The way I think overseas commitment influenced the rise and fall of nations in Europe is the following.

Powerful European nations started to navigate the oceans since the so-called Age of Exploration. Prince Henry of Portugal was one of the first to build a powerful navy to explore and conquer in the name of his nation. Other European monarchies followed through, as was the case of Spain, France, and Great Britain.

They got inspiration from the "Three Gs" that are often used to summarize the motivation for European exploration are Gold, God, and Glory.

The age of exploration had European nations more power due to the discovery of new territories and the colonization of those territories. They discovered new lands where raw materials and natural resources abounded. So the three "G's" that motivated that explorations were Gold, the monarchy knew that many territories had plenty of gold and the crowns wanted that god to increase their wealthiness. God, they tough that they had to evangelize the natives Indians of that far lands to make them Christians. Ang Glory, to get supremacy over other European nations that were also competing for new territories.
