Question

Why did European countries want to find a sea route to Asia?

Answer 1

Answer:

(C) They wanted to find a cheaper and faster way to trade with Asia

Explanation:

The European countries wanted to find a sea route to Asia for their own profit. This would be to bypass the existing trading routes controlled by foreign powers and gain direct access to the spices and other goods of Asia.

Europeans also desired a direct sea route to Asia, because the land trade routes were expensive and dangerous.
