Verrazano, Cartier, and Hudson were all explorers searching for a northwest passage to Asia, specifically a route that would allow for faster trade with the lucrative markets of the East Indies. Verrazano explored the eastern coast of North America for France, Cartier sought to establish French claims in Canada, and Hudson, sailing for both England and the Dutch, aimed to find a direct route through North America to the Pacific. Their expeditions contributed to European exploration and colonization of North America.
