He was looking for a water route to Asia. The Silk Road was long, dangerous, and expensive so water route would be faster and get more things to Europe.
He wanted to find a really fast and easy trade route to the Indies, or Asia. The Indies had a bunch of spices, which Europeans did not have.
Europeans sought a water route to Asia primarily to access valuable trade goods such as spices, silk, and precious metals, which were highly sought after in European markets. The overland routes, such as the Silk Road, were long, dangerous, and controlled by intermediaries, leading to high costs and limited access. Additionally, the desire to spread Christianity and gain geopolitical advantages motivated exploration. Finding a direct sea route would allow for more efficient trade and greater profits.
Asia's good can't get to he europeans because of the Muslims so they have to look for a route that they can trade with the Asia directly. if they can find that route then they wont hav o deal with the Muslims.The Christian Europeans did no like the situation, since region and politics. The Europeans wanted a sea route to Asia because of trade.
Because the other routes were to dangerous and too expensive.
