Solution

The correct answer is D. Identification of more efficient trade routes to Asia was not a result of Spain's early exploration of the Americas. While Spain did establish trade routes, they were primarily across the Atlantic to the Americas, not to Asia. The primary goal of many early explorers was to find a more efficient route to Asia, but the discovery and subsequent colonization of the Americas did not directly result in this.
