The main aim of Cartier's expeditions was to find a northwest passage to Asia, which was believed to be a direct route to the lucrative spice trade. Additionally, he aimed to explore and claim new territories for France, specifically in North America. He also sought to establish profitable fur trading relationships with the indigenous peoples of the region.
Jacques Cartier was a skilled navigator and explorer who led three expeditions to North America on behalf of France. He was able to establish relationships with Indigenous peoples, such as the Iroquois and St. Lawrence Iroquoians, and gather valuable geographical and cultural information about the region. Cartier's talents as a cartographer and leader helped to expand French knowledge of the New World.
Spanish leaders may have exaggerated reports of their expeditions to impress their superiors, secure additional funding for future expeditions, or to maintain their status and reputation within the Spanish empire. Exaggerations could also serve to boost morale among crew members and attract more participants for future expeditions.
The expeditions of Hernan Cortes resulted in the conquest of the Aztec Empire in present-day Mexico. Francisco Pizarro's expeditions led to the conquest of the Inca Empire in present-day Peru. Both conquests greatly expanded Spanish influence in the Americas.
The first known black explorer is likely Estevanico, a North African slave who accompanied Spanish expeditions in the early 16th century, including the NarvΓ‘ez and de Vaca expeditions to North America. Estevanico played a significant role as a scout and interpreter during these expeditions.
People in the past went on expeditions for various reasons, such as exploration, discovery of new lands, resources, trade routes, scientific research, or to spread their culture or religion. Expeditions were often motivated by a sense of curiosity, competition with other nations, desire for wealth, or the quest for fame and glory.
