The French sent Giovanni da Verrazzano to America in 1524 primarily to explore and establish a French presence in the New World. His mission aimed to find a westward route to the riches of Asia and to assess the potential for trade and colonization along the North American coast. Verrazzano's voyages helped to map the eastern seaboard and provided valuable information about the geography and indigenous peoples of the region.

The first successful French colony in North America was founded by Giovanni de Verrazano.
The French sent Giovanni da Verrazzano to explore the coast of North America in the hope of finding a sea route to Asia and to establish trade connections. Verrazzano's exploration ultimately led to France's claim on portions of North America.
The impact Giovanni da Verrazano had on North America is that he explored unknown lands under King Francis I of France, thus, establishing French claim to these parts.
The French sent a force to America in 1780.
ChamplainItalian-born Giovanni da Verrazano was the first to explore the region between Florida and Newfoundland for a route to the Pacific Ocean. He later claimed Florida for France, making him the founder of the first "permanent" French colony in North America. Because there are no French colonies left in America today, none of them were completely permanent.
Verrazano explored the eastern coast of America in 1524 commissioned by the French king seeking a northwest passage to Asia. He hoped to find a route that would allow for easier trade between Europe and Asia by sailing through North America.
William Pitt sent his troops to North America to battle the French. Pitt wanted full control of North American and in order to have that he needed to send the French out.
