Explanation:

Let's know better each explorer. It's important to know their names and accomplishments.

Francis Drake (1540 - 1596)

Francis Drake was an English explorer. Queen Elizabeth sent Drake to South America as part of England try to stand out itself from Portugal and Spanish on their empires. At the time Drake arrived in South America, that place was under control of the Iberian empires (Portugal and Spain). He returned to England via the Pacific, and it was honored by Queen Elizabeth for his victories. The nickname English Sea Dog was given to him, alongside his mate Richard Hawking, as part of their victory against the Spanish Armada in 1588. The battle was influenced by the English support to the independence of Dutch from Spain, and an attempt of Spain to destroy the English emergent commercial trades in the Atlantic.

Vasco de Balboa (1475 - 1519)

Vasco de Balboa was a Spanish explorer. He made many alliances with the natives during his explorations in the new world. These alliances led him, in 1513, to discover the Pacific Ocean (or Mar del Sul, as he named). The arrival at the Pacific Ocean was made crossing the Isthmus of Panama.

Ferdinand de Magellan (1480 - 1521)

Ferdinand de Magellan was a Portuguese sailor. His proposal to reach India through a new route by the Pacific was refused by Portugal. At that time, the Portuguese empire was strong enough to refuse this proposition with its recent discoveries (especially Brazil in 1500). Anyway, Magellan was commissioned by King Charles I from Spain to do his attempt to reach India through Asia using the Pacific as a route. If Magellan would accomplish this attempt, Spain would obtain a valuable route and could confront Portugal in trade. His expedition was able to accomplish this attempt, but Magellan died in 1521.

Jacques Cartier (1491 - 1557)

Jacques Cartier was a French explorer. Cartier was commissioned by King Francis I of France to explorer the northern parts of North America. His idea was to found a passage to Asia. France, just like England, was trying to surpass Portugal and Spain looking for new lands and trade routes. In 1534, during his explorations, Cartier found the St. Lawerence River, and he was the first to explorer it.

Samuel de Champlain (1567 - 1635)

Samuel de Champlain led the first French settlement in 1608. However, we have to explain this statement. Jacques Cartier tried to create a settlement in 1541, during his explorations of the St. Lawrence River, but the settlement was abandoned due to the bad weather, diseases and other bad aspects.

Jacques Marquette (1637 - 1675)

Jacques Marquette was a Jesuit explorer. He is best known for his traveling trough the Mississipi river.

Which did the nations Western Europe attempt to achieve in the decades following World War II?

Answer:a new wave of imperialism

Explanation:Imperialism and colonialism both dictate the political and economic advantage over a land and the indigenous populations they control, yet scholars sometimes find it difficult to illustrate the difference between the two.[10]: 107 Although imperialism and colonialism focus on the suppression of another, if colonialism refers to the process of a country taking physical control of another, imperialism refers to the political and monetary dominance, either formally or informally. Colonialism is seen to be the architect deciding how to start dominating areas and then imperialism can be seen as creating the idea behind conquest cooperating with colonialism. Colonialism is when the imperial nation begins a conquest over an area and then eventually is able to rule over the areas the previous nation had controlled. Colonialism's core meaning is the exploitation of the valuable assets and supplies of the nation that was conquered and the conquering nation then gaining the benefits from the spoils of the war.[10]: 170–75 The meaning of imperialism is to create an empire, by conquering the other state's lands and therefore increasing its own dominance. Colonialism is the builder and preserver of the colonial possessions in an area by a population coming from a foreign region.[10]: 173–76 Colonialism can completely change the existing social structure, physical structure, and economics of an area; it is not unusual that the characteristics of the conquering peoples are inherited by the conquered indigenous populations.[10]: 41 Few colonies remain remote from their mother country. Thus, most will eventually establish a separate nationality or remain under complete control of their mother colony.[11]
