The correct answer is the catholic church was interested in gaining new converts to the religion.

The exploration of the New World by Europeans countries was heavily influenced by religion. A perfect example of this would be Spain.

Spain, a predominantly Catholic country, saw exploration as a new way to increase the amount of Catholics on a global scale. These Spanish conquerors saw the conversion of Indians to Catholicism as a means to save their souls from their "savage" ways. This idea of converting Indians (aka Native Americans) to Catholicism was based on the concept that Europeans were superior to Indians.

Answer:

The constitution limits the powers of the executive branch because the separation of powers divides the powers of the government into three separate branches and restrains any branch to have too much power. The executive branch can veto any law brought to it.
