Who find American?
Christopher Columbus is often credited with "finding" America in 1492 when he landed in the Bahamas, although he never set foot on the mainland of what is now the United States. It's important to note that Indigenous peoples had been living in the Americas for thousands of years prior to Columbus's arrival. Additionally, Norse explorer Leif Erikson reached parts of North America around 1000 AD, long before Columbus.

Why was Columbus accredited for discover of North America and not Lief Ericsson?
That's a good question. Well everyone credits Christopher Columbus because accordingly, he was sailing around a found North America. There isn't any information in the history textbooks talking about Lief Ericsson. So maybe that's why he isn't mentioned for finding North America
Who found the new world sir Walter Raleigh or Christophor Columbus?
Neither, Lief Erikson found the new world in 1100-1200. But Christophor Columbus found it in 1492 after lief erikson left so he gets credit for it. ---------------------- While the above is correct, to help with the Columbus / Raleigh issue that is raised here the following facts are relevant. Christopher Columbus is credited with finding the new world (actually he first saw the Bahamas) at 2 a.m. on October 12, 1492. He did not actually reach the American mainland until his third voyage in 1498. Sir Walter Raleigh was not born until about 1552 (his exact date of birth is not known). Thus Columbus' voyages of the new world predate Raleigh by at least 50 years.
