Moralistic Reasons:
- Religion (e.g. Crusades)
- Retribution/Revenge
- Glory
- Honour
- Power
- To "civilize" "savages" - mostly used by Europeans while they were dividing up the world.
Practical reasons:
- Wealth - Gold etc or just natural wealth; land, resources.
- Power
- Greed for expansion
- To deny an opponent the same area - common during colonization times.
- National Benefit - Peter the Great fought wars to win a port on the Baltic sea - St. Petersburg.
These are a few reasons for invasion.
