A lot of people might claim to have “discovered” the US, but the US was in fact “discovered” by European explorers in the 16th century.  Some of the most famous explorers to discover the US were Christopher Columbus, Giovanni da Verrazzano, and Amerigo Vespucci.

Giovanni da Verrazzano is widely credited with the discovery of the Atlantic coast of the US, as he was the first to navigate this coast, and he also charted it in great detail.  He was a very well-respected navigator and also in a group called “the Florentine Militia”, which were made up of explorers and sailors.
