Amerigo Vespucci is credited with the discovery and exploration of South America. He played a significant role in recognizing that the lands discovered by Christopher Columbus were part of a new continent, distinct from Asia. His name is the basis for the name "America," which refers to both North and South America, but he himself did not discover North America.
Vespucci's ships were San Antiago, Repertaga, Wegiz, and the Girmand
Amerigo Vespucci was an Italian explorer who played a key role in the early exploration of the Americas. He did not "find" America, as it was already inhabited by indigenous peoples. However, Vespucci's voyages helped to promote the idea of a New World separate from Asia.
Because America wouldn't have been named after Amerigo Vespucci if he didn't discover it. However Columbus was the first to find it but he wasn't completely sure so there for Amerigo gets the credit because he was sure it was a different continent.
