The Hudson founded New York harbor because "he had navigated the area and knew of a waterway".
<u>Explanation:</u>
In 1609 Hudson was selected to sail across northern Russia via the Arctic Ocean to get to the Far East. Hudson traveled in the Half Moon on April 6, a merely 73-ton ship with a crew of eighteen to twenty people. He explored the North American coast and discovered the Delaware Bay a year before the English did, and his ship reached New York's port on September 3, and soon afterwards began climbing the Hudson River to see if it could find a way down that road.
The <u><em>Aztec</em></u> were an ancient civilization that settled in Mexico and were thought to be very brutal and violent, offering human sacrifices and going to war with neighboring people.
