    European explorers and colonists brought diseases like smallpox and measles to North America that devastated the indigenous populations. The French explored parts of Canada and the Mississippi River region, establishing fur trading outposts like Quebec City. The Spanish colonized Florida and parts of Central and South America, as well as the southwestern United States, seeking gold and converts to Catholicism.
