In the case of the British, it was the desire to conquer more lands and increase the size of the British Empire. They were particularly keen to prevent France from laying claim to more lands. The Dutch and Portuguese often explored new land they came across by accident whilst trading with Asia and the East Indies. Some sought simply to be the first to make a particular journey, gaining fame and fortune. The Australian explorers Burke and Wills fall into this category. Others desperately needed new land. This was the motivation behind the first Australian crossing of the Blue Mountains, by Lawson, Wentworth and Blaxland. Continuing on from this, others sought still more fertile lands that could be settled - many Australian explorers such as Sturt and Cunningham explored for this reason. For some, it was just the excitement of the unknown: finding a river and wishing to trace it to its source, or climbing a mountain just because it was there.
