General curiosity. The myth that "the world is flat" arose. It's similar to saying, "Why did you explore your garden at a young age?". The human mind has a natural curiosity for exploration. Given a large explorable area, everyone would explore it.
Europe explored Africa, the Americas, Asia, and Oceania. Spain and Portugal were the first to explore the Americas, while France and England explored North America. The Dutch were known for exploring Asia, and Britain explored Australia and New Zealand.
European explorers primarily explored westward and southward, venturing to the Americas, Africa, and Asia. They sought out new trade routes, resources, and territories, leading to the age of exploration from the 15th to 17th centuries.
Europeans explored the darker shaded area (Africa) to search for new trade routes, resources such as gold and ivory, and to spread Christianity. Additionally, Europeans were motivated by a desire for conquest and expansion of their own empires.
Some other European countries that explored and settled in the Americas include Spain, France, England, Portugal, and the Netherlands. Each of these countries established colonies and trading posts in different regions of the Americas during the Age of Exploration.
Europeans explored to find new trade routes to Asia, to spread Christianity, to seek fame and glory, to acquire wealth through the discovery of valuable resources, and to expand their empires and influence.
Initially Europeans explored the Americas in search of gold, silver and precious stones.
Europeans have explored every continent. Europeans never truly explored the continents until the First Age of Imperialism, where they mainly explored the Americas. Europeans never explored the interior of Africa because of its dense jungle areas until the Second Age of Imperialism, where they also explored Asia, Australia & Oceania, and even Antarctica.
