Christopher Columbus was the first European man to discover the Bahamas and Hispaniola (modern day Haiti and Dominican Republic) when he made landfall in the area in 1492. The Spanish continued to explore this area and inspired other explorers, especially from Portugal, to come to this area as well. Hispaniola is the site of the first European colonies in the New World.
