During the Age of Exploration, Portuguese explorers navigated the western coast of Africa, seeking new trade routes and establishing colonies. Chinese maritime expeditions, particularly under Admiral Zheng He in the early 15th century, also ventured along the coasts of Southeast Asia and the Indian Ocean, but their primary focus was not on Africa.
