Giovanni da Verrazzano is born in Italy, he worked under France, and he was looking for a sea route to the Pacific Ocean. But, he discover New York Harbor for mistaking Pamlico Sound for the Pacific. The Verrazano Bridge is named after him, for the first known European navigator in the service of the French crown to enter New York Harbor and the Hudson River. Without him, the world would be different by, there wouldn't be a bridge called the "Verrazano Bridge". There also wouldn't be a place called "New York Harbor" in the map. Last, the history would be changed of how Verrazzano is the first known European to enter New York Harbor and the Hudson River.
