Option b. Europeans were interested in taking over foreign land for all of the following reasons except to help liberate people from oppressive governments.

Explanation:

Colonization is the extension of economic and political control over a geografic area on the hands of an already existing nation or government. Historically European nations such as Spain, England, France and Portugal have been between the first countries to expand their territories by conquering unknown lands and settling colonies.

The main reason behind colonization is a political and economic one; by conquering more land the colonizer nation increase its power globally and regionally, and it is also able to take advantage of the natural resources that the conquered land offers.

On the other hand, European colonizers did not organize their excurssions towards exotic and unknown lands with the objective to help liberate people from oppressive governments, as colonizing a territory means that the original civilization that has already been living in that area is forced, in some way, to cease the control of the territory to the colonizing nation.
