For Henry Hudson, North America was an uncharted frontier rich with potential for exploration and trade. He sought a northwest passage to Asia, driven by the promise of new routes and resources. His voyages in the early 17th century led to significant discoveries, including the Hudson River, which opened up opportunities for future colonization and commerce. Ultimately, Hudson's encounters laid the groundwork for European interest in the region.
