John Cabot and Christopher Columbus both embarked on voyages during the Age of Exploration with the goal of finding new trade routes and lands. Each explorer received backing from European monarchs—Columbus from Spain and Cabot from England—reflecting the competitive spirit of their nations. Both sought to reach Asia but instead encountered the Americas, significantly altering European perceptions of the world. Their expeditions contributed to the expansion of European influence and colonization in the New World.
