Vasco da Gama's primary motivation for exploring was to find a sea route to India, which would allow Portugal to access the lucrative spice trade and establish direct trade links with Asia. He aimed to enhance Portugal's wealth and power, competing with other European nations for dominance in trade. Additionally, there was a strong desire to spread Christianity and counter the influence of Islam in the region. His successful voyage to India in 1498 ultimately paved the way for the establishment of a Portuguese maritime empire.
