Who were the first known Europeans in North America?

The French explorers.

The British colonists.

The Spanish conquerors.

The Vikings from Iceland.

The first known Europeans in North America were actually the Vikings from Iceland. While the French explorers and British colonists did claim parts of North America, they did so much later than the Vikings. The Spanish conquerors were focused on claiming areas in Central and South America, not North America. Therefore, the Vikings from Iceland are the most accurate and early answer for the first known Europeans in North America.
