For much the same reasons as the rest of Johann Sebastian Bach's compositions were: to earn a living, basically, and give the rest of the world the opportunity to enjoy all of his compositions.

G major or e minor
The keys of Eb Major and c minor have three flats in their key signatures: Bb, Eb, and Ab.
The minor keys usually have a darker sound and feel to them - as opposed to the major keys which sound generally brighter. The minor keys are based on the sixth degree of a given major scale (lets take D major as an example, if we go up six steps in this scale we get the notes D, E, F♯, G, A, and B). So B minor will have the same key signature as D major (with two sharps). In a major scale there are four semitones between the first and third degrees of the scale but in minor keys there are only three semitones. So in the D major scale the third scale degree (mediant) is F♯ but the same degree in D minor if F♮ (natural). As with the major keys, minor keys can also contain up to seven sharps or flats in their key signature too.
