Europeans first set foot in the New World in the late 15th century, with Christopher Columbus's voyage in 1492 marking a significant moment when he arrived in the Caribbean. Norse explorers, led by Leif Erikson, are believed to have reached parts of North America around the year 1000, specifically in areas now known as Newfoundland, Canada. However, Columbus's expeditions initiated widespread exploration and colonization by various European powers.
