks. The pursuit of new trade routes to Asia was also driven by the desire for wealth, prestige, and the spread of Christianity.
