Dutch exploration and colonization in the 17th century was driven by a desire to establish trade routes and gain access to valuable resources in Asia, Africa, and the Americas. The Dutch East India Company, one of the most successful trading companies at the time, played a significant role in expanding Dutch influence globally. Economic interests, competition with other European powers, and a quest for wealth and power were key motivations behind Dutch expansionism.
