Answer: Colonial conquests and wars.

Explanation:

Many countries expanded the borders of their countries during this period with colonial expansion. During this period, significant geographical discoveries occurred. The first colonial empires were Portugal and Spain. The governments of these countries financed these expeditions to seize natural and mineral resources after the development of new areas.

Colonial politics will be led by other European countries, among which Britain will be the leader. During this period, another vast empire, the Ottoman Empire, expanded. The wars broadened the borders of their empire, primarily at the expense of the Balkan countries.
