The difference between Zheng He's voyages to the West and European navigators

In order to fulfill the emperor's will, Zheng He went to Southeast Asian countries and African countries to publicize the national prestige, and also arrested Emperor Wen Jian, who is said to have taken refuge in Southeast Asia.

European navigator means to make money. There are two ways to make money. One is to explore by oneself, and the other is to come to China, because China was the first power in the world at that time, and Europeans were eager for it, but Turks and Arabs blocked the passage, so Europeans came through the Atlantic Ocean and discovered America.

Although there is also a national will in it, the purpose is completely different. Of course, the final result for the country and the individual will be very different.
