People have been moving since the birth of man. They have moved for many different reasons. They might've moved because of the climate, government or to just get away and adventure out. Whatever the reason, thank goodness they did.
       Many early explorers didn't know where exactly they were going. That is what made them so great. After Columbus started to claim land for Italy, the other countries wanted the same opportunity so they sent explorers. Spain sent Ponce de Leon and some other explorers to claim land in the New World. Eventually the countries that claimed land started moving to the New World for because they wanted to control the economy of the New World.
