Juan Ponce de Leon

He went on a ship with him

Spain

You are asking about Ponce de Leon. He actually wasn't looking for a fountain of youth ( this is another one of these fables that somehow became history). The original version of the fountain of youth came to Europe through India over a 1000 years before de Leon. Like most explorers of his time he was looking for a water route to Asia.

He found Florida and he really wasn't looking for a fountain of youth. That is just a legend. The original story comes from India and the Silk Road brought it to Europe.

No-one. Ponce de Leon was highly regarded among his peers and by the Spanish Crown. The only ones to understandably resent his efforts were the Calusa indians when he tried to colonize their territory for Spain. They got their own back by shooting him in the thigh with a poisoned arrow. Ponce the Leon had to give up his expedition and died shortly afterwards of the effects of the poison.

A blow boat.

West. That is why he found Florida and named it.

They are really serious abut war.

He didn't know where he was going, most sailors were tough men so he had to maintain control. Lack of food, water, and no restrooms.

His expedition had three ships,: the Santa Maria , the Santiago and the San Cristobal . and he died from illiness

There is a widely circulated legend that Juan Ponce de Leon explored Florida because he was searching for the (nonexistent) Fountain of Youth, but historians generally agree that this was not the case. The likely explanation for the explorations of de Leon is that he was searching for gold, and contributing to the expansion of the Spanish Empire, for which he worked. Florida did become a Spanish colony, but was eventually seized by the US during the Spanish American War.

Ponce De Leon found the state of Florida.
