Age of Exploration
The Vikings settled Greenland, starting around 986 AD. Eric the Red and his son Leif, explored further west. For a short time they established a temporary settlment on New Foundland. They were not able to subdue the Native Americans and the Vikings were soon forced to abandon the settlement in New Foundland.
