The goal for the first voyage of Christopher Columbus was to reach the West Indies.
Christopher Columbus's voyage took place in 1492 when he sailed across the Atlantic Ocean from Spain in search of a new route to Asia. He mistakenly landed in the Americas, thinking he had reached India. This discovery led to the eventual colonization of the Americas by Europeans. However, Columbus was not the first to reach the Americas, as indigenous peoples had already inhabited the land for thousands of years prior to his arrival.
Leif Erikson's first voyage was important because he is believed to be one of the first Europeans to reach North America, around the year 1000, several centuries before Columbus. This voyage helped to establish early contact between Europeans and the indigenous peoples of North America, contributing to the cultural exchange and the history of exploration in the Americas.
