What was one reason countries focused so greatly on finding a northwest passage to Asia?

Several reasons.

First was distance. Taking the southern route required sailing south in the Atlantic to clear either Africa or South America, then sailing north to the spice, and silk markets, then back again. A Northwest passage could cut that distance in half.

Associated with distance was risk. The more time spent at sea, the greater the exposure to storms, piracy, disease, ship maintenance issues, and unhappy sailors who occasionally mutinied.

Politics was an issue, too. The Dutch had established a presence on the African Route, and the Spanish were trying to dominate South America and its ports.

England, France, and Russia, major powers of the time were coming late to the party and really trying to find an edge.
