Who was the explorer that had the first French settlement in South Carolina and what was the name of the settlement?
A2. Abel Tasman named what is now New Zealand as Stadten Land under the idea that it was a continuation of the S American peninsula. After James Cook's voyages showed this to not be true, the land was renamed on Dutch maps as Niew Zeeland after a province of Holland. Zeeland literally meant sea land - probably in reference to land reclamation.The British Admiralty translation of this was New Zealand.

James Cook did not name New Zealand. New Zealand had already been named by Dutch explorer Abel Tasman in 1642 - over 130 years before Cook's expedition.
No. An early name for Australia was New Holland. It is thought that the name New Zealand may have been a reference to this as both Holland and Zealand (Zeeland) are parts of what is now called the Netherlands.
