Lack of relationship, Europe and Asia had over a thousand years of history together before Europe tried to sail to them
Europe’s geography also meant sailing was important for war. Rome and Greece fighting over the Mediterranean, later Spain/France and Britain to even have a war. Africa and the Americas were more land based
Wait, was Christianity and the command to spread the gospel message the reason why the age of exploration happened in Europe, as opposed to elsewhere?
No, it was for trade with Asia
China didn’t need to find an alternative path to China
Why didn’t the American people build ships across the ocean? Maybe to Eastern Asia, that would be closer. Africa is also close to Brazil.
