He searched for a route to India by trying to sail through the Northwest Passage in northern Canada.   Hudson Bay and Hudson Strait in Canada are named after him, as well as the Hudson River in the US.  He made four voyages in four years before he disappeared in the north.  As one of the Inuit people has said, "He was a white man who came north, got lost, and died, and had a bay named after him."  His contributions to the world are a matter of perspective, I guess.   These are good links that describe his voyages.  I hope they help.

As trade between Native Americans and European settlers grew and as the Indians received European goods, traditional hunting and trading practices disappeared. Tribes began to compete with each other over trade with the Europeans.  \n\nFirst, as skilled hunters and suppliers of pelts, the Indians were sought after as trading partners and were exposed to white culture. \n\nIn exchange for their goods, the Indians received European products, both practical, such as iron tools and utensils, and decorative, such as bright-colored cloth and beads. \n\nThe Indians also received firearms and liquor, both of which had an enormous impact on Indian lifeways. \n\nA second and devastating effect from trade with whites was the outbreak of European diseases among the Indian population. \n\nA third effect was the long-term ecological disruption of the food chain by the depletion of fur-bearing mammals. \n\nAnd finally, the fur trade had another long-term impact in the Indians by bringing whites onto their lands. \n\nAfter the white traders, trappers, and hunters came the trading and military posts, and after the posts came the settlers.  Resulting in the loss of Native American lands.\n\nMost of what I could find was on the "fur trade", but you can also check the site below it contains more indepth information.  Hope this helps.  Good luck.

Thomas Jefferson (April 13, 1743 N.S. – July 4, 1826) was the third President of the United States (1801–1809), author of the Declaration of Independence (1776), and one of the most influential founders of the United States. Major events during his presidency include the Louisiana Purchase (1803), the Embargo Act of 1807, and the Lewis and Clark Expedition (1804–1806).\n\nAnd check out the link below.

I can't write the whole conclusion for you, because as far as I can tell, what you've written so far, is the intro. I don't know what you have for the body of the essay. But, you could include something like: \n\n"In conclusion, we can see that there are many differences between Poland and America, but we can appreciate the similarities even more, when we stop to consider important people such as the great engineer, Thaddeus Kosciusko, who served with General George Washington, in the American Revolution, to help the Colonies defeat the British; and the tremendous contribution to humanity by the wonderful scientist, Madame Marie Curie (who was Polish). Frédéric François Chopin, the great composer, has also added some beauty to our American culture. (etc)\n\nGood Luck, and Have Fun!!

Mainly because he represented the European White male oppression of many of the "New World's" inhabitants.  Supposedly, he brought about rapid changes and started the "takeover" of cultures that last to this day.  Therefore, his "discovery" is interpreted by many people to be a repressive, evil point in human history.  Simply put, he represents the original Western World suppression of minority races by white Eurpoean people.

Henry Hudson (1565–1611) was an English sea explorer and navigator in the early seventeenth century. His date and place of birth are unknown, but September 12, 1570 is often given, and he is sometimes said to have been born in London. He is presumed to have died in 1611 in Hudson Bay, Canada, after he had been set adrift by mutinous crewmen.\n\nHudson's early life is an unknown, but he obviously must have spent many years at sea. He is said to have begun as a cabin boy at 16 and gradually worked his way up to captain.

The Columbian Exchange (also sometimes known as The Grand Exchange) has been one of the significant events in the history of world ecology, agriculture, and culture. The term is used to describe the enormous widespread exchange of agricultural goods, livestock, slave labor, communicable diseases, and ideas between the Eastern and Western Hemispheres that occurred after 1492. That year, Christopher Columbus' first voyage launched an era of large-scale contact between the Old and the New World that resulted in this ecological revolution: hence the name "Columbian" Exchange.

Well I love the chance to answer a history question, expecially one about Columbus who in 1492 sailed the ocean blue.  \n\nHe acutally went on his voyage from the direction of Queen Isabella of Spain who wanted to have the first chance to get a Walmart franchise in her country., but alas when Columbus arrived here he found out the Walmart did not franchise, so he talked Isabella into a K-mark which is now bankrupt.\n\nShe also wanted him to bring back the recipe for turkey burgers and fishsticks for she wanted to open fast food resturants in Spain.\n\nNow what did he get:\n\nA holiday named after him\n\nA city in Ohio named after him\n\nHerpes\n\nThe love and devotion of millions of italians (why I don't know)\n\nA song about his voyages\n\nWhoops, I goofed up I am not sure that I gave four reasons, I may have given less or maybe more, but considering the fact that they are not really true who gives a sh...t....\n\nHave a nice day, keep smiling and have a sense of humor...

It is largely believed now that Zhang He, a Admiral from China, had landed on America ahead of Columbus. \n\nHistory as we were taught are being re-written.

He might not be the hero that people think he he was.\nProof of the vikings landing there before him might have survived.\nThe Pilgrim Fathers might have not bothered to colonise.\nThe Indigenous people may have divided the land with a tribal influence, instead of The United States.\nLord Cornwallis would have stayed at home and grown old.\nBoston Harbour would not have had a tea party.\nPlace names in America would not have been taken from Europe,ie, New York, New Jersey, LIVERPOOL, and would have all been Indian.\nImmigrants are and have been the life blood of the Americas and also the biggest perceived problem for the future, save terrorism.and if Columbus had not landed, you would be a far different person than you are today.\nGod Bless America.

~I've done some research on this for you.  You have several options.  Here's a few for your perusal:\n\n1.  The Dutch bought Manhattan with glass beads\n\n2.  The Tahitians found Hawaii uninhabited and settled the archipelago\n\n3.  Uncle Sam stole Hawaii by force\n\n4.  My favorite,  the Spanish stood on the beach in Panama and claimed the entire Pacific, then got the Pope to back them up on it, much to the chagrin of the Japanese, Polynesians, Indonesians and everyone in between.\n\n5.  The British told the Maoris that they couldn't eat people anymore and starved them out of New Zealand.\n\n6.  Everybody walked into Sicily and whoever was in occupation at the time said "take it, it's yours", but nobody every wanted to keep it long (choose your island wisely, you can get a lemon)\n\n7.  The Russians simply said the Kurils are ours - not real effective because the Japanese thought it was such a neat idea, they said it too.  Stay tuned, this one's still up for grabs.\n\n8.  A more contemporary approach, the US nuked the snot out of Bikini.   (But Unc Sammy can't quite put up condos yet.  It'll be a few more months before even the cockroaches and rats can return without glowing in the dark and having 6 headed offspring.)\n\n9.    A more practical solution, in keeping with what I presume  to be your budget :  Get a shovel;  go to your back yard; scrape away all the grass and dig a hole about 6 inches deep, level across the bottom (otherwise, shape and dimensions at your discretion);  build numerous piles of dirt, stone and sod throughout the hole at varying heights between 7 and 12 inches; get your garden hose;  turn on the water and fill the hole with water to the top;  give the hole some exotic and spiffy name, call it a country and appoint yourself monarch/despot/president/god (it's your country, be whatever you want to be or can be - like joining the army); send a letter to the State Department and announce that you have declared your independence and have  seceded from the union.  Voila, you now are the proud owner of a group of islands in your own country (until the tanks roll).
