One reason is that he figured out Columbus didn't sail around the world to India like he thought but had discovered an entirely new country. He's also who the US is named after
yes he did and he was very scared
If Amerigo Vespucci hadn't become an explorer, than America wouldn't have been named after him and it wouldn't be called America!
well one way was he inspired many other explorers to travel
I do belive by the biogrophies that I have read and written for history projects when a young child that Amerigo Vespucci slept on what normal people or sailors or even exploers slept on was a bed and I belive that it is found on the first flooor of the ship.
well, Amerigo Vespucci found the US and its under the history and Society category
it was about 1509 and i know this because I'm a history scholar who graduated last year.
Amerigo Vespucci was the first to discover that North and South America was not part of Asia, and therefore America is named after him.
I remember seeing one recreated in my history textbook for my 5th grade students. I can't tell you where it is located.
Amerigo is important because he was one of the early explorers of the New World, he was the first one who come up with the Idea that these places he had visited where not part of Asia (as Columbus thought) but rather were part of a New World, and also the continents of North and South America were named in his honor.
Vasco Nunez de Balboa. He also explored Panama later in 1513
To prove that Asia wasn't Asia, but a new world! Or... He was remembered in history because he made a speicial map that had more land than anyone else's map!
