Vasco da Gama ventured to India primarily to establish a direct maritime trade route to the lucrative spice markets of the East. His expedition aimed to bypass the overland routes controlled by Middle Eastern and North African traders, thereby enhancing Portuguese trade and influence. Additionally, he sought to spread Christianity and assert Portuguese dominance in the region. His successful voyage in 1497 ultimately opened the sea route to India, significantly impacting global trade.

No, Vasco de Gama did not go to college. He was too busy trying to figure out a water route to Asia to go to any college. Plus, he did not have that much money.

The country that sponsored Vasco De Gama was Portugal, they wanted him to go out and find a safer route to Inda so that they could get spices for their meat. They wanted the spices because they used salt to keep the meat from going off. ( It didn't taste very nice who could blame them.
he didnt go to school.
