The exploration of the New World by Christopher Columbus in 1492 is a notable example of an expedition that crossed into territory belonging to a European nation. Columbus, sponsored by Spain, landed in the Bahamas, claiming the lands for the Spanish crown, despite the fact that they were already inhabited by Indigenous peoples. This voyage marked the beginning of extensive European exploration and colonization in the Americas, altering the course of history.
It made Europeans eager to explore new lands. More investments were aimed at exploration of new lands and discovery of new wealth.
Christopher Columbus is one of the most well-known explorers who crossed the Atlantic Ocean, reaching the Americas in 1492. He encountered various indigenous civilizations, including the Taíno people in the Caribbean. On the Pacific side, Ferdinand Magellan led the first expedition to circumnavigate the globe, reaching the Philippines in 1521 and making contact with local tribes. Both explorers played pivotal roles in opening the Americas to European exploration and colonization.

Christopher Columbus's voyage in 1492, which landed in the Americas, can be considered an exploration crossing into territory belonging to European nations. This event led to the subsequent colonization and exploitation of the indigenous peoples and resources of the Americas by European powers.
pooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooop hey
It was Lewis and Clark's Voyage of Discovery which began in 1804. With the Louisiana Purchase completed in 1803, the French had ceded their territory to the U.S. The British claimed much of what later became the Oregon Territory, although there were also French and American trappers in the area. Spain still claimed much of the area southwest of the Louisiana Territory, but the expedition did not travel that far south. So I suspect it was British territory that Lewis & Clark ventured in to.pike 1806-1807

The two continents whose territory is crossed by the equator are Africa, Asia, and South America.
I remember Vasco Nunez de Balboa because he was a Spanish explorer who crossed the Isthmus of Panama and became the first European to see the Pacific Ocean from the Americas. His discovery was a significant achievement in the age of exploration and expanded European knowledge of the world.
He lead the first European expedition deep into the territory of the modern-day United States, and was the first European documented to have crossed the Mississippi River.
Hernando de Soto (c.1496/1497-1542) was a Spanish explorer and conquistador who, while leading the first European expedition deep into the territory of the modern-day United States, was the first European documented to have crossed the Mississippi river. :)
They left Missouri and crossed Kansas, Nebraska and Utah to reach Oregon Territory.
