England sponsored John Cabot in the late 15th century to explore new trade routes and territories in the Americas, driven by the desire to compete with Spain and Portugal in the age of exploration. Cabot's mission aimed to find a westward passage to Asia, which could potentially yield valuable resources and trade opportunities. Additionally, England sought to expand its influence and establish a foothold in the New World, which could strengthen its economic and political position in Europe.
