Describe the economic theory that encouraged european nations to colonize north america

Below.

Explanation:

There was a competition that kept growing between rising nation states. This fueled Europe's need to explore and colonize land. People also had the idea that new land provided new resources for Europe. North America has a lot of resources, more specifically trees. I read somewhere that Europe (more specifically Britain) doesn't have a lot of resources which NA would provide for them. Wealth, the importance of trade, and christianity also played a part in their exploration.

Hope this helped you a bit. :)
