Nesterboy [21]

Answer:

Perhaps Vespucci's most important contribution, however, was his realization that the continent he was exploring was not Asia. It was, in fact, a continent previously unknown to most Europeans. Eventually the continents of the western hemisphere became known as North and South America – named after Amerigo Vespucci.

Explanation:

He was praised for finding land beyond the current European frontier. This land was America and not Asia which was previously what people thought.
