The Northwest

In 1724, Danish navigator Vitus Jonassen Bering was sent by Peter the Great to explore the water routes between Siberia and North America, proving that North America and Asia were not connected. In 174, another voyage to North America ended in shipwreck. Bering eventually perished on the uninhabited island subsequently named after him.
