He found that you could sail round the bottom of south America. He was also the second person to sail around the world.

Drake claimed land North of San Francisco Bay along California's coast. He met friendly Indians and was able to trade with them. Drake claimed the land for England and named it New Albion which we now call Drake's Bay. I hope that's enough info. I am also looking for other claimed lands by Drake.
