What did Francisco Vasquez de Coronado contribute on his exploration?
QUEEN ISABELLA There seems to be a very serious misapprehension by a lot of users on this site that Ferdinand and Isabella sponsored every expedition that ever followed the one of Columbus. In fact, I am still waiting for the one that asks "Why did Ferdinand and Isabella sponsor the moon landings". To put the facts right, Isabella died six years before de Coronado was born. Ferdinand died when de Coronado was six years old. De Coronado was not sent by anyone, he took it upon himself as Governor of the Kingdom of Nueva Galicia, and with the permission of the Viceroy of Mexico, Antonio de Mendoza. The expedition was financed by de Coronado and de Mendoza.
