America became colonized primarily due to European exploration and the desire for new trade routes, resources, and land. Spain, France, England, and other European powers established colonies in the Americas during the 15th to 17th centuries, driven by economic ambitions and the spread of Christianity. The availability of vast, uninhabited lands and the potential for wealth from agriculture and Natural Resources attracted settlers. The colonization process often involved the displacement and exploitation of Indigenous populations, which had profound and lasting impacts on the continent.
