John Cabot was encouraged to sail by King Henry VII of England, who supported his plans to explore the New World. Cabot sought royal patronage to establish a trade route to Asia, believing he could find a shorter passage. His voyages in the late 15th century were motivated by the promise of wealth and new lands for England.
