So far this is what I have:
·1450- Great League of Peace and Power was formed by The Iroquois
·1472- a Portuguese explorer might have reached Newfoundland [João Vaz Corte-Real]
·1492- Christopher Columbus reaches San Salvador, they have discovered the New World and came across Arawak and Taíno people. Columbus thought they were Indians and called them Indians.
·1494- Spain and Portugal is divided by the Treaty of Tordesillas
·1497-1498- John and Sebastian Cabot explore the east cost of North
·1497- John Cabot claimed Newfoundland for Canada thus to go to further explorations
·1498- John Cabot made a second voyage to North America; he was looking for the Northwest Passage to India. He traveled the coasts of Labrador, New Brunswick, and Nova Scotia, and he traded furs with Micmacs.
Thanks for your help =D
