Why would a sponsoring country and ruler support explorers who were not from their country?
They might sponsor an explorer for several reasons - and usually did so for a combination of several of these reasons:
- Even if the explorer was not from their country, they could still make claims on discoveries as an agent for the sponsor
- The explorer might possess unique or superior characteristics, skills, and/or knowledge not found among the citizens of the sponsoring country
- The exploration might give the sponsoring country an advantage of being the first to establish a trade route to the explored region
- The exploration might provide a source of valuable resources - or plunder - to the sponsoring country
- The sponsoring country might accrue increased reputation by being the sponsor of an exploration that made some significant discovery
- The sponsoring country might believe they would accrue some spiritual credit with a higher power by using the exploration to spread their religion

Why common for explorers to work for kings and queens of different countries?
Explorers often worked for kings and queens because monarchs provided the necessary funding, resources, and political support for their expeditions. Royal sponsorship also served to enhance a nation's prestige and territorial claims, as explorers sought new lands, trade routes, and riches. Additionally, the backing of a powerful ruler offered explorers protection and legitimacy, encouraging them to embark on risky and ambitious journeys. This symbiotic relationship helped advance both exploration and the interests of the sponsoring monarchs.
