Samuel de Champlain and Jacques Cartier were sent by Francis I of France. They were commissioned to find the fabled Western Passage to the Orient.
Jacques Cartier's middle name is "Cartier." He is often referred to simply as Jacques Cartier, as "Cartier" is his surname. Born in 1491, he was a French explorer known for his expeditions to Canada and for claiming the territory for France. His contributions were significant in the early European exploration of North America.

Jacques Cartier's primary goal was to explore and claim new territories for France in the New World, specifically seeking a northwest passage to Asia. He aimed to establish trade routes and find valuable resources, particularly gold and spices. His expeditions in the 1530s led him to the St. Lawrence River and the region that would become Canada, laying the groundwork for future French colonization in North America.

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.
Jacques Cartier and Verazzano both wanted to find a shorter route to Asia.
In 1524, Verrazano explored the Eastern coastline of North America from what is now North Carolina to Newfoundland. Eleven years later in 1535, he set sail for the New World with Jacques Cartier.
Giovanni da Verrazano sailed the Atlantic coast of North America in 1524. He was the first European to explore the Atlantic coast of North America since the Norse.

Both Giovanni da Verrazzano and Jacques Cartier aimed to explore and claim new territories for France in North America during the early 16th century. Verrazzano sought a westward route to Asia and aimed to establish trade relations, while Cartier's primary goal was to explore the St. Lawrence River and lay the groundwork for French colonization in Canada. Their expeditions were instrumental in expanding European knowledge of the continent and its indigenous peoples.
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.
