Various European explorers and nations established claims in the New World during the Age of Exploration. Christopher Columbus, sailing for Spain, is often credited with claiming parts of the Caribbean for Spain in 1492. Following him, explorers like Hernán Cortés and Francisco Pizarro claimed large territories in the Americas for Spain, while other nations, such as France and England, also established their own claims through explorers like Jacques Cartier and John Cabot. These claims often led to colonization and significant geopolitical changes in the region.
France's claim to territory in the New World was established primarily by explorer Jacques Cartier in the 1530s. His voyages led to the exploration of the St. Lawrence River and the region that would become Canada, where he claimed land for France. Cartier's expeditions laid the groundwork for further French exploration and colonization in North America, including the establishment of New France.
