The Southwest

Spanish conquistador Francisco Vasquez de Coronado was the first explorer of North America's Southwest. Fired by tales of the legendary Seven Cities of Cibola and their alleged riches, Coronado left New Spain (Mexico) in 1540 with 300 soldiers and eventually became the first European to set eyes on the Grand Canyon.
