   Extractions: Introduction Although the Vikings traveled to North America more than 900 years ago, it was Christopher Columbus' good luck in 1492 that whipped Europe into a frenzy. Queen Isabella and King Ferdinand, the Spanish Monarchs whom funded Columbus' exploration, were the first to realize the potential wealth of the New World. Spain became the richest and most powerful nation in the world. "How long will it last? ........No one knows. More importantly, will other European Countries allow Spain to reign supreme? The Task Pirate Corrigan is a ruthless man who preys on explorers. He has assigned your motley group to spy on the European Explorers whom are heading to North America. Pirate Corrigan requests that all groups create a death warrant (via a web page) for only the most exceptional explorer.

   Extractions: The inhabitants were kind, but shy. The men could never be persuaded to take their wives on board the ship of the Florentine. "One of the two kings," he said, "often came with his queen and many attendants to see the vessel," but the women were kept at a distance. The country seemed to be very fertile, and abounded in their season with apples, plums, filberts and other kinds of fruit and nuts; and in the forests were great numbers of deers, lynxes and other wild animals. The dwellings of the people were generally circular in form, and built of split logs; and sometimes they were large enough to accommodate a family of twenty-five or thirty persons. From Narragansett Bay, Verazzani sailed eastward early in May, passing among the numerous islands off the coast of Massachusetts, and touching somewhere, probably, on the coast of Maine. There he found the people coarser in appearance, less friendly, and more fierce and warlike. They were clad in the skins of the bear, the lynx, the deer and the seal. No signs of cultivation appeared, and the inhabitants seemed to live almost wholly on the products of the forest and the waters. The hills were covered with vast woods; and far in the interior he saw lofty mountains. The voyagers had very little intercourse with these Indians, and sailing eastward and northward, came to Newfoundland. Thence they turned their prow toward Europe and sailed to France. Verazzani had traversed the borders of the North American continent, as his ship sailed, about two thousand miles, and he named the vast country New France.

    Extractions: The principal force for European exploration was an economic one. The Basque and the Bretons were among the first people to explore the New World. Transatlantic voyages were make to reach Asia. Geographical Knowledge at the Time of the Cabot Voyages During the late 15th century, Europe was on the verge of geographical expansion. Motives for exploration in the medieval era were diverse. An exchange of navigational knowledge between scholars and mariners. From Willem Janszoon Blaeu, The Light of Navigation (Amsterdam: William Iohnson, 1622) frontispiece. Found in A.W. Pollard and G.R. Redgrave, (London: Bibliographical Society, 1976-1991). STC reference # 3112, reel # 1127. Copy courtesy of the microfilm at the Queen Elizabeth II Library, St. John's, Newfoundland. Original housed in The Folger Shakespeare Library, Washington, D.C., USA. Some believe pressures on the spice trade routes forced Europe to seek other possibilities for importing these goods, others invoke personal initiative as the basic engine of European exploration. Restrictions upon diet and meat consumption by the Catholic Church was also an important factor in finding new fishing grounds and this in itself is held by many as the underlying reason for the exploration of the North Atlantic. No matter what the specific motives were, the principal force for exploration was an economic one. It is hard to determine what Europeans mariners of this era knew of the North Atlantic. We can only guess at specifics by studying contemporary maps. We also don't know if many Europeans had knowledge of Norse explorations and settlements from Greenland to Vinland. Papal knowledge of Greenland seems to have extended to the late 15th century, but the settlements had met with failure and the island-colony had faded away from the European psyche.

    Extractions: Naturalized as a citizen of the Republic of Venice (now Italy) in 1476, the experienced navigator Giovani Caboto known to the English as John Cabot was hired by King Henry VII of England in the mid-1490s to make a voyage of discovery westward, looking for a route to Asia Cabot left Bristol in May 1497. One month later, he saw land and disembarked briefly. He then skirted the shore for some 30 days without seeing anyone, and returned to England at the beginning of August, full of enthusiasm and convinced that he had reached Asia. In fact, Cabot was the first to report on a part of America after Christopher Columbus (1492) but his explorations were in colder regions, on the shores of what is Canada today. His landfall remains unknown. Neither a ship's log nor any authentic account of this voyage has been preserved. It is only because of numerous references found here and there that historians have been able to piece together Cabot's exploration in North America. On the whole, it is agreed that the navigator visited somewhere between Labrador and Cape Breton, most likely the east coast of Newfoundland. Page from Christopher Columbus's account In May 1498, John Cabot left Bristol to undertake another voyage of exploration (his third), from which he never returned. "He only found new lands at the bottom of the ocean" wrote one of his contemporaries. His son Sebastian, himself a navigator, undertook his father's explorations to North America.

Of course these sources are of utmost importance when studying the history of exploration. There is also a part on secondary sources , that is, sources that were written by others than the voyagers themselves, either based on information directly from the voyagers themselves, or on primary sources, which in some cases might be lost afterwards.
