Answer:
b. Economic competition against Spain and Portugal and a desire to find a new sailing routes to Asia.
Explanation:
- France, the Netherlands and England, which had a long maritime tradition, made their way north thanks to new technologies and maps, despite Iberian protections.
- The first of these missions was carried out by the British John Cabot. It was the first in a series of French and British missions to explore North America. Spain has largely ignored the northern part of America because there were few people there and far fewer riches than in Central America. Expeditions by Cabot, Cartier, and other explorers greatly hoped to find the Northwest Passage, which would connect with the riches of Asia. This passage was never discovered, but other opportunities were found in their travels, so in the early seventeenth century colonists from numerous northern European countries began settling on the east coast of North America.
- The northerners also became major rivals to the Portuguese in Africa and the Indian Ocean. Dutch, French and British ships began to become accustomed to the Portuguese monopoly and established their own colonies. Gradually, the Portuguese and Spanish markets and contributions declined due to new competitors surrounding their valuable possessions such as Hong Kong. The northerners also took the lead in exploring the last unknown regions of the Pacific Ocean and the North American West Coast.
