Answer;

A.) There was a need for cheaper routes along the Mediterranean and the East was becoming tumultuous.

Explanation;

-The European Age of Exploration began in the early fifteenth century and was fueled by competition between various evolving empires and the quest for economic, intellectual, and religious growth.

-Europeans (namely the Portuguese) were primarily enchanted from earlier conquests of Ceuta and stories of inland christian kingdoms that were rich. Therefore, the Portuguese slowly inched around Africa to try to reach Asia. Meanwhile, some explorers believed that by circumnavigating earth, they could reach Asia.
