Giovanni da Verrazzano's trip, undertaken in 1524, aimed to explore the eastern coast of North America on behalf of France, seeking a northwest passage to Asia. He sought to establish trade routes and claim new lands for the French crown. Verrazzano's journey contributed to European knowledge of the New World, particularly the geography and indigenous peoples of the region that would later become the United States. His explorations laid the groundwork for future French exploration and colonization in North America.
