Several factors hindered widespread exploration in the 1400s, including limited navigational technology and knowledge of the world's geography. The prevailing belief systems and the political fragmentation in Europe also created obstacles, as many nations were focused on internal conflicts and rivalries. Additionally, the lack of efficient ships capable of long sea voyages restricted exploration efforts until advancements in shipbuilding, such as the caravel, became prominent later in the century.
