Samuel de Champlain set out to sea primarily to explore and establish French colonies in North America. He aimed to expand France's influence in the New World, particularly through trade, especially in fur, and to find a route to Asia. His voyages led to the founding of Quebec in 1608, marking the beginning of permanent French settlement in Canada. Champlain's explorations also contributed to mapping the region and establishing relationships with Indigenous peoples.
