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. Another European motive was the search for gold to enhance the richness of their home country (often in the name of their ruler(s)/monarch(s)).
