John Cabot, an Italian explorer sailing under the English flag, embarked on his voyage in 1497 to find a westward route to Asia. He departed from Bristol, England, and crossed the Atlantic Ocean, eventually reaching the coast of North America, likely in present-day Newfoundland or Nova Scotia. His journey marked one of the earliest European explorations of the North American continent. Cabot's expeditions laid the groundwork for later English claims to land in the New World.
