It is the first one, “the need for raw materials, fuel and manufactured goods.” Choices 2 and 3 are out because in 2, it’s suggesting that Europe has the finished goods and they’re putting it into Asia and Africa, while it started in Asia. And Choice 3 was during the Age of Exploration which was in the 15th century. By the late 1800’s, they’ve basically discovered the possible trade routes and such. And Europeans weren’t interested in learning about about Ancient Asian or African, considering Social Darwinism or the White Mans Burden.
