Leif Eriksson sailed back to Norway, where his family was living at the time. Then he met the King (King Olaf the first) and he wanted Leif to go back to Greenland to teach Christianity to the people. So as he was sailing to Greenland, his ship got blown off course and ended up in North America. He was the first European to set foot on this ground but he wasn't the first to see it. An Icelandic sailor named Bjarni Herjulfsson had seen it first but didn't explore the land.
