According to the History Channel, Europeans had motives for exploring the new world such as God, Gold, and Glory.
Europeans felt it was their Christian duty to spread the word of God through Christianity.

Europeans also explored for glory and to promote their home country’s power , show off their military might, and to spread their influence.
