During Tudor times,a lot of people were trying to find new lands like one man John Cabot .He had set of on May second 1497 and eventually he had come across a new found land witch is now part of Canada .
John Cabot had left from Bristol heading to India .He travelled on his boat,the Matthew,and he only had eighteen men .
When John Cabot finally reached land,he knew people had lived there because he noticed fishing nets and sticks painted red on both sides .Then he was thinkingf of leaving because of moquitoes and natives so he left.
He eventually set sail again on his way home,he had noticed some rare cod in the sea.
When he arrived home,hae came across the King to colllect his prize for discovering Canada .When he eventually spoke to the King about what he had done the King was happy but then again he wasnt so happy because Cabot didnt bring anything back .But the King did reward him 10 pounds for actually discovering Canada .
Finally Cabot returned home to Bristol on the 6th august John Cabot was never seen again after he set off on another journey.
