Hernando de Soto explored the southeastern United States during the early 1540s. His expedition took him through areas that are now part of Florida, Georgia, the Carolinas, Tennessee, Alabama, Mississippi, Arkansas, and Louisiana. De Soto was the first European to document the Mississippi River, which he crossed in 1541. His explorations significantly contributed to European knowledge of the interior of North America.
