Question

Which of the following was NOT a reason the early explorers began to make voyages?

Answer 1

The correct answer is C. To make friends with the Native Americans.

Explanation

The discovery of unknown lands during the Age of Exploration (15th century) motivated multiple explorers to make voyages and lead expeditions to conquer and conquest new territories. This included the arrival of Christopher Columbus to the Caribbean Islands in America and later the arrival of Europeans from multiple kingdoms/nations that conquered territory in this new continent. For example, Great Britain and France conquered the North, while Spain conquered the South; also, countries such as Portugal and France controlled small sectors.

Besides this, in most cases, these kingdoms sought natural resources such as gold, silver, some unknown fruits, and other products that would give them economic advantages. Also, their objective was to impose their religion and culture on the native population. This means the intention of explorers was not to make friends with the natives but only take some resources and "educate" natives as explorers consider them as an inferior race. So, the correct answer is C. To make friends with the Native Americans
