Explanation:

The influence and dominance of European countries in Asia date from the beginning of the Great Navigations process, when mainly Portugal, Spain and England formed their colonies. Already in the nineteenth century, European Imperialism in Asia led the division of the continent among the various European powers.

The perspective of European countries continued to be the sourcing of raw materials, but it also became the opening of Asian markets to dispose of European manufacturing output.
