The events you mentioned refer to different exploration voyages. Here's a brief timeline to identify which occurred first:
-
Columbus (from Spain to Cuba) - Christopher Columbus made his first voyage to the Americas in 1492, reaching Cuba among other islands.
-
Cabot (from England to Canada) - John Cabot (Giovanni Caboto) sailed from England to the northeastern coast of North America in 1497, which is often referred to as modern-day Canada.
-
Cabot (from England to America) - This refers to the same voyage as above, as the term "America" can broadly include northern territories but typically denotes the continent.
-
Verrazano (from France to America) - Giovanni da Verrazzano explored the eastern coast of North America for France in 1524.
In summary, Columbus's voyage to Cuba in 1492 happened first, followed by Cabot's voyage to Canada in 1497, and then Verrazano's exploration in 1524.
