In 1496, King Henry VII of England, ka dib guulaha Spain iyo Portugal ee sahaminta dibada, ayaa u xilsaaray John Cabot in uu hogaamiyo safar si loo ogaado wadada Aasiya iyada oo loo marayo Waqooyiga Atlantikada. Cabot wuxuu safray 1497, shan sano ka dib markii Yurubta Yurub ay ogaadeen Ameerika, laakiin wuxuu ka soo degay xeebta Newfoundland, oo, si qalad ah u aaminsan (sida Christopher Columbus) inuu gaadhay Aasiya, ma jirin isku day ah in la aasaaso gumeysi. Cabot wuxuu safar kale ku tagay Ameerika sanadka soo socda, laakiin marnaba lama maqal maraakiibtiisa mar kale.
