The source of riches for European traders primarily stemmed from the lucrative trade in spices, silks, and precious metals, particularly during the Age of Exploration. European merchants sought direct access to Asian markets, which were rich in exotic goods that were highly valued in Europe. Additionally, the transatlantic slave trade and the exploitation of colonies in the Americas contributed significantly to the wealth of European traders. This quest for resources and trade routes fueled exploration and colonization efforts across the globe.
