Imagine you are a European explorer in the 1400s. Do you think you would be most motivated by

religious conversion, global market opportunities, or competition with other European nations? Why?

In terms of the 1400s, motivation would come mostly from religious conversion. The 14th century is known as the second to last century of what was called the Middle Ages; in those ages, people really took a deep interest to religion conversion because it’s where most power came from. People also during this time manipulated others into doing things and putting it on the name of God.
