The policy that European nations should not interfere with the Americas was known as the Monroe Doctrine. It was put forth by our fifth president, James Monroe.

The European incentives for the conquest of the Americas were largely driven by the lure of wealth and power. European powers were primarily motivated by economic gain religious conversion and a desire for political and military domination. Economic gain: The discovery of the Americas had the potential to bring great wealth to the Europeans. Explorers were seeking gold silver and other valuable resources to bring back to Europe. Religious conversion: Many Europeans saw the conquest of the Americas as an opportunity to spread Christianity throughout the New World. Political and military domination: European nations sought to extend their political and military control over the Americas as well as to gain access to new trade routes and markets. These incentives were a major factor in the European conquest of the Americas and ultimately led to the colonization of the New World by European powers.
If they found raw materials, they could have new goods for the market. If they had new goods for the market, they got more money. This was very good for the European countries, because they believed in mercantilism at the time.
Christopher Columbus' exploration to the Americas crossed into territory belonging to European nations like Spain and Portugal. Columbus's first voyage in 1492 was commissioned by the Spanish Crown, leading to the subsequent Spanish colonization of parts of the Americas.
