I'm just a kid and this may not be right but according to me he discovered Greenland and Canada. Erik the Red told his men of a sea of worms right under Greenland some of his men crossed Greenland by foot and some took their chances. To tell you the truth there's no sea of worms. Erik the Red went further east and found a land with thick fields of grass, he was probably amazed by everything. Erik the red called this new land vinland because of the grapevines. But like i said I may be wrong about this but forget what everyone says and get this into your head CHRISTOPHER COLUMBUS DIDN'T DISCOVER THE AMERICAS.
Because when Erik the Red (Danish: Erik den Røde) first came back from Greenland, he wanted people to follow him to the new land. And therefore called it GreenLand (A Green Land), to attract people.
