Why did European nations want to gain empires?

European nations sought to gain empires in the 19th and early 20th centuries primarily for economic, political, and strategic reasons. Colonies provided access to valuable resources, new markets for industrial goods, and opportunities for investment. Additionally, imperial expansion was driven by national pride and competition among European powers, as empires were seen as a measure of national strength and prestige. Furthermore, the desire to spread culture and religion also motivated many nations during this period.


What motives led to Iberian overseas expansion?

As ever, I would say that the motives behind expansion are inevitably pecuniary. South America was unpopulated by other Western civilisation, and it would prove far easier to conquer such nations so far away compared to their attempted conquest of civilised countries, like Britain and France. They expanded into many other regions of the world, including having other colonies in Europe, but what caused them to do this would be mainly to gain money (for the King, of course) and to boost the national status and obtain a substantial empire.

Why did the colonies become involved in World War 1?

The colonies became involved in World War I largely due to their ties to European powers, as many were part of the British, French, and other empires. When these nations declared war, their colonies were drawn in to support the war effort through military contributions and resources. Additionally, colonial leaders often viewed participation as a way to assert their loyalty, gain political recognition, and push for greater autonomy post-war. The war's global scale also meant that conflicts in Europe quickly impacted colonies, leading to direct involvement.

Which was not reason for the establishment of European overseas colonies?

One reason that was not a primary factor for the establishment of European overseas colonies was the desire for cultural exchange. While some Europeans sought to spread their culture and religion, the main motivations were typically economic gain, resource extraction, and strategic advantage. The quest for new trade routes and the expansion of territory were far more significant drivers of colonization than the intent to share or exchange cultures.
