He liked to explore. Because of his experience, the king of France (Henry II) sent him to find a new passage to Asia through North America, and "to discover certain islands and lands where it is said that a great quantity of gold, and other precious things, are to be found." The king said in his own words. The king gave Cartier the right to claim land for France.
