The initial reason many Europeans sailed to explore and eventually colonize the Americas was primarily **to find new trade routes to Asia**. Many European nations were seeking direct access to the riches of Asia, such as spices and silk, which were highly valued in Europe. This desire for trade and economic gain drove exploration. While the spread of Christianity and the search for labor would become significant motivations later, the search for new trade routes was the foremost reason for early exploration.
