For natural resources provided by the colonies and opportunities for trading/doing business.

They were competing for to have the most power and biggest number of colonies with other empires like Spain.

Opportunities to get wealth and have more land.

Some examples of colonies:

Ex. South Africa, Hong Kong, Iraq, Bermuda, Kuwait, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, India (British India) Sri Lanka (Ceylon), Some islands in Caribbean Sea

How were they able to achieve this?

Some reasons were: exploration, charters from the British king/government, trade, largest navy on earth/wars, settlers coming in to new places and multiplying and they claimed the area
