Many explorations throughout history crossed into territories belonging to European nations, but one notable example is Christopher Columbus's voyages in the late 15th century. Columbus, sponsored by Spain, made landfall in the Bahamas in 1492, which led to the European colonization of the Americas. His expeditions often encroached upon lands inhabited by indigenous peoples and sparked conflicts with other European powers claiming territories in the New World.
