European explorers reach North America, led by John Cabot's eastern coast expedition.

Italian explorer John Cabot's expedition marked the beginning of European presence in North America. Sailing under the English flag in 1497, Cabot's arrival on the eastern coast of what is now the United States opened the door to further exploration and eventual colonization of the continent. This momentous event paved the way for future European expeditions, leading to significant historical developments such as the establishment of European colonies and the eventual founding of the United States. Cabot's journey contributed to the shaping of American history and set the stage for the cultural exchange, conflicts, and interactions that would define the relationship between the Old World and the New World. #EuropeanExplorers #JohnCabot #Exploration #Colonization #NorthAmerica
