During the Age of Discovery, European adventurers explored North America. Some historians say that these men were motivated by God, gold, and glory. What do you think historians mean by the phrase “God, gold and glory”?

I think that was what they were looking for and the reason they were exploring North America so much. God, gold and glory we’re probably there priorities

When historians say the phrase “God, Gold, and Glory” I think that they mean that while European adventurers were exploring North America their motivation was symbolized through these 3 words. God meaning that they were being appreciated. Gold meaning that they have some type of wealth that they earned. Glory meaning that they had strength to do what they were there to do.

The historians believe that the adventurers were motivated by “god, gold and glory”. I think what they really meant by “god, gold and glory” was that they were very religious back then, and they all wanted money and fame. This motivated them to push on through the hard times to get the job done
