Abel Tasman was a sea explorer who made several significant discoveries.
Tasman was an employee of the Dutch East India Company. He is most famous for being the first European to discover the islands of Tasmania (which he named Van Diemen's Land) and New Zealand. However, he also did not choose to explore further, assuming that the two lands were part of a larger continent.
He is also credited with being the first European explorer to discover the Fihian Islands and Tonga. In addition, he sailed around Australia from some distance, proving that the continent was not part of Asia.
