Erik the Red's motivation for exploring and settling in Greenland was largely driven by a desire for adventure and the pursuit of a new life after being exiled from Iceland for committing manslaughter. He sought to establish a new settlement that could provide opportunities for prosperity and land ownership. Additionally, he aimed to create a thriving community, which he marketed as a lush and fertile land to attract settlers. This desire for exploration and settlement reflected both personal ambition and the broader Viking spirit of exploration during the era.
