Describe the region each European powers explored

The exploration of the coastlines of the Indian Ocean and the China Sea. Trade, across the land bridges and through the gulfs linking those parts of Asia, Africa, and Europe that lie between the Mediterranean and Arabian seas, was actively pursued from very early times

Portugal, Spain, France and England were transformed from small territories into nation-states with centralized authority in the hands of monarchs who were able to direct and finance overseas exploration.

Hope it helps you my dear:)
