Explanation:
Portuguese explores used many technological improvements from the period, including compass, caravels and many others that enabled them to sail easier.
They paid large amounts of money in gold because the spices they were buying were rare and highly appreciated in Europe.
They were not able to defeat the Ottomans, and in general Portugal didn't have quarrels with this country.
