Jacques Cartier, a French explorer, is best known for his explorations of North America in the 16th century, particularly the St. Lawrence River and what is now Canada. On his journeys, he claimed the land for France and discovered important geographic features, including the island of Montreal and the area around present-day Quebec City. Cartier's voyages laid the groundwork for future French exploration and colonization in North America. He also encountered Indigenous peoples, documenting their cultures and interactions with European settlers.
