Europeans were exposed to Imperialism primarily due to their desire for economic expansion, strategic competition, and national prestige. The Industrial Revolution fueled the need for raw materials and new markets, prompting European powers to seek colonies. Additionally, advancements in technology and military capability allowed them to conquer and control vast territories. This drive was further motivated by a belief in cultural superiority and a mission to spread Western civilization.
