The two correct answers are: the European nations conquered most of Southeast Asia to set up colonies. They built ports and cities to export the region´s natural resources for their own benefit.

Explanation:

The conquering and establishment of colonies in Southeast Asia initiated in the 16th and 17th centuries, with the rush between the Dutch, the Spanish and the Portuguese at first, and then later, in the 18th century, with the arrival of the British and the French. Initially, what these European nations sought was to outdo each other, especially to gain control over the spice trade in Southeast Asia, particularly India. The first such colony was established in 1511, by the Portuguese, when they conquered Malacca. Later on, the other nations took hold of their own colonies and a competition began for the control of the goods produced in these rich lands of Asia.
