Amerigo Vespucci traveled to America primarily as an explorer and navigator, commissioned by European powers to chart and map the New World. His voyages in the late 15th and early 16th centuries contributed to the understanding that the lands discovered by Columbus were part of a new continent, separate from Asia. Vespucci's detailed accounts of his travels helped shape European perceptions of the Americas, leading to the continent being named after him.
